Job Description

Occupational Therapist | Adults Caseload | Melbourne

This role is for OTs who prefer working with adults — and want the space to do it properly.

Not rushed visits.
And not being pulled into areas you’re not interested in.

We’re working with a private practice in Melbourne that has built a strong adult-focused service across functional assessments, rehab, and NDIS work — with a clear focus on quality and clinician wellbeing.

What the work actually looks like

• Adult-only caseload (no paediatrics unless you request it)
• A mix of functional capacity assessments, home visits, and ongoing therapy
• Time to think, plan, and write reports without staying back late
• Flexibility between clinic-based and community work

The difference here
This is a team that understands adult OT work can be complex — and they’ve structured the role to reflect that.

• Realistic expectations around reports and billables
• Proper admin support (so you’re not chasing paperwork)
• Autonomy in how you manage your clients
• A steady, experienced team — not constant turnover

Who this suits

• OTs who enjoy functional, goal-oriented work with adults
• Clinicians who want a balanced mix of independence and support
• Someone looking for a long-term, stable environment

Essentials

• AHPRA registration
• Driver’s licence (for community component)

What’s on offer

• Competitive salary + travel reimbursement
• Flexible working arrangements
• Support for professional development (especially in assessments and report writing)
• A calm, well-run practice where expectations are clear

If you’ve been wanting a role where adult caseload work is respected — and structured in a way that’s actually sustainable — we’d be happy to talk you through it.
