Job description

Physiotherapist Opportunity — Drysdale, Bellarine Peninsula

Looking for a change of pace without giving up clinical variety? A friendly, well-regarded private practice is on the hunt for a physiotherapist to join their team — and they're genuinely open to either a new graduate ready to build strong foundations or an experienced clinician looking for a supportive, unhurried environment to do their best work.

Why this practice stands out

Mentoring here isn't a buzzword — it's built into how the clinic runs. New graduates are paired with senior clinicians from day one, with weekly one-on-one supervision, structured caseload progression, and protected time for case discussions. Experienced physios are equally well supported through peer review, in-house professional development, and encouragement to pursue post-graduate interests. The team is small, warm, and genuinely collaborative, with a longstanding reputation in the local community.

The role

• Varied musculoskeletal caseload across all age groups
• Modern, well-equipped clinic with rehab gym and private treatment rooms
• Full admin support so you can focus on clinical care
• Full-time or part-time considered — flexible days to suit the right person
• Scope to develop special interest areas (women's health, sports, hydrotherapy, chronic pain) over time

What's On Offer

• Above-award salary, negotiable based on experience
• Structured new-grad mentoring program with weekly supervision
• Generous CPD allowance plus paid study leave
• Regular in-house training and external course support
• Genuine work-life balance — no unrealistic KPIs, no rushed appointments
• Long-term career pathway with a practice that invests in its people

About You

• AHPRA registration as a Physiotherapist (or eligibility pending imminent registration)
• Warm, patient-centred approach
• Willingness to learn and contribute to a positive team culture
• Full Australian working rights
