• We're a privately owned, clinician-led allied health practice, and we value good people, open communication, strong clinical reasoning and genuinely collaborative care.
• This role is a little different from the traditional community physiotherapy position. You won't simply be moving from appointment to appointment. Instead, you'll have the opportunity to use your experience across triage, telehealth, clinical decision-making and Allied Health Assistant support, helping make sure clients receive safe, individualised and effective care within their own communities.
• If you're an experienced Physiotherapist looking for greater flexibility while still doing clinically meaningful work, we'd love to hear from you.
