Occupational Therapist

Are you based locally, commuting from Yass or Canberra, or craving a role closer to home that blends professional impact with personal flexibility? At Avina, we know occupational therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all and neither is a great workplace. Our Goulburn team embraces individuality, neuroaffirming practices and a collaborative culture where roles are shaped around you, not just handed to you.
  
Making Every Session Count

Every day as an OT in Goulburn brings variety and impact:

• Helping children build independence at home and school
• Supporting adults to regain skills and confidence in daily life
• Collaborating with families, carers, Speech Pathologists, and BSPs to provide wraparound care
• Balancing fieldwork with dedicated admin time to plan, reflect, and grow

Build a Role That Works for You

We get it – flexibility is key:

• 3 full days a week? Perfect.
• Shorter hours spread across the week? Absolutely.
• Something in between? Let’s design it together.
  You’ll service participants locally, with a work car available for community outreach work

Support, Growth, and Culture

We do things differently – with people and purpose at the centre:

• Shape your days, hours, and rhythm
• Work from home for non-client time
• Balanced expectations – 65% billable model with protected time for reflection and collaboration
• Monthly team connection days to learn, share, and recharge
• Earn 12 extra leave days per year
• Regular supervision, CPD funding, and approachable leadership
• Fitness Passport, EAP, and a team that genuinely has your back

The OT We’re Excited About

You’re adaptable, curious, and driven by real outcomes – not just paperwork. You’ll bring:

• A degree in Occupational Therapy + current AHPRA registration
• Experience or interest in paediatric therapy, with comfort across the lifespan
• Strong communication and advocacy skills
• A person-centered, inclusive approach
• WWCC, NDIS Worker Screening Check, driver’s license, and full Australian working rights

Not Your Typical OT Job

OT isn’t always easy – complex cases, paperwork, and travel can be a lot – but we back you so you can focus on what matters most: helping people thrive.
