2023 Graduate Physiotherapist (Rolling Intake)

Are you a career starter who wants to make a greater difference in your community?

We’re looking for new graduates across Australia to join us in shaping communities where everyone feels included. Where everyone has the same opportunities and choices and can live to their full potential. 

We’re on a mission to break down barriers to reveal people’s true abilities.  

Join the Everyday Independence team and you’ll work with and learn from some of the most talented and passionate people in the allied health and disability sectors. No two days are the same, but what will get you out of bed each day, will be the impact you make in people’s lives.

As a new graduate, we’ll support you to transition from university to your new role with confidence. Supervision, mentoring, self-directed learning, on the job training and an awesome team who shares their ideas and experiences with you, will help nurture your passion for empowering people to live their best lives.

You’ll get the ideal foundation in disability-focused community therapy through an intensive 12-month Graduate Program. In your local hub, you’ll be supported by an admin team and a Team Leader and share a laugh with team members with who you’ll build real friendships.

Let’s break down barriers. Together.

When you join Everyday Independence as a graduate, you get more than a job – you join us for a meaningful career and an ongoing commitment to your learning and development.

• Prepare evidence-based therapy plans and reports that highlight your participant's achievements and the support they need to continue towards their set goals.
• Evaluate progress and positive outcomes using person-centred tools, functional observations and collaboration with participants, their families and/or key stakeholders.
