Looking to make a lasting impact beyond the traditional clinical setting? Join Goodstart Early Learning as an Occupational Therapist Coach and play a key role in supporting children, families and educators across the Logan region in Queensland.

This is a unique opportunity to work in natural, everyday learning environments — not in a clinic. You'll coach and collaborate with early childhood educators and families to build their confidence, capability, and strategies to help children thrive.

Your work will focus on early intervention and inclusion, supporting vulnerable children to participate meaningfully in their learning and social worlds. Rather than one-on-one therapy sessions, you'll be creating change that has ripple effects across communities.

Role: Occupational Therapy Coach

Location: Logan, QLD

Employment Type: Part-time 22.8 hours per week - 2 Year Fixed Term

Not your typical OT job.
