Job description

*** This role is for existing Proficient, Advanced or Specialist Level Registered Practitioners in Brisbane - Full-time preferred but open to Part-time ***

Connect2Care is expanding into a new service delivery area, creating an exciting opportunity to shape and grow our Behaviour Support (PBS) team. This is a chance to be part of a growing, innovative space where your expertise will directly influence service design, team culture, and client outcomes.

Position Summary

We’re looking for experienced Occupational Therapists, Speech Pathologists, and Psychologists to join the foundation of our new PBS team at a senior or advanced level. This is a rare opportunity to shape a Behaviour Support service from the ground up, helping build processes, team culture, and service delivery as we grow. As you come on board, you’ll remain clinically active in your discipline (OT, SP, or Psych), contributing hands‑on to client care while we develop our PBS function. Over time, you’ll transition into a full‑time Behaviour Support Specialist role as the team and service expand. This is a real chance to make your mark, step into leadership, and accelerate your career, while playing a key role in the growth and future of Connect2Care.

Key Responsibilities for your initial role as an Occupational Therapist

  • Assess and treat clients with diverse needs (paediatrics + adults)
  • Support NDIS goals and functional outcomes
  • Provide AT assessments and recommendations
  • Write clear, timely reports
  • Manage a varied caseload and meet clinical targets
  • Collaborate with families, referrers and other stakeholders
  • Engage in regular supervision and professional development

Key Responsibilities for your role as a PBS (once transitioned)

  • Conduct assessments (functional behaviour assessments) and develop behaviour support plans (interim and comprehensive) that are person‑centred and evidence‑based and align with NDIS standards.
  • Implement strategies and support participants and teams, providing guidance, training, and collaboration with families and allied health staff.
  • Monitor progress and ensure compliance, reviewing plans, reporting outcomes, and adhering to NDIS and organisational requirements.
  • Ensure plans enhance quality of life, eliminate and reduce restrictive practices and promote meaningful skill development.
  • Ensure all work within this space aligns with both NDIS and state and territory legislative requirements.
  • Supervise junior BSP practitioners, including being responsible for sign‑off or endorsement of plans when required.
  • Contribute to the design, growth and quality systems of the new Behaviour Support Team.
  • Work within a multidisciplinary team.

Qualifications

  • Tertiary qualification in Psychology, Occupational Therapy, Speech Pathology, or relevant discipline.
  • Approved as an NDIS Behaviour Support Practitioner by the NDIS Commission.
  • Meets Proficient, Advanced, or Specialist BSP capability requirements.
  • Professional registration/membership where applicable.

Requirements

  • Working with Children Check & Police Check.
  • NDIS worker screening check.
  • Driver’s licence if travel is required.
  • Professional indemnity/public liability insurance.

Benefits

  • Flexible hours + hybrid work options.
  • PD allowance + paid study leave.
  • Relocation support.
  • Clear career pathways.
  • Admin support you can count on.
  • KPI and loyalty bonuses.
  • Laptop, phone + toll pass.
  • Annual leave loading.
  • Wellbeing support, EAP + private healthcare discounts.
  • Social events.
