If you're an adventurous Occupational Therapist seeking variety in your day, and passionate about acess and quality care to regional communities, look no further.

Key Highlights:

• Salary: $90,000 - $110,000 + Super 
• Leave & Wellbeing: 5 weeks annual leave, time in lieu & wellbeing leave

Our Cairns-based allied health client is seeking an experienced clinician who values flexibility, collaboration and work/life balance, and is enthusiastic about delivering quality care across regional and remote communities (by road and, at times, by air).

This isn’t a typical 9 to 5, some days are longer due to travel (by car or by plane), balanced with shorter days and later starts where appropriate, supported by strong systems to promote sustainability and prevent burnout.
