We're looking for a therapist with ideally between 1 to 5 years of experience who is keen to help deliver NDIS community therapy, and (optionally) regularly supervise and coach regular small cohorts of allied health placement students and student support workers. We're collaborating with universities to provide quality student learning experiences.

We aim for a best of both worlds approach, providing top notch services while minimising therapist burnout - long term we aim for caseloads close together, and a varied caseload that doesn't have too much of one thing.

Cultural Fit:

We're looking for therapists who get a kick out of helping people to achieve their goals and live a great life (whether they're aged 5 or 105), and who have great ideas and suggestions to help improve our team and how we do things. If you love healthcare, enjoy innovating, and/or want to help coach university students as well, you'll be a great fit.

Flexibility:

Work between 4 or 5 days per week according to your preference with flexi-time arrangements + work from home or office. We aim for at least 1 day in the office to facilitate collaboration, trainings, supervision and

Our therapists aim for 3 to 4 community sessions a day, which gives our therapists the chance to aim for the quality of services they want to provide, and not feel so rushed that they compromise therapeutic outcomes, as well as time to supervise allied health student support workers.

Caseload Autonomy!

Schedule and manage your caseload according to what works. We feel it is important when possible to schedule therapist caseloads at times that work for everyone, in the locations that work for everyone, and to work with the caseload they feel most confident with - while still ensuring you're still growing and developing new skills, and occasionally getting outside your comfort zone.

Work from Home or Office!

Our therapists have the option of working from home whenever they need, or they can attend our offices and co-working spaces when they're not delivering services in the community. We have a beautiful Perth Office in the CBD that helps you to enjoy working away from home, and a therapy dog called Bruno who'll occasionally be in too.
