Physiotherapist – Sports & Performance
Ferntree Gully, VIC | Personal Training & Sports Performance Studio | Flexible Hours
Work Where Rehabilitation Meets Performance
We are looking for a motivated and personable Physiotherapist to join our multidisciplinary team in Ferntree Gully.
This is not a traditional physiotherapy clinic role. You will work within a personal training and performance-focused studio, collaborating closely with trainers and other professionals to help clients recover from injury, return to sport and ultimately perform at their best.
Our client base includes recreational and competitive athletes, with a particular focus on football, cricket and other sporting-related injuries.
About the Role
You will provide physiotherapy services within an active training environment, working with clients across injury management, rehabilitation, return-to-sport and injury prevention.
We offer flexible working hours, with the ability to structure your availability around your other professional and personal commitments. This role may suit someone looking for part-time hours, a position alongside an existing role, or an opportunity to progressively build their physiotherapy client base within the studio.
The role will include:
- Assessing, diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal and sports-related injuries
- Developing individualised rehabilitation and return-to-sport programs
- Working with athletes recovering from football, cricket and other sporting injuries
- Managing acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions
- Providing injury prevention, mobility and strengthening programs
- Working collaboratively with personal trainers to integrate rehabilitation into clients' broader training programs
- Supporting clients through the transition from injury → rehabilitation → strength → performance
- Educating clients on injury management, movement, recovery and long-term prevention
- Maintaining appropriate clinical notes and treatment plans
- Building strong, ongoing relationships with clients, athletes and the wider team
Who We're Looking For
We are looking for a Physiotherapist who enjoys working with active people and wants to be part of a collaborative, performance-oriented environment.
Ideally, you will have:
- A recognised qualification in Physiotherapy (essential)
- Current AHPRA registration
- A strong interest in sports and musculoskeletal physiotherapy
- An interest in football, cricket and other field or team sports
- An understanding of strength, conditioning and exercise-based rehabilitation
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
- Confidence working collaboratively with personal trainers and other professionals
- A practical, client-focused approach to rehabilitation
- A genuine interest in helping clients return not only to everyday function, but to sport and peak performance
Experience in sports physiotherapy is highly regarded, although we are also interested in hearing from early-career Physiotherapists with a genuine passion for sport, rehabilitation and performance.
Why Join Us?
This is an opportunity to practise physiotherapy in an environment where rehabilitation and training work together.
Rather than treating a client and sending them away to complete their rehabilitation elsewhere, you will have the opportunity to work alongside the professionals responsible for their ongoing strength and conditioning.
You'll be part of a team that believes successful rehabilitation doesn't simply mean becoming pain-free — it means helping clients regain the strength, confidence and physical capacity to return to the activities and sports they love.
We offer:
- Flexible working hours to suit your availability
- A modern personal training and performance environment in Ferntree Gully
- A strong focus on sports injuries and active rehabilitation
- The opportunity to work closely with personal trainers and athletes
- A collaborative and supportive team environment
- Scope to build your own client base and professional profile
- Opportunities to develop relationships with local sporting clubs and athletes
- The ability to help shape and grow the physiotherapy offering within the studio
