Physiotherapist – MSK & Sports | Part-Time → Full-Time Opportunity |

Athletic Soul Rehab | Fitzroy & Fitzroy North, Melbourne

Part-time | Wednesday & Friday afternoons + Saturday | Opportunity to grow to full 2.5/3 days or full-time

Are you passionate about physiotherapy, evidence-based practice and becoming an exceptional clinician?

Athletic Soul Rehab (ASR) is looking for a motivated and ambitious MSK Physiotherapist to join our growing team across our Fitzroy and Fitzroy North clinics.

We’re looking for someone who is genuinely excited by physiotherapy — someone who is hungry to learn, develop their clinical skills and build their own professional identity within a supportive and progressive private practice.

This role will initially involve a minimum of Wednesday afternoon, Friday afternoon and Saturday, with flexibility around exact hours and clinic location.

For the right person, there is significant opportunity for the role to grow. This could include extending Wednesday into a full clinical day (AM–PM) as your caseload develops, adding further sessions across either clinic and, should you desire it, ultimately developing into a full-time position across ASR’s two locations.

Athletic Soul Rehab is an established MSK physiotherapy clinic in Fitzroy, with our second location recently opened within Bundha Sports Centre in Fitzroy North.

We work with a diverse and active patient population, treating everything from everyday musculoskeletal injuries through to complex presentations, sporting injuries, post-operative rehabilitation and return to sport.

Our approach is active, evidence-informed and individualised. We believe excellent physiotherapy should go beyond simply reducing pain — our goal is to help people build the capacity and confidence to get back to the things they love.

Both clinics provide access to excellent gym and rehabilitation environments within a busy sporting centre and gym, creating exciting opportunities for sports rehabilitation and community involvement.

First and foremost, we’re looking for someone who loves being a physio and a team player.

You’ll be someone who:

• Is passionate about MSK physiotherapy and evidence-based practice

• Is curious, motivated and hungry to continue learning

• Enjoys active rehabilitation and progressive exercise prescription

• Wants to continually develop their clinical reasoning and hands-on skills

• Has excellent communication and interpersonal skills

• Takes ownership of their patients and enjoys seeing rehabilitation through from injury to full function

• Enjoys being part of a team while still having the independence to develop their own caseload

• Is proactive and interested in building relationships within our local and sporting communities

• Wants to grow professionally rather than simply move patients through a diary

Private practice experience would be highly regarded, but attitude, clinical curiosity and the right cultural fit are extremely important to us.

We strongly encourage our physios to develop their own clinical interests and professional identity.

We would be particularly interested in hearing from clinicians with an existing interest, experience or further training in areas such as:

• Running injuries and running rehabilitation (we offer gait analysis in clinic)

• Upper limb, wrist and hand rehabilitation (we already have advanced shoulder physio)

• TMJ / jaw physiotherapy

• Specific Sports Rehab

• Strength & conditioning

• Clinical Pilates

These aren’t requirements. If you have another area of physiotherapy you’re particularly passionate about, we’d love to hear about it.

For clinicians with appropriate Clinical Pilates qualifications, there could also be an opportunity to incorporate Clinical Pilates sessions into your working week as the role develops.

We are initially looking for availability for a minimum of:

Wednesday afternoon
Friday afternoon
Saturday

The role will work across our Fitzroy and Fitzroy North/Bundha locations, with the exact structure discussed with the successful candidate.

As your caseload grows, there is scope to extend Wednesday into a full AM–PM clinical day, add additional sessions and ultimately grow the position across both clinics (This could be within weeks).

If you’re looking for a long-term opportunity, there is genuine potential to develop this into a full-time role.

We want our clinicians to be able to focus their energy on becoming excellent physios — rather than spending their week buried in administration.

As part of ASR, you’ll have access to:

• Strong administrative support

• Modern systems and AI-supported clinical and administrative tools designed to reduce unnecessary workload

• Excellent gym and rehabilitation facilities at our Fitzroy North location

• An established and growing referral network

• Exposure to a large sporting community through Bundha Sports Centre

• A varied and interesting MSK caseload

• Clinical collaboration and support within an experienced physiotherapy team

• Support with professional development and continued learning

• Support to help build your individual identity as a physiotherapist

• Support developing and promoting your own clinical area of interest

• Opportunities for involvement with sporting organisations, community partnerships, workshops and education

• Flexibility as your role and caseload develop

• A genuine pathway from part-time to a larger role or full-time position across our two clinics

We want our clinicians to develop a reputation for the areas of physiotherapy they genuinely care about, and we’ll support the successful candidate in doing that.

• Current AHPRA registration

• Appropriate professional indemnity insurance (APA desired)

• Eligibility to work in Australia

• A strong interest in MSK physiotherapy and rehabilitation

• Experience in these settings

• Commitment to evidence-based practice and ongoing professional development

If you’re a physio who is passionate about what you do, hungry to learn and excited by the idea of developing your own caseload and clinical identity, we’d love to hear from you.

Please apply through SEEK with your CV and a short cover letter.

We’d particularly love to hear what area of physiotherapy you’re most passionate about, where you’d like your career to develop over the next few years, and what you’re looking for in your next clinic.
