New Grad / Early Career OT - Tell us your caseload dreams!

Start strong with mentoring, flexibility & real support

Kickstart your OT career with a team that’s got your back — growth, guidance, and genuine balance from day one.

Fresh out of uni (or nearly there)? You’ve mastered the theory, and have the energy and heart for helping people — now you just need a workplace that’ll back you up, not burn you out.

Welcome to Facilitate OT, where you’ll get the mentoring, flexibility, and real-world experience you need to build your career your way.

We’re an OT-led practice that’s been around the block — and our new grads thrive because we do things differently: smaller caseloads, structured support, and a team that genuinely cares how you’re going.

We know every new grad has their own interests (and a few “no thanks” areas too). That’s why we help you shape a caseload that fits what you actually want to explore — whether that’s paediatrics, adult disability, or something in between. You’ll start with a clear focus, build confidence, and have the freedom to evolve as your skills (and curiosity) grow.

If you change your mind or discover a new passion, we’ll help you pivot and expand your scope — because your career shouldn’t stay in one lane unless you want it to.

Here’s what’s in it for you

🧠 Weekly mentoring & supervision: Hands-on guidance from senior OTs.

🎯 Manageable targets: Build confidence before you build caseload.

🌿 Flexibility from day one: Full-time, part-time, or something in between.

🤝 Real support: Admin and OT assistants who make your day smoother.

🚀 Career growth: PD budget, provisional registration support, and a clear pathway forward.

💼 Everything covered: Insurance, memberships, EAP, rego — sorted.

💰 Competitive salary: Because new doesn’t mean underpaid.
