Paediatric Occupational Therapist

LiveBig is a specialist allied health team providing therapy and assessment services for people with disability. We provide services at home and in the community and operate in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth & Queensland, and we are looking for a new OT to join our team in Cairns
  
WHY WE LOVE WORKING AT LIVEBIG!

• We invest in our people - highly experienced managers & the best onboarding in the industry
• We value work/life balance - 4 "You" days of extra leave, pet, volunteer & parental leave + true hybrid working
• We reward your hard work - industry-leading quarterly bonus on base + additional bonuses
• We love what we do – you need to care about this work to be amazing at it, and our team does exactly that

As part of the Arriba Group, we were proud to be voted #1 Best Place To Work 2022 in Healthcare by the Australian Financial Review - this commitment to a quality life for our staff and clients is why.
  
WHY QUALITY DRIVES US
Our founder Marcella Romero - an OT by profession and the sole owner & operator of the Arriba Group - opens every town hall meeting with:
"My #1 priority is not for us to be the biggest business in Australia - I want us to be the best" - that commitment to quality runs through every level of our business. 
"Focus on quality work, and the billables will automatically follow - not the other way around" - many disability brands focus just on numbers, our focus is quality supports for our clients.

WHY ARE WE HIRING & WHAT THIS ROLE IS
While the Arriba Group is 25 years old, LiveBig was founded in 2019 - in those 4 years we have figured out who we are, what we are doing and where we want to go - we want YOU to help us get there. Lead by the OT Team Leader with support from our Area Manager, you will be given a paeds caseload in the community and benefit from working with a top tier team of people who know what they are doing and want you to succeed in your development. All LiveBig managers have 5 - 25 years clinical experience - the best mentorship you can get for your career. If you want to make a difference in disability community work but have heard all those stories about NDIS providers burning people out - we are the way to go! 

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

• Tertiary qualification in occupational therapy and registration with AHPRA 
• A passion for working with people with a disability - we love what we do and only hire staff who have that same drive
• Experience working in an NDIS community setting is always a big plus but not a deal-breaker - we just need someone with experience working with disabled people
• Arriba is made up of innovators - we love for our staff to bring new ideas to the table
• Fun & energy! We are a vibrant & diverse team who really enjoys working together
