Senior Occupational Therapist – Community
West & North-West Melbourne (with potential Geelong split)

NDIS | Support at Home | CHSP | Home Mods & AT Focus

Why you’ll enjoy working here

If you’re a Senior Occupational Therapist who enjoys autonomy, complex clinical work and shaping service delivery — this is a role where your experience will genuinely be valued.
You’ll join a large, well-established allied health provider with strong demand across Melbourne’s West and North-West. The focus is predominantly adult caseloads (16+) across Support at Home, CHSP and NDIS programs, with a strong emphasis on home modifications, assistive technology and equipment prescription.
There is also the opportunity to split your week between the West (priority need) and Geelong, if this suits your location and preferences.

What you’ll get
 
  • Community-based role across West & North-West Melbourne (with optional Geelong component)
  • Structured weekly billable target of 27 hours
  • Typically 2–3 home visits per day
  • Dedicated time for report writing between appointments
  • Access to Everbility AI documentation support to streamline reporting
  • Mentoring and supervision opportunities for early-career clinicians
  • Strong clinical leadership and operational support
  • National MDT access across OT, Physio, Speech, Dietetics, Podiatry and Nursing
  • Professional development support + study leave
  • Parental leave, EAP and referral incentives

This is a structured, adult-focused role designed for experienced clinicians who enjoy independence but still want team connection.

The impact you’ll make

In this role, you’ll:
  • Manage an adult community caseload across Support at Home, CHSP and NDIS (16+)
  • Complete comprehensive functional and environmental assessments
  • Lead complex home modification assessments and recommendations
  • Deliver detailed assistive technology and equipment prescriptions
  • Conduct 2–3 home visits per day with structured documentation time
  • Prepare high-quality, evidence-based reports
  • Mentor and supervise early-career clinicians
  • Contribute to quality improvement and best-practice service delivery

This is hands-on community OT with genuine complexity and impact.

Who this role is ideal for

This role would suit you if you:
  • Have strong experience in community-based adult OT
  • Are confident in home modifications and assistive technology
  • Enjoy structured billable targets with operational support
  • Like autonomy in your day while maintaining MDT connection
  • Want to mentor junior clinicians
  • Are comfortable with a community-based schedule
  • May be open to splitting time between West Melbourne and Geelong

What you’ll bring
 
  • Occupational Therapy qualification
  • Current AHPRA registration
  • Experience in community OT (NDIS / aged care / Support at Home)
  • Strong report writing skills (home mods & AT experience highly regarded)
  • Driver’s licence and access to a vehicle
  • Excellent time management and organisational skills

This is a national allied health provider delivering Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy, Speech Pathology, Dietetics, Podiatry and Nursing services across NDIS, Support at Home and Residential Aged Care.

With more than 180 clinicians nationally, they combine scale with strong clinical leadership and operational support.
