Gold Coast
Recruit Collective
Occupational Therapist
Posted: 5 March
Offer description

Looking for work that feels meaningful at the end of the day - not just busy?

This local Bundall business believes occupational rehabilitation works best when people feel genuinely seen, supported and understood. Their consultants work at the intersection of health, work and wellbeing, helping individuals regain confidence, purpose and sustainable function following injury, illness or psychological distress.

Due to continued growth on the Gold Coast, they are expanding their multidisciplinary team and are seeking an Occupational Therapist, Rehabilitation Counsellor and Psychologist to join them at Consultant and Senior Consultant levels.

Why This Role Is Different

This is not a "tick-the-box" type of rehabilitation role.

You will be trusted to think critically, work collaboratively and tailor your approach to each individual. You'll have the autonomy to do your job properly, balanced with the support of an experienced leadership team who value quality outcomes over volume.

Your work will span physical, psychological and workplace-based rehabilitation, supporting people through complex, real-life challenges and helping them return to work safely, confidently and sustainably.

The Opportunity

You will manage a diverse and meaningful caseload across:

* WorkCover
* DVA
* Employer and early intervention services

Your day-to-day work will involve close collaboration with injured workers, employers, insurers, medical practitioners and internal team members, ensuring rehabilitation plans are practical, person-centred and aligned with best practice.

The Job

Occupational Therapist

As an Occupational Therapist, you will play a key role in helping individuals regain functional independence and confidence at work and at home. Your work will include:

* Functional, workplace and activities of daily living assessments
* Ergonomic and injury prevention education
* Problem-solving workplace barriers to return to work
* Development and facilitation of tailored return-to-work plans
* End-to-end occupational rehabilitation case management

* One-to-one psychosocial and mental health support
* Vocational and return-to-work planning
* Managing occupational rehabilitation cases across multiple schemes
* Coordinating employers, insurers and treating practitioners
* Supporting clients through complex emotional and workplace barriers
* Applying counselling, communication and conflict-resolution skills daily

Psychologist

As a Psychologist, your work will focus on mental health, adjustment and workplace wellbeing. You will support individuals and organisations through:

* One-to-one psychological and mental health support
* Early intervention and workplace mental health services
* Complex return-to-work and adjustment-related cases
* Delivery of workshops and onsite mental health programs
* Collaboration on team interventions and workplace consultations
* Supporting psychologically safe workplace practices

Consultant & Senior Consultant Pathways

We tailor roles based on experience and strengths:

* Consultant: Structured caseload, strong mentoring and development, ideal for building depth and confidence
* Senior Consultant: Greater complexity, mental health focus, leadership involvement, mentoring and contribution to workplace programs

Who We're Looking For

* A qualification in Occupational Therapy, Rehabilitation Counselling or Psychology
* 5+ years experience
* Registration (or eligibility) with the relevant professional body
* Strong written and verbal communication skills
* Excellent organisation and time management
* The ability to coordinate multiple stakeholders with confidence
* Curiosity, creativity and a willingness to think differently
* High integrity and professionalism
* A warm, empathetic and person-centred approach
* A collaborative mindset and genuine interest in people
* A current driver's licence and access to a vehicle

We encourage applications from experienced clinicians and graduates with strong values and motivation.

What You'll Get In Return

* Flexible full-time or part-time arrangements
* Supportive, experienced Gold Coast leadership
* Ongoing professional development and supervision
* A diverse, interesting caseload
* A culture built on respect, quality and integrity
* Work that genuinely makes a difference
