- Occupational Therapist — Traralgon VIC | Generalist | Newly Created Role
- Permanent | Competitive Salary + PD
Shape your own role. Build something from scratch. Do it in one of Victoria's best lifestyle regions.
This isn't a role where you slot into someone else's system.
Traralgon's well-established multidisciplinary clinic has created a brand new OT position — and they want the right person to help design how it runs.
The caseload, the workflow, the day-to-day rhythm — there's genuine flexibility to build this in a way that works for you.
The clinic owner is hands-on, approachable and genuinely open to ideas. If you've ever wanted autonomy without feeling like you're on your own, this is it.
The role
- Adults and paediatrics
- Community and clinic-based appointments
- Functional and general OT assessments
- A broad range of presentations and conditions
Some community travel is part of the role (schools, aged care facilities, home visits), so a driver's licence is needed.
Down the track, if you're interested, there may also be an opportunity to mentor junior OTs as the team grows — though that's entirely optional.
- This role suits you if
- Enjoy variety and are confident managing a broad caseload independently
- Like making clinical decisions without having to run everything past someone
- Want to genuinely shape a service rather than just fill a seat
- Value being part of a team that actually supports each other
- What's On Offer
- Competitive salary, negotiable based on your experience
- Multiple professional development opportunities throughout the year
- Flexible workflow — you have real input into how your days are structured
- Long-term growth potential within an established organisation with clinics across Australia
- Supportive, flexible management who value your input
- What You'll Need
- General AHPRA registration as an Occupational Therapist
- Minimum 3 years of experience within the Australian or comparable healthcare system
- Confident managing a mixed caseload independently
- Strong communication and organisational skills
- Driver's licence
Why Traralgon?
Traralgon sits in the heart of Gippsland — one of Victoria's most liveable regions. Here's why people who move there tend to stay:
Lifestyle
— national parks, lakes, hiking trails and beaches all within reach on weekends. A relaxed pace without sacrificing convenience.
Affordability
— housing costs a fraction of Melbourne. Your salary goes considerably further.
Community
— great schools, a growing café and dining scene, sporting clubs and a genuine sense of neighbourhood that's hard to find in a city.
Connected
— Melbourne is accessible by train or car, so regional living doesn't mean being cut off.
If you've been thinking about making a move out of the city, this is the kind of role and location that makes it easy to say yes.
