Healthy Connections is part of Burnie Brae, a vibrant not-for-profit bringing a wide range of community services to life - from transport and homecare to allied health and engaging member activities. At our Chermside clinic, we deliver multidisciplinary allied health services both in-clinic and in clients’ homes, supporting people across North Brisbane to stay active, healthy, and independent.

- Work confidently across multiple funding streams including My Aged Care, Support at Home, NDIS, DVA, Medicare, and private clients.
- Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to deliver the best outcomes for our diverse client base (primarily older adults).
- Contribute to the development of new programs, initiatives and bring your ideas to the table.
- Support marketing and brand awareness through blogs, client resources, and social media participation.
To be eligible for this role, you’ll bring:
- A tertiary qualification in Exercise Physiology with current ESSA accreditation as an Exercise Physiologist.
- New graduates are encouraged to apply — salary will be aligned to your experience and classification.

- A collaborative mindset — you’re a team player who actively contributes to a positive team culture.
- Strong organisation and time management skills, with the ability to adapt and problem-solve on the go.
- Current First Aid and CPR certification.
- Current Driver’s Licence and a reliable vehicle (community visits required).
- Current NDIS Worker Screening Clearance, or willingness to obtain one.
