Occupational Therapist | Illawarra and South West Sydney

About Movementum

Movementum is a small but mighty occupational therapy practice supporting people across the Illawarra and South West Sydney. We believe the people receiving care and the people providing it both matter, equally. Our work spans clinical OT, manual handling training and care provider consultation, all aimed at helping the whole care routine thrive. Every OT on our team has over 20 years' experience, and we still love to learn.

The role

This is a mix of the face-to-face clinical work you love and the chance to work alongside support workers, families and care teams. One day you might be in a home working through a transfer that support workers are finding hard. Another day you might be with a family adjusting to new equipment or building a training resource or manual handling plan. The clinical work, the training and the consultation feed each other, and you'll have room to grow in the direction that suits you, whether that's clinical practice, facilitating training, creating resources, or supporting family carers.

What we're looking for

  • An OT with 5+ years' experience, ideally in disability or community-based care
  • Curiosity in understanding the perspective of different parties in care routines and exploring creative solutions that work for everyone
  • Someone self-driven, who is comfortable structuring their own day and also enjoys being part of a warm, open team
  • A forever learner, who builds rapport and trust and is comfortable with the tough conversations that can come with changes to care
  • Manual handling experience is welcome but not essential. We'll train you properly.

What you'll get

  • 3+ days a week, with flexibility around hours and school holidays
  • Above-award pay with bonus opportunities
  • A blend of home visits, working from your own home and our co-working space in the northern Illawarra
  • Support from a team of experienced OTs and a real opportunity to grow your skills and shape our services

Interested, or still working out if it's for you?
