Job description

Occupational Therapist | Generalist Role | West Gladstone, QLD

Some roles give you variety... but no structure.

Others give you structure... but no flexibility.

This one sits comfortably in between.

We're working with a well-established allied health provider across regional Queensland that has built its model around balance — giving OTs a genuinely varied caseload, while still keeping workloads realistic and well supported.

The role

• Generalist position across adults and paediatrics
• Combination of clinic-based work and community visits
• Diverse caseload including NDIS, functional assessments, rehab and ongoing therapy
• Flexibility to lean into areas you enjoy as you settle into the role

What Makes This Role Different

• A thoughtful approach to caseload allocation — not just filling your calendar
• Expectations that are clear and achievable
• A team that shares knowledge, without overcomplicating processes
• Stability — low turnover and consistent support

Who This Would Suit

• An OT who enjoys variety and wants to keep developing across different areas
• Someone looking for a role that feels structured but not restrictive
• Open to both early career and experienced clinicians

Essentials

• AHPRA registration
• Driver's licence (for community work)

What's On Offer

• Competitive salary + travel reimbursement
• Flexible working arrangements
• Ongoing professional development
• A supportive, established team environment
