Occupational Therapist – Paediatric (Community Role)
Brisbane Northside, QLD
If you enjoy working with children in their own environment—not just within four clinic walls—this role offers exactly that.
We’re partnering with a well-established allied health provider delivering community-based paediatric services across Brisbane’s Northside. The focus here is simple: meaningful therapy, realistic expectations, and giving clinicians the flexibility to do their best work.
The Role
A fully community-based paediatric position supporting children and families across home, school, and early learning environments. You’ll have the autonomy to manage your own schedule, with the support of a collaborative team behind you.
What your day could look like:
• Visiting families in their homes or schools
• Delivering play-based and functional therapy sessions
• Supporting children with developmental delays, ASD, and sensory needs
• Working closely with parents, carers, and educators
• Completing assessments and reports without unrealistic time pressure
Why this role stands out:
• Genuine flexibility in how you structure your day
• Travel is well-supported and planned efficiently
• Strong team culture—regular check-ins without micromanagement
• Resources and admin support provided so you can focus on clients
• Competitive salary + travel allowance + incentives
Who this would suit:
• AHPRA registered Occupational Therapist
• Experience in paediatrics or strong interest in community-based work
• Confident working independently while staying connected to a team
• Warm, engaging, and family-focused approach
Why Brisbane North?
The north side offers a relaxed, family-friendly lifestyle with easy access to parks, schools, and coastal spots. You’ll spend less time in traffic and more time doing meaningful work, with a strong sense of community across the area.
If you’re looking for a paediatric role that gives you flexibility, autonomy, and the chance to make a real impact in children’s everyday environments, we would be happy to share more details.
