What we're looking for

  • Tertiary qualifications in Occupational Therapy with current AHPRA registration.
  • Minimum 2 years of post-graduate clinical experience.
  • Strong clinical reasoning skills with proven expertise across physical, cognitive, and psychosocial presentations.
  • Strong clinical reasoning and problem-solving skills, with the ability to adapt interventions to meet individual patient needs
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills to work collaboratively with clients, families, and professionals.
  • Demonstrated commitment to evidence-based practice and continuous professional development.
  • A passion for mentoring, leadership, and growing a positive team culture.

What we offer

At Auburn Health, we are committed to supporting the professional and personal growth of our employees. In this role, you can expect:

  • Competitive salary with superannuation and professional development allowance.
  • Flexible working arrangements supporting work-life balance.
  • Opportunities for leadership development and career progression within a rapidly growing organisation.
  • A supportive, collaborative culture with structured supervision and peer mentoring.
  • Access to modern resources and a dynamic workplace focused on clinical excellence.
  • Birthday Leave: Enjoy your birthday as a paid day off.
  • Paid Study Leave: Time to focus on advancing your skills.
  • After 2 years, staff may take a paid week off to pursue professional or personal growth (e.g., travel, volunteer work or research project)
  • Access to an allocated PA for admin (appointments, bills, travel bookings).
  • Incentive bonus above the expected billing thresholds.
