Job description

Physiotherapist with Pilates Diploma (Pilates Rehab Focus) | Northern Beaches, Sydney

If your favourite part of physio is rehabbing people through movement, and Pilates is how you like to do it, this role is built around that.

About the practice

This is a physio-led studio on Sydney’s Northern Beaches that began as a place to heal through movement and has grown into a studio covering the full range, from rehab through to performance. Physiotherapists and qualified Pilates instructors work together, so clients move between hands‑on treatment and Pilates in the same space.

• Physiotherapy: hands‑on, evidence‑based treatment and rehabilitation
• Rehab Pilates for people recovering from injury or managing pain
• Semi‑private studio sessions, with small groups of 2 to 4
• Reformer and mat classes across levels

About the role

You’ll be a physio whose main tool is movement. Pilates is central to how you assess, prescribe and progress clients, rather than something added on at the end.

• Rehabilitate clients through movement and Pilates, from early recovery through to strength and performance
• Assess clients and build individual programs that use Pilates as the core of their rehab
• Run one‑on‑one and semi‑private sessions, and contribute to rehab‑focused classes
• Use hands‑on treatment where it supports the program
• Work alongside the physios and instructors on the team, and refer between treatment and Pilates as needed
• Keep clear notes and track client progress

What we’re looking for

• Current AHPRA general registration as a Physiotherapist
• A Diploma in Pilates
• Ideally at least 3 years’ experience as a physiotherapist
• A genuine preference for rehab through movement and Pilates over a traditional treatment room caseload
• Strong communication skills and a clear, confident coaching style
• Comfortable working across one‑on‑one and small group settings

What’s on offer

• A package and hours that are based on your experience
• A purpose‑built studio with a full range of Pilates formats and equipment
• A team where physios and Pilates instructors genuinely collaborate
• A role where Pilates is the centre of your clinical work, with a varied caseload from rehab through to performance

Location

Based in Frenchs Forest, on the Northern Beaches. It’s close to the hospital precinct, surrounded by bushland and a short drive from the beaches at Manly and Dee Why, with plenty of cafes nearby for lunch breaks.
