Occupational Therapist

Be among the first 25 applicants to join Better Rehab as an Occupational Therapist.

Join a Crew

We celebrate wins together and have each other’s backs. “Working for Better Rehab is awesome! I love the variety of the caseload, I love the team and I love the work‑life balance.” – Maddie, OT.

Based in our Blacktown office, you’ll work within a multidisciplinary team of 11, including 5 dedicated Occupational Therapists. Our Blacktown team delivers predominantly paediatric care for developmental and acquired disabilities in clinic and in the community.

Day‑to‑day you will

  • Conduct meaningful assessments and design impactful therapy plans in diverse environments, from participants’ homes to day centres, parks, and even at the beach.
  • Build enduring relationships with clients and witness the lasting impact of your work.
  • Innovate and collaborate : whether you’re dealing with complex cases, exploring new treatment approaches, or facing professional challenges, you’ll have a multidisciplinary team in your corner.

What Makes Us Better?

We are clinician‑led at every level, all the way to the top. We trust our clinicians – we show it.

Our Values

  • We Get Shit Done!
  • We are People People
  • Love What You Do
  • Frankly, we Give a Damn
  • We Value Ourselves
  • We Back You

    We’re committed to helping you grow as an Occupational Therapist or as a leader. Our mentoring pathway develops the full spectrum of skills you need to succeed, with opportunities such as :

  • Support and Supervision – supportive colleagues and a dedicated 1 : 1 Supervisor.
  • Professional Development – an extensive internal PD schedule plus a personal budget.
  • Study Leave – 4 full days paid study leave per calendar year.
  • Resources – a laptop, phone and all therapy and assessment resources ready to use.
  • Freedom to Work Your Way

  • Better Flex Policy – flexible hours and the option to flex off when you’ve completed client work.
  • Clear KPIs – realistic, achievable and sustainable monthly targets.
  • Better Rewards Program – earn bonus pay or extra leave, or redeem points for PD, gadgets and experiences.
  • Paid Parental Leave – 8 weeks for the primary carer and 2 weeks for the secondary carer.
  • Travel Reimbursement – work‑related travel paid monthly at 92c per KM.
  • National opportunities across 30 Australian sites.
  • About You

    We’re after Occupational Therapists who get restless when there’s room for improvement and aren’t afraid to speak up. You have a fire in your belly about participant care and treat participant goals like personal missions, not just checkboxes on a form.

    When participant interests are at stake, you challenge ideas – even ours – with courage.

    If this sounds like you, we might just be right for each other.

    You Will Also Hold

  • Full AHPRA registration as an Occupational Therapist – limited cases may be considered on a case‑by‑case basis.
  • A valid driver’s license and personal vehicle.
  • An NDIS check, Working with Children Check, and Police Check (or willingness to obtain).
  • Onshore applicants seeking sponsorship will be considered.
