Job description

Exercise Physiologist — Townsville, QLD

Full-Time or Part-Time | $85,000–$90,000 + Super + Benefits

What if the best thing about your next EP role wasn't the salary — but the fact that you actually get to do the job properly?

At Proactive Health, we don't compress your caseload into 15-minute slots and call it clinical care. We give you the time, the variety, and the team around you to practice the way you were trained to — across the full scope of what an Accredited Exercise Physiologist can offer.

This is a genuine multidisciplinary clinic. Not a physio practice that added an EP to the letterhead. You'll work alongside physiotherapists, occupational therapists, podiatrists, dietitians, and social workers who actually coordinate care together, not just share a waiting room.

And Townsville? If you haven't been, it's not what you think. Year-round sun, Magnetic Island 20 minutes offshore, a genuinely affordable cost of living, and a community that actually knows your name. It's the kind of place where you can buy a house, not just rent a room.

Your Week, Not a Job Description

Tuesday morning: you're running a supervised exercise session for a DVA veteran managing cardiovascular disease. Mid-morning, you're conducting an initial assessment for an NDIS participant working toward functional independence. After lunch, a home visit for an aged care client under a Home Care Package. Late afternoon, a Medicare EPC consultation with a post-surgical client. Between appointments, you're collaborating with your physio and OT colleagues about shared patients — because that's how this clinic actually works.

Your caseload spans DVA, Medicare, NDIS, Home Care Packages, workers' compensation, and private clients. That's not a bullet point — that's the reason your clinical reasoning stays sharp and your weeks never feel repetitive.

Requirements

• ESSA accreditation (AEP) or eligibility
• Tertiary qualification in Exercise Physiology
• Current insurance or willingness to obtain
• Police Check and NDIS Worker Screening (current or willing to obtain)
• Strong clinical reasoning and communication skills

New graduates: yes, genuinely. We have a structured program and experienced mentors ready to support you from day one.

Benefits

• A caseload that prioritises quality over volume — sustainable workloads that let you deliver care properly
• A salary that reflects your value — $85K–$90K + super, discussed openly at interview based on experience
• Dedicated mentorship — whether you're a new grad or mid-career, you'll have experienced clinicians around you who genuinely invest in your development
• The Proactive Health Academy — structured CPD, professional development, and clinical education that keeps you at the front of your profession
• Clear career pathways — senior clinician, team lead, clinic management, or clinic ownership. Your progression, your pace.
• A Graduate Program that actually prepares you — structured, mentored, and designed to build confidence, not just fill a roster
• Staff rewards and wellbeing support — retail discounts, wellbeing centre access, and a team culture that actually checks in on each other
• The independence of private practice with the infrastructure and support of a national network across 450+ locations

Proactive Health is committed to fostering a welcoming environment where everyone feels valued, respected and given genuine opportunity.

We also believe recruitment should remain personal. At Proactive Health, applications are reviewed by real people, not filtered or rejected by artificial intelligence screening tools. We are proud to offer a recruitment process that remains human centred, thoughtful and fair.
