Meaningful work, close to home

At Common Ground Health, we're building something regional communities have been missing: high-quality allied health delivered locally, by clinicians who live where they work. No long commutes, no feeling like a small cog in a big machine — just rewarding work helping people in your own community live fuller, more independent lives.

We're looking for a Senior Occupational Therapist ready to share and grow their clinical skills supporting NDIS, Private & Aged Care participants in a supportive, quality-focused team.

About the role

You'll work with participants of varying ages and abilities, helping them build capacity, independence and confidence in everyday life. Day to day, you'll:

Complete functional capacity assessments and contribute to NDIS reports and plan reviews

Prescribe assistive technology and recommend home modifications

Develop and review goal-based, participant-led therapy plans

Support daily living skills, independence, and community participation

Work with participants living with disability, developmental differences and complex needs

Collaborate with families, support coordinators and a connected multidisciplinary care team

Keep clear, quality clinical documentation aligned with NDIS requirements

Quality and supervision at the core

We take clinical quality seriously, and we back our clinicians to do their best work:

Regular, structured clinical supervision — not an afterthought, but part of how we operate

A robust clinical governance framework and genuine peer support

Realistic caseloads and admin time that respects the quality of your work

A team culture where asking questions and learning is expected, not just tolerated

Room to grow

This is a stepping stone, not a ceiling. As part of a growing multi-site network, you'll have:

Career opportunities to match your life.

A generous professional development allowance and dedicated PD time

Mentoring from experienced clinicians and exposure to varied, complex caseloads

The chance to help shape services in a growing organisation

About you

Tertiary qualification in Occupational Therapy and full AHPRA registration

Multiple years post-graduate experience

Experience in NDIS, paediatric, disability, aged care or community settings is highly regarded

A participant-centred approach and genuine care for the people you support

NDIS Worker Screening Check and Working with Children Check (or willingness to obtain)
