Are you an experienced Occupational Therapist who loves leading people just as much as helping clients? We're looking for a leader, a mentor, a problem-solver & someone who is genuinely excited about helping shape the future of Occupational Therapy across Queensland.
At Allied Care & Co, we're not simply looking for someone to manage a team. We're looking for someone who will inspire it, challenge it, support it & help it grow. If you're ready to step beyond a traditional clinical role & make a meaningful impact on people, culture & organisational growth, we'd love to hear from you.
About Allied Care & Co
Allied Care & Co is a growing, Gold Coast-based Occupational Therapy provider delivering high-quality, person-centred services across South East Queensland & regional communities. Our services include Forensic Occupational Therapy, Functional Capacity Assessments, Assistive Technology, Home Modifications, ongoing Occupational Therapy, & complex clinical assessments and much more.
The Opportunity – More Than Just a Management Role
We are seeking an experienced & highly motivated Occupational Therapy Team Manager to join our leadership team at our Bundall office on the Gold Coast. Working closely with our Owner & Clinical Director, you will play an integral role in leading, supervising & developing our Occupational Therapy team while helping shape the future direction of Allied Care & Co. This is a hands-on leadership position combining people management, clinical governance, professional supervision, operational oversight, clinician development & regional service expansion. This is not a traditional 9-to-5 desk role; flexibility is required within agreed employment conditions.
What Will You Be Doing?
- Lead, Inspire & Develop Our Occupational Therapy Team
- Drive Clinical Excellence & Quality
- Support Our Clinicians Where It Matters Most
- Help Grow Our Regional Outreach Program
- Contribute to Business Growth & Operational Leadership
Clinical Supervision, Mentoring & Professional Development
We don't expect you to know everything about Occupational Therapy. We do expect the confidence & leadership to help your team find answers. Great leaders guide & empower others, recognise when specialist expertise is needed & connect clinicians with the right advice or resources.
Maintaining Your Clinical Skills
Although this is predominantly a leadership & management position, we believe our clinical leaders should remain connected to contemporary Occupational Therapy practice. To support this, you will maintain a small, carefully balanced clinical caseload alongside your leadership responsibilities.
Where Will You Be Based?
This is an office-based leadership position at our Bundall office on the Gold Coast. Outside clinician visits & regional travel, you will work from our Bundall office. Please note: This is not a fully remote or work-from-home position. Regular field-based support & clinician shadowing form part of the position. Regional travel, including occasional overnight stays, is an essential component of the role.
Who Are We Looking For?
- A recognised qualification in Occupational Therapy.
- Current unrestricted AHPRA registration as an Occupational Therapist.
- A minimum of five years' clinical experience.
- Demonstrated leadership, team management, clinical supervision or mentoring experience.
- Strong clinical reasoning & experience managing complex clinical presentations.
- Sound understanding of NDIS service delivery, clinical governance & professional practice standards.
- Excellent communication, interpersonal & conflict-resolution skills.
- Strong organisational skills & the ability to manage competing priorities.
- A proactive, solutions-focused approach to leadership.
- Current driver's licence.
- Willingness & ability to undertake regular regional travel.
What Makes You the Right Person?
- Leads from the front.
- Has genuine initiative.
- Is passionate about developing people.
- Thinks beyond the immediate task.
- Communicates with confidence & compassion.
- Thrives in a growing organisation.
- Believes regional communities deserve better access to healthcare.
What We Offer
This position offers:
- Competitive leadership remuneration package reflective of your experience & responsibilities.
- Company vehicle to support your leadership, community & regional travel commitments.
- Company expense account for approved work-related & regional travel expenses.
- Direct collaboration with our Clinical Director.
- A genuine opportunity to influence the clinical & strategic direction of a growing organisation.
- Opportunities to travel throughout Queensland & contribute to meaningful regional healthcare initiatives.
- A supportive, collaborative workplace where ideas, initiative & professional excellence are valued.
A Note From Our Clinical Director
Our strength comes from our people. I want every clinician to feel supported, valued & empowered to excel. I'm looking for someone who shares that vision & comes with positive energy & a can-do attitude, who sees challenges as an opportunity to grow.
