Across Traralgon, Warragul, Morwell, Sale, Bairnsdale and the Bass Coast, hospitals, community health services, private practices and National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) providers are seeking qualified professionals to help people of all ages live more independent, fulfilling lives. Whether you’re an experienced occupational therapist or a new graduate ready to begin your career, there are full-time, part-time and community-based roles close to home.
Make independence possible
Working in occupational therapy means supporting people to overcome physical, cognitive or emotional challenges so they can participate fully in daily life. Each day you might help a child develop fine motor skills, assist an adult recovering from injury, or design home modifications for an older person. Your expertise transforms lives and strengthens our communities — something to be genuinely proud of.
Skills and qualifications employers value
Employers look for a degree in occupational therapy, current AHPRA registration, and excellent communication and problem-solving skills. Experience with assistive technology, paediatrics or mental health is highly regarded, and a current driver’s licence is often required for community-based roles. Most importantly, a compassionate and collaborative approach will set you apart.
