Our “Why”
Recovery Station exists to empower individuals to live a quality life. We believe in creating the ideal environment for you because when you are happy, healthy, well-skilled and fulfilled, you're in the best position to have a positive impact on the wellbeing of everyone around you.
Key Traits of Recovery Station:
- We love what we do because everyone's role contributes to helping our clients live a more independent, empowered life
- Collaborating with passionate, likeminded colleagues creates connection and facilitates personal and professional growth
- Keeping personalised care at the heart of what we do challenges us to seek new and innovative ways to deliver life-changing service
Joining Recovery Station means aligning with a company that believes in empowering you and your future.
The Role
As a community- based team, we predominantly see our clients either in their homes, group homes, aged care facilities or in a public setting that's relevant for them eg out and about testing a new wheelchair. We want to see our clients where they are most comfortable whilst also giving you a diverse role full of variety and learning opportunities.
Some of our team schedule a full day of seeing clients one day, then balance this by working from home or having an office day to write reports, prepare resources, have supervision / training. Or you can mix things up depending how you like to work!
A community role is great as it allows you to have genuine flexibility and control over how you structure your days and therefore you don't miss your afternoon sport or being able to drop the kids to school in the mornings or pick them up in the afternoons!
Depending where you are living, we tailor your caseload to service clients close to home. Your personalised admin support team will work with you to ensure you aren't zigzagging around Melbourne and you'll have clients to see close to you.
This role would best suit an Independant Contractor looking for circa 2 days per week and we can work with you to build up your caseload to full-time if so desired.
Over time and in consultation with you, you will be taught how to confidently:
- Service a predominantly adult, NDIS or DVA caseload
- Provide high level clinical services including client assessment and treatment, therapy, equipment prescription, home assessment and modifications
- Run various educational sessions and therapy programs
- Produce high standard, comprehensive Occupational Therapy reports
If you have a foundation in residential aged care, paediatrics or hospital work and are curious about making the move to an adult, community caseload - reach out and let us know as we have a supportive team that is happy to help you make the transition.
Qualifications
- Approved qualification in Occupational Therapy and AHPRA registration
- Current driver's license with use of own vehicle

- You deserve remuneration that matches your experience plus the option to stretch for RDO’s and financial bonuses if you choose
- We trust you to work from home, or in the office, via telehealth and we give you a laptop and pay a phone/ data allowance to support this

From a professional development perspective:
- Your thorough Orientation will be supported by ongoing one on ones with your Supervisor to discuss goals personal to you via a CPD plan. Do you want to learn about Mods, AT, Mental Health or Driving Assessments? This is when you can chat about what you'd personally like to achieve
- These will be complimented with team meetings with your fellow OT's (25+ clincians) so you can learn during in-service sessions, share ideas, resources, ask for advice and stay abreast of any industry updates
- We love facilitating development pathways for clinicians seeking career progression and added responsibility via supervision, increased complexity of your caseload or even involvement in management procedures depending on what avenue you'd like to explore
- Two paid CPD days per annum
- Formal and informal liaison opportunities with other members of our MDT to broaden your clinical knowledge and provide holistic care to our clients
- All-company training day where we bring the entire business together and invite external presenters for each discipline
