Occupational Therapist – Generalist, Mackay, QLD
If you enjoy being an OT because of the variety – not despite it – this role will suit you.
We're partnering with a growing allied health provider that keeps things simple: strong clinical work, supportive team culture, and flexibility that actually means something. No rigid moulds—just space to practise in a way that works for you.
What makes this role different?
This isn't a "tick-the-box" OT role. You'll have the freedom to shape your caseload across adults and/or paediatrics, depending on your strengths and interests. Whether you prefer clinic-based work, community visits, or a blend of both—the structure is flexible.
Your day-to-day may include:
- Functional assessments and goal setting that genuinely reflect client needs
- Equipment prescription and home modifications
- Working with NDIS and private clients
- Collaborating with a multidisciplinary team that values input (not just reports)
What you'll get in return:
- A role that adapts to your clinical interests over time
- Support without micromanagement
- A team that understands workload balance
- Competitive salary package + performance incentives
- Ongoing professional development and mentoring
Who this would suit:
- AHPRA registered Occupational Therapist
- Someone who enjoys a mixed caseload or wants to keep options open
- A clinician who values autonomy but still wants support when needed
- Confident communicator with a practical, client-focused mindset
