Occupational Therapist – NSW (New Graduates Welcome)

Occupational Therapist

Gregory Hills & South-West Sydney, NSW | Full-time | $45–$65 per hour | New graduates welcome

We’re building a team of OTs who are curious about people, thoughtful in their practice and good to work alongside. If you enjoy getting to know what matters to someone and finding practical ways to make everyday life work better, we’d love to hear from you.

At Power of Grace Care Services (POGCS), we’re a growing team working with NDIS participants in their homes and communities. There’s room to share ideas, explore your clinical interests and help shape the way we work together.

About you

You’re someone who follows through, communicates openly and brings care to the details. You enjoy thinking creatively, exploring the evidence behind your decisions and working independently within your competence. You’re comfortable asking questions and sharing what you learn with the team.

One or more years of OT experience is desirable, but we’re also happy to hear from new graduates who have completed their OT degree and want to build a career in the NDIS sector. Our graduate training program combines structured supervision, shadowing, a gradual caseload build-up and feedback on reports. Responsibilities will be matched to your experience, with time to discuss cases and develop your clinical confidence.

About the role

Based around Gregory Hills, this is community-based OT, so expect a mix of client visits, assessments, therapy and report writing. You’ll work with participants and their support teams to turn meaningful goals into practical plans, with flexibility in how you organise your work.

• Assessing participants’ functional, physical, cognitive and psychosocial needs.
• Developing and delivering individual therapy plans, reviewing progress and adapting your approach.
• Supporting daily living skills, independence and participation in the things that matter to each person.
• Working with families, support coordinators and other health professionals to keep care coordinated.
• Writing clear reports and keeping accurate, timely clinical records.
• Sharing ideas in case discussions and contributing to improvements across the team.
• Supporting junior clinicians and delegating to Allied Health Assistants where appropriate to your experience and role.

You’ll need:

1. A recognised degree in Occupational Therapy.
2. AHPRA registration.
3. An Australian driver’s licence and the ability to travel between community appointments.
4. NDIS Worker Screening
5. NSW Working With Children Check.
6. Good organisation, clear written communication and a commitment to person-centred, evidence-based practice.
