About us:

Horizon Allied Health, is a provider of a range of occupational therapy services. We have been around for over a decade and keeping things simple is preferred.

In this job advert you won’t find a fancy video or website of how big we are, the number of staff we have or retreats our staff attend.
Our employees are our most valued asset. Investing in our staff and having clear career pathways whether these evolve organically or forged specifically is important to our company’s growth and for service excellence.

We do not have a revolving door of OTs passing through the practice.

We are a stable team of occupational therapists with most of our OTs, working at the company for several years.

We value our great company culture that we have built, and would like you to join us, but if joining a large company with lots of bells and whistles is something that appeals to you then (this is probably the last thing I should be writing when advertising a job) we may not be a fit for you.
