Job description

Occupational Therapist - Excellent for Grads, Junior and Intermediate Clinicians

Graduate, Junior or Intermediate OT | Melbourne's North | Mixed Caseload & Amazing Support!

Looking for an OT role where you can actually enjoy your work, explore different clinical areas and have the support to become a great clinician?

Whether you're graduating at the end of 2026, starting your OT career in 2027, or already have a year or two of experience under your belt, this could be exactly what you're looking for.

An exciting opportunity is available for Graduate, Junior and Intermediate Occupational Therapists to join a growing multidisciplinary allied health team in Melbourne's Northern Suburbs.

And here's what makes this opportunity exciting...

A Caseload That Actually Interests You

Love working with kids? Prefer adults? Interested in mental health, neurological conditions or assistive technology?

Your caseload can be tailored around your interests, strengths and career goals.

Depending on your preferences, you could gain experience across:

• Paediatrics & Early Intervention – Supporting children with developmental delays, autism, ADHD, sensory processing challenges and emotional regulation.
• Adult Disability & NDIS – Helping adults build independence, develop daily living skills and achieve meaningful goals.
• Neurological Rehabilitation – Working with clients recovering from stroke, acquired brain injuries and neurological conditions.
• Assistive Technology – Assessing and prescribing equipment that makes a real difference to people's independence.
• Home Modifications – Helping clients create safer, more accessible and functional living environments.
• Functional Capacity Assessments – Developing your assessment, clinical reasoning and reporting skills.
• Mental Health & Psychosocial Disability – Supporting clients with emotional regulation, routines, executive functioning and everyday participation.
• Aged Care & Healthy Ageing – Helping older adults maintain independence and quality of life.
• Community & Everyday Living Skills – Supporting clients in their homes, schools and local communities.

Not sure what you want to specialise in yet? That's completely fine!

One of the biggest advantages of working in a mixed-caseload environment is having the chance to discover what you actually enjoy before deciding where you want your career to go.

The Best of Both Worlds – Clinic & Community

Some OTs love being in the clinic. Others love getting out into the community.

Why not enjoy a bit of both?

This role offers a combination of clinic and community-based therapy, giving you variety throughout your week.

You'll have opportunities to work alongside other allied health professionals in a collaborative clinic environment while also supporting clients in their homes, schools and communities.

It means more clinical variety, more opportunities to learn and a working week that doesn't feel exactly the same every day.

Graduates – Let's Set You Up Properly!

Your first OT role can shape your confidence, skills and enjoyment of the profession for years to come.

That's why finding the right graduate program and support network is so important.

For graduates, the focus is on building confidence and developing strong clinical foundations, rather than expecting you to know everything from day one.

The graduate support environment is designed around:

• Structured Graduate Development: A clear learning pathway to help you transition from university into clinical practice.
• Clinical Supervision & Mentoring: Guidance from experienced clinicians who can help build your confidence and clinical reasoning.
• Gradual Caseload Development: Opportunities to build your workload and independence as your skills progress.
• Shadowing & Learning Opportunities: Learn from experienced OTs and observe different assessments, interventions and presentations.
• Professional Development: Continued opportunities to expand your knowledge and explore areas that interest you.
• Multidisciplinary Learning: Work alongside other allied health professionals and learn how different disciplines approach client care.
• Support With Reports & Assessments: Develop your confidence with documentation, assessments and clinical decision‑making.

You should never feel like you're on your own trying to figure everything out.

The goal is to help you become a confident, capable and well-rounded OT while enjoying the process.

Already Have 1–3 Years of Experience?

Maybe you're enjoying OT but feel like you've outgrown your current role.

Maybe you're stuck doing the same assessments every week, not getting enough supervision, or wishing you could explore different areas of practice.

You don't need to be a graduate to want great support and opportunities to learn.

For Junior and Intermediate OTs, this is an opportunity to take the next step in your career.

You can build on your existing experience, broaden your clinical exposure, develop new skills and work towards areas that genuinely interest you.

Whether you want to become a highly skilled generalist, move towards a specialist area or eventually take on mentoring and leadership responsibilities, there's plenty of scope to develop your career.

What Are We Looking For?

We're keen to hear from Occupational Therapists at different stages of their careers:

• 2026 / 2027 Graduates looking for their first OT position.
• Junior OTs with approximately 6–18 months of experience who want stronger support or more variety.
• Intermediate OTs with around 2–3 years of experience looking to broaden their skills or explore new areas.

Most importantly, we're looking for people who are curious, enthusiastic, eager to learn and genuinely enjoy helping others.

Interested? Let's Have a Chat!

If you're a Graduate, Junior or Intermediate Occupational Therapist in Melbourne's North and want to explore a role with a mixed caseload, clinic and community variety, and genuine opportunities for professional development, we'd love to hear from you.

Maybe you're looking for a great graduate program, a supportive team, more clinical variety or simply somewhere you genuinely enjoy going to work each day.

You don't need to have your entire career figured out before having a conversation.
