Closes: 30 August 2026

Classification: Health Professional Level 2
Salary: $91,026 - $108,691 plus superannuation
Position No: LP7256-02REG
Directorate: Canberra Health Services
Advertised (Gazettal date): 14 August 2026
Contact Officer: Lucy Coventry on [email protected]

What can we offer you:

Competitive pay rates and excellent working conditions within a tertiary hospital.
Salary Packaging with many options that provide full fringe benefits tax concessions.
Flexible working conditions
12.5% Superannuation.
Access to Employee Assistance Program.

About the Role:

An exciting opportunity exists for a dedicated and motivated Occupational Therapist to join the Occupational Therapy Department at North Canberra Hospital (NCH). Working as part of a dynamic multidisciplinary team, you will provide high-quality, patient-centred care across a range of clinical settings, including acute medical and surgical wards, the Medical Assessment and Planning Unit (MAPU), Neurology, Hospital in the Home (HITH), and Claire Holland House.

Reporting to the Director of Occupational Therapy, you will undertake comprehensive occupational therapy assessments and interventions that support patients to achieve optimal functional outcomes and maximise independence. You will work collaboratively with patients, carers, medical officers, nursing staff, and allied health professionals to deliver evidence-based care that is responsive to individual needs.

The successful applicant will demonstrate strong clinical reasoning and a commitment to evidence-based practice. You will contribute to the ongoing development and improvement of occupational therapy services through participation in quality improvement activities, professional development, and service evaluation initiatives. The role also involves maintaining accurate clinical records and statistical data, while supporting the application of risk management, clinical governance, and workplace safety principles.

We are seeking a highly organised and proactive professional who applies reflective practice and critical thinking to inform sound clinical decision-making. You will be adaptable and responsive in a fast-paced healthcare environment, with the ability to manage competing priorities and adjust to changing service demands. Excellent communication and interpersonal skills are essential, as is the ability to build effective working relationships and confidently engage with a diverse range of stakeholders.

This position offers an excellent opportunity to develop broad clinical experience across a variety of healthcare settings while contributing to the delivery of safe, innovative, and person-centred occupational therapy services with Canberra Health Services.

Join a team committed to excellence in patient care, continuous learning, and improving health outcomes for our community.

Note: A merit pool may be established from this recruitment process and will remain valid for 12 months. This pool may be used to fill similar roles/ future vacant positions at the same level across CHS.

Please note prior to commencement successful candidates will be required to:

Undergo a pre-employment National Police Check.
Comply with Canberra Health Services Occupational Assessment, Screening and Vaccination policy.
Comply with CHS credentialing and scope of clinical practice requirements for allied health professionals.

Note: This is a full-time temporary position available for 11.5 months with possibility of extension and/or permanency.

Note: Under the ACTPS employment framework you may be placed in another role where required for the efficient administration of the service.

Where an offer of employment is for a fixed-term period, any related temporary contracts within the Territory will be issued in compliance with the requirements and applicable exceptions outlined in the Fair Work Act.

Canberra Health Services (CHS) is focussed on the delivery of high quality, effective, person centred care. It provides acute, sub-acute, primary and community‐based health services, to the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) and surrounding region. More information can be found on the CHS website.

Our Vision: creating exceptional health care together

Our Values: Reliable, Progressive, Respectful and Kind
