SalaryAbout Ascend
Come and be part of our new Melbourne Hub. We're searching for a senior therapist (ideally 4 or more years of therapy experience) who is keen to help regularly supervise and coach regular small cohorts of allied health placement students and student support workers. We're collaborating with universities to provide quality student learning experiences!
Therapists will also have their own NDIS community caseload on the side, at a reasonable target of 4.0 billables per day. The caseload is approx 30% supervision/ 70% therapy.
We'll be growing our team over the next two years into a large well-rounded allied health team working collaboratively to both supervise university students as well as improve the lives of NDIS participants.
Get Paid to Train in Perth!
We're originally based in Western Australia, so our Eastern States therapists get paid to fly over to Perth, and train with their Western colleagues and meet our HQ team as well (we'll be flying over to you a lot as well). There'll be plenty of shadowing opportunities + coaching from our HQ staff giving you the tools, advice and ongoing support you need to help manage and train our up and coming Melbourne team!

Fair Billables
Our therapists aim for approx 3 community sessions a day, which easily results in acheiving the target 4 billables per day. This gives our therapists the chance to aim for the quality of services they want to provide, and not feel so rushed that they compromise therapeutic outcomes.
