Paediatric Occupational Therapist

If you chose paediatrics because you genuinely enjoy working with children and want a role where you can slow down, build trust with families and see real progress over time-this could be exactly what you've been looking for.

This is a privately owned clinic in Perth with a strong reputation for delivering thoughtful, family-centred care. The team is approachable, supportive and clinically focused, without the pressure of unrealistic targets or rushed sessions. You'll be joining a practice that values how you work, not just how many clients you can see.

What your days will look like
You'll be working with a consistent paediatric caseload, supporting children across early intervention, developmental delays, sensory processing and functional skills. Sessions are structured to allow you to actually engage with your clients-not just move from one appointment to the next.

There's flexibility in how you run your day, with a mix of clinic-based sessions and, if you enjoy it, school or community visits. Your caseload can also be tailored to your interests over time.

Why this role feels different

• You'll have the time and support to do meaningful work, not just hit numbers
• Your clinical interests are genuinely considered when building your caseload
• You'll be part of a team that shares ideas and supports each other day-to-day
• There's flexibility in how your week is structured

What's on offer

• Competitive base salary with performance incentives
• Flexible working options (full-time or part-time)
• Dedicated admin support so you can focus on clinical work
• Professional development allowance + ongoing mentorship
• Clear pathway for growth within a stable private practice
• Supportive onboarding to help you settle in quickly

About you

• AHPRA registered Occupational Therapist (or eligible)
• Passion for paediatrics and working closely with families
• Warm, engaging and confident communicator
• Open to learning, growing and contributing to a team environment
