Independent Community Physiotherapist in Melbourne

We’re looking for a warm, purpose-driven physiotherapist to join our Melbourne team, supporting seniors across Melbourne’s Eastern suburbs. At The Physio Co, we have one purpose: To help seniors stay mobile, safe and happy.

As a community physiotherapist, you’ll have the opportunity to support your clients over time, really getting to know them, understand what matters to them, and help them achieve goals that make a meaningful difference in their everyday life. That might mean helping someone regain confidence after a fall, to walk safely to their local café again, to play with their grandkids, to get back to an exercise class, or simply stay living independently at home for longer.

You’ll have the independence to manage your day in the community, backed by a warm, connected team. With ongoing mentoring, learning and development, we’ll support you to become the best community physio you can be.

Key responsibilities

You’ll spend your days visiting seniors in their homes, supporting them over time and helping them stay mobile, confident and independent. Your role will include:

• Conducting in-home physiotherapy assessments and treatments
• Developing personalised goal plans tailored to each client’s individual needs and priorities
• Delivering targeted, client-centred physiotherapy interventions
• Supporting clients to improve their balance, strength, mobility and overall physical function
• Building meaningful relationships with clients, families, carers and other health professionals
• Celebrating the milestones and goals your clients achieve along the way.

You’ll have autonomy to manage your day, while travelling between clients in their homes and retirement villages, with occasional aged care visits.

What we're looking for

We’re looking for someone who is warm, proactive, organised, and genuinely enjoys building relationships with older people. Someone who cares about what matters to their clients, takes ownership of their work, stays on top of their responsibilities and can confidently manage their day while working independently in the community. Most importantly, you want to help your clients continue doing the things they love.

You’ll also need:

• A Physiotherapy degree and current AHPRA registration
• Availability to work a minimum of three days
• A current driver’s licence and access to a car
• Current First Aid and CPR certification
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills
• Effective time management skills
• A warm empathetic and client-centred approach
• The ability to work independently in the community, while staying connected with your wider team.

New to community physio? That’s absolutely okay. Community experience isn’t essential – we provide structured onboarding, shadowing and ongoing support to help you settle into the role.

Why you'll love working at TPC

• No weekend work – your weekends are yours to enjoy.
• Autonomy over your calendar, giving you flexibility on how you structure your day.
• A genuinely supportive and values-driven culture where we are each other’s biggest supporters.
• A dedicated Team Leader and buddy so you’ll always have someone to turn to for support.
• Support from a dedicated Client Care Team, taking care of much of the admin behind the scenes so you can focus on what you do best – helping your clients.
• Structured onboarding and shadowing to help you feel confident before heading out on your own.
• New TPCer / grad training and coaching to support you as you build your skills and confidence.
• Ongoing professional development support to keep you learning and growing.
• Profit Share – because when TPC succeeds, we believe our team should share that success too.
• Device and kilometre reimbursements.
