Date:  9 Aug 2025
Location:  Perth
Business Unit:  St Jude's Disability Services

 

St Jude’s Health Care Group is a trusted provider of Aged Care, Allied Health and Disability Services, established in 1982. With a strong reputation built over four decades and as a purpose-driven organisation, we operate with a clear philosophy: we do not provide any service that isn’t good enough for our own families. Our work is grounded in respect, integrity, commitment, and genuine partnerships with the individuals and communities we support.
 

Role Summary

As an Occupational Therapist, you’ll play a key role in helping children (and/or adults if that’s your preference!) reach their full potential through NDIS-funded support. Your work will involve delivering personalised, one-on-one therapy in homes, schools, and our welcoming clinic spaces. You'll design practical tools and strategies to empower families and ensure real-world progress, while collaborating with a multidisciplinary team to provide holistic care. With autonomy over your own caseload, you’ll build strong relationships with families, educators, and other professionals to deliver consistent, goal-driven therapy that supports every individual’s development and wellbeing.

Responsibilities and Duties

  • Apply your understanding of childhood development to assess how various disabilities influence participation in daily routines, such as personal care, play and education
  • Plan and deliver customised intervention programs that encourage skill-building and support children in reaching meaningful milestones
  • Partner with families, schools, and care teams to implement practical, consistent approaches that align with each child’s individual goals
  • Keep up-to-date, professional records including therapy notes, reports, and documentation required for funding and service planning

 

This role is being hired on either a permanent part-time or full-time basis! 

Skills, Attributes and Experience

We’re looking for someone who brings warmth, enthusiasm, and a proactive mindset to the team! You value person-centred care and know how to build genuine, trusting connections with children, families and your team. You enjoy working collaboratively, think outside the box, and are driven to create real impact through innovative, goal-focused therapy.

 

To be considered for this position, you’ll require the following:

 

  • Registration with AHPRA as an Occupational Therapist
  • A current driver’s licence and access to a reliable vehicle
  • A valid WA Working with Children Check and NDIS Worker Screening Check (or willingness to obtain both)
