Are you ready to kickstart your career in paediatric OT – and want more than just a “graduate job”?
We’re looking for a passionate new or recent graduate Occupational Therapist to join our REHAB team, working with children with physical and complex needs such as cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, spina bifida, brain injury and more.

Whether you’re fresh out of uni or just finding your feet in the profession, we’ve created an environment where early career therapists thrive – and love what they do.

🌱 Why Start Your Career With Us?

At South West Kids Clinic, we don’t just offer a job – we offer you a career launchpad:

Dedicated mentoring from expert OTs

Weekly supervision and group case discussions

Unlimited PD budget for approved training

A personalised growth plan to map out your future goals

Wellbeing check-ins and team support every step of the way

You’ll join a fun, close-knit multidisciplinary team (OTs, Physios, Speech Pathologists, Dietitians, and Therapy Assistants) working collaboratively to help kids achieve their goals in movement, independence, and everyday life.

🚀 What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll support children with a range of physical and neurological conditions through interventions such as:

Upper limb rehabilitation

Casting, splinting, and equipment prescription

Therapy intensives (including Pediasuit)

School holiday workshops and group therapy

Creative, play-based sessions that make therapy fun!

If you're new to these – don't worry. You’ll be guided by experienced therapists and backed by a team that prioritises your learning.

💫 What Makes Us Different?

Therapist-owned and led – your leader is an OT too!

Flexible work week – 4-day option available

A full suite of resources – including your own therapy room, onsite gym, and access to shared company cars

Genuine team connection – from retreat days to team dinners, we’re big on celebrating wins

Admin support so you can focus on your clients, not paperwork

🎯 What We’re Looking For

A soon-to-be or recent OT graduate (new grads encouraged to apply!)

Someone excited to grow their skills in paediatric neuro

A creative, energetic therapist who brings fun into sessions

A team player who thrives in a supportive and collaborative workplace
