Job Description

This isn't a sink-or-swim graduate role. At Better Rehab, our Graduate Program is built by clinicians, for clinicians! With structure, mentorship, flexibility and backing from a multidisciplinary team, we want to set you up for long-term success beyond your grad year.

Why Better Rehab?

Flexibility with structure. Autonomy with real support.

We're a national, clinician-founded and clinician-led organisation. Our leaders understand clinical life because they've lived it. This means realistic KPIs, genuine flexibility, and an environment focused on quality care, not numbers.

You'll have autonomy over your diary, flexibility across community, clinic and work-from-home options, and strong supervision to support your growth every step of the way.

The Role

Working across Darwin, you'll support NDIS participants aged 6–65 years across a varied community caseload, including:

* Neurological conditions
* Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
* Psychosocial disability

This is a community-based role, delivering functional, participant-led therapy across homes, day centres, parks and clinic spaces. You'll:

* Complete meaningful assessments and design practical therapy plans
* Build long-term relationships and see real progress
* Work closely with a supportive multidisciplinary team

Our Graduate Program

We believe graduates thrive with visible, structured and consistent support.

* A graduate-specific induction week (NDIS, community practice & life at Better Rehab)
* 1:1 discipline‐specific supervision
* 6 months of structured induction, training and upskilling
* 4 paid study leave days per year
* Laptop, phone and fully resourced therapy kits

Flexibility & Rewards

* Better Flex Policy – flexible hours and the ability to flex off once client work is complete
* Clear, achievable KPIs
* Better Rewards Program – bonus pay, extra leave, PD, tech or experiences
* Paid Parental Leave – 8 weeks (primary), 2 weeks (secondary)
* Travel reimbursement at 117c/km
* National opportunities across 30+ Better Rehab locations

Qualifications

* Occupational Therapy qualification (graduating in 2026 or January 2027)
* Passion for supporting people with disability
* Driver's licence and own vehicle
* NDIS Worker Screening, Working With Children Check and Police Check (or willingness to obtain)

Commitment to Diversity

At Better Rehab, we embrace diversity, inclusivity and welcome applicants from all backgrounds, identities, and abilities including neurodiverse individuals.

If you think you'd be great in this role but don't meet every single requirement, we still encourage you to apply, we'd love to hear from you.

Your CV doesn't need to be perfect, your values matter more.
