Occupational Therapist – Paediatrics and young adults 

• $75,000 – $110,000 + super + bonuses
• Full-time or part-time options
• Free onsite parking

The Organisation
4 Healthcare Recruitment is proud to be partnering with a well-established, clinician-owned allied health provider in Newcastle.

You’ll be joining a large multidisciplinary team, including 18 Occupational Therapists, 11 Speech Pathologists and Behaviour Support Practitioners, offering a highly supportive and collaborative environment.

The clinic is a standout — featuring a large, fully equipped sensory gym and extensive therapy resources, allowing clinicians to deliver creative, high-quality therapy without limitations.

This is a collaborative, ideas-driven environment where therapists are encouraged to think outside the box and contribute to innovative programs.

The Role
This is a primarily clinic-based paediatric role, working with children and young people aged 0–35, with a strong focus on school-aged clients.

You will:

• Work with a consistent weekly caseload (no fortnightly scheduling)
• Typically manage 23–25 clients, seeing the same children each week
• Deliver therapy in a purpose-built clinic environment
• Option to complete admin/report writing from home 1 day per week
• Have the flexibility to run your own schedule
• Optional involvement in outreach or school-based work

New graduates are fully supported with a gradual caseload ramp-up (starting from 12–15 billable hours), reaching full capacity over ~6 months.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Clinic-Based Focus – Minimal travel, work from a central, high-quality space
• Next-Level Facilities – Large sensory gym, not small treatment rooms
• Strong Team Support – Multiple supervisors, line managers & senior clinicians
• Collaborative Culture – Work alongside peers, share ideas, learn daily
• Flexible Working – Run your own schedule + WFH admin day
• Consistent Caseload Model – Weekly sessions = better outcomes, less admin stress
• Innovative Environment – Encouraged to bring new ideas and approaches

Benefits to You

• Salary: $75,000 – $110,000 + super
• Performance bonuses for exceeding KPIs
• $2,000 retention bonus after 6 months
• $2,000 annual PD allowance
• Technology package (laptop, iPad, headphones, speakers)
• Strong admin support
• Free onsite parking
• Flexible hours (38 or 40 hour weeks)

Workload & Structure

• KPI: 25 billable hours per week
• Weekly scheduling model (not fortnightly)
• Operates Monday–Friday, 8:00am – 5:30pm
• Flexible start/finish times depending on preference

About You

• Tertiary qualification in Occupational Therapy
• AHPRA registration (or pending)
• Passion for paediatric therapy
• Open to new graduates and experienced clinicians
