About the Role We’re looking for an Occupational Therapist to join our team, with a mix of local community-based work and planned fortnightly travel to support participants in the Goulburn region.

The role would suit an OT who enjoys some variety in their week and is open to fortnightly DIDO travel to Goulburn for approximately 2-3 days at a time.

While in Goulburn, you’ll have the flexibility to work across community settings, our local clinic space, or a combination of both, depending on your caseload and participant needs.

For your fortnightly Goulburn visits, accommodation will be arranged and covered by Avina, with the option to use an Avina fleet vehicle or your own vehicle for travel, giving you flexibility around what works best for you.

Outside of the Goulburn component, you’ll be based with our North Sydney team, delivering strengths-based, evidence-informed therapy to NDIS participants across homes and community environments.
