Company Description

Job Description
Why Join Us?
- We work closely with children and families in the community, delivering practical, relationship‑based therapy that fits real family life.
- A calm, supported beginning: Your first weeks with us are about learning, not pressure. A three‑week induction with no client load, giving you space to learn our systems, observe sessions, ask questions, and settle in with confidence before building your caseload.
- A gradual ramp-up so you’re never expected to feel “ready” overnight: We know your first year matters. That’s why we reduce your KPIs to 23 billable hours per week during your first year, so you can focus on learning, shadowing, and settling in while our team supports you every step of the way.
- We trust our clinicians and value balance: Flexibility to structure your week, including work‑from‑home options for admin. Autonomy over your schedule, appointments, and travel planning.
- Strong clinical development and mentoring: Regular high‑quality supervision and mentoring, monthly onsite paediatric‑focused professional development, $2,000 annual PD budget, and one paid study day to support your ongoing learning journey.
- Team Culture: We don’t just say we have a great culture - we live it! Enjoy a fun, rewarding environment with regular social events that foster connection and well‑being.
- Hearing your Voice: We encourage a culture where feedback is welcomed, and every team member can contribute to shaping how we work together.
What does Support mean at Allied Kids Therapy?
- Ongoing guidance: As a new grad, you’ll have regular check‑ins, shadowing sessions, and plenty of guidance to help you settle in as you start your role.
- Fun, connected team: Join a friendly, social team with paid quarterly team-building events to help you feel connected from the start.
- Travel made easy: Getting to your clients is on us, with KM reimbursement included.
- Extra rewards: You’ll also have access to our rewards program, where you can earn extra leave, cash, and other rewards for exceeding your targets.
Qualifications
What We're Looking For:
- Full-time Occupational Therapist with relevant degree (graduating in 2026 or January 2027)
- Clinicians who are passionate about working with a predominantly paediatric community caseload
- A full driving license and access to a car is required
