As a Grade 3 Physiotherapist in Geriatric Evaluation and Management (GEM), you are recognised as a clinical expert who provides advanced assessment, treatment and leadership within the sub‑acute aged‑care stream. You will manage a complex caseload of older adults, act as a consultant for colleagues, and support excellence in interdisciplinary care, service development, research, and teaching. A key focus of this role is to provide expert clinical care, lead professional development, contribute to quality improvement and research, and foster a positive, high‑performing team culture.

  • Support and guide the multidisciplinary team in shared decision‑making, complex discharge processes, and service improvement initiatives
  • Deliver and support research initiatives, journal clubs, and translation of emerging evidence into practice
  • Maintain high‑quality documentation, data accuracy, and adherence to information management and digital systems

Requirements:

  • Current AHPRA registration and relevant tertiary qualification in Physiotherapy
  • Seven + years’ relevant clinical experience, including extensive experience in acute and/or sub‑acute gerontology
  • Expertise in teaching, supervision and fostering professional competence in others
  • A strong record in research and/or quality improvement, with the ability to lead or contribute to projects
  • Excellent communication, high‑level interpersonal skills and proven ability to work within and lead multidisciplinary teams
  • Strong understanding of broader health‑system issues, policy context and the ability to integrate this into clinical and service decision‑making
What we offer:
  • Greater take-home pay through generous salary packaging, for living expenses, meals, and holiday accommodation
  • A suite of wellness initiatives designed to support you, including discounted fitness memberships and special offers on health insurance, and a comprehensive wellbeing program
  • Onsite childcare at Austin Hospital, easy access via public transport and car parking options
