So many lives. So many ways. One you.

50,000 lives and counting.

That’s how many South Australians our people support each year.

As one of the state’s leading not-for-profits, we’re making a meaningful impact at scale. From foster care to aged care and everything in between, our services are as diverse as the people and communities we serve - and we’re growing our reach for the future.

It takes a special kind of person to work in this sector. Someone with real compassion and care. Could that person be you?

Join us as a Clinical Lead Occupational Therapist in Community Aged Care and support older people to live independently and well at home.

What you’ll do

As Clinical Lead Occupational Therapist, you’ll combine clinical leadership with hands-on practice, with approximately 50% of your role dedicated to leadership and 50% to managing your own clinical caseload within Community Aged Care.

You’ll provide clinical guidance, supervision and mentoring to Occupational Therapists while continuing to work directly with older people in their homes. With a strong focus on independence, reablement and meaningful outcomes, you’ll help shape contemporary OT practice and ensure services remain evidence-based, customer-centred and responsive to changing needs.

You’ll also play an important role in strengthening clinical governance, developing models of care and identifying opportunities to improve and grow Occupational Therapy services.

You’ll be trusted to make a valuable impact by:

• Providing clinical leadership, supervision and mentoring to the Occupational Therapy team, supporting quality practice and ongoing professional development.
• Managing a clinical caseload and delivering evidence-based Occupational Therapy assessments and interventions to older people living in the community.
• Providing clinical guidance for customers with complex needs and supporting consistent, high-quality decision-making across the team.
• Leading the development and implementation of clinical guidelines, models of care and contemporary best-practice approaches.
• Contributing to clinical governance, service improvement, team performance and opportunities to strengthen and grow Occupational Therapy services.

What you’ll bring

To thrive in this role, you will have:

• A tertiary qualification in Occupational Therapy and current AHPRA registration.
• Demonstrated Occupational Therapy experience, ideally supporting older people within community or aged care settings.
• Strong clinical capability, including assessment, intervention planning and supporting customers with complex needs.
• Demonstrated ability to provide clinical leadership, supervision, mentoring or guidance to other clinicians.
• Strong communication, organisation and stakeholder engagement skills, along with a current driver’s licence and access to a roadworthy vehicle.

We would also love you to have:

• Experience leading clinical governance, quality improvement or the development of clinical guidelines and models of care.
• Experience contributing to service development, innovation or growth initiatives within an Allied Health environment.
