THE OPPORTUNITY 

Where clinical excellence meets genuine career growth 

Optimum Health & Performance is a physiotherapy-led multidisciplinary clinic on the Central Coast  with a well-earned reputation for measurable patient outcomes and a culture that takes professional  development seriously. We are growing — and we are looking for a senior clinician who wants to do more than fill a caseload. 

This role is for a physiotherapist who leads from within: someone who holds themselves to high  standards, takes pride in patient outcomes, and is excited to help shape the clinical culture of a  high-performance practice. 

WHO YOU ARE 

You’re the clinician others look up to 

You’ve built your skills in private practice and you understand what it means to deliver a consistent,  structured patient experience — from the first assessment to discharge and beyond. You track your  outcomes. You think about retention. You communicate clearly, with patients and with colleagues  alike. 

You’re ready to step into a role with clinical leadership responsibilities — mentoring junior staff,  contributing to team development sessions, and setting the standard for what great care looks like. 

Key attributes: 

Patient-centred - Outcomes-focused - Accountable - Evidence-based - Collaborative - Growth-minded - Coachable - Proactive - Reliable - Confident communicator 

THE ROLE 

Clinical care + clinical leadership 

Manage a diverse private practice caseload delivering musculoskeletal and sports  physiotherapy, with a strong emphasis on structured rehabilitation progressions and  measurable functional outcomes.

Take ownership of your KPIs: patient retention, rebooking rates, outcome scores, and  discharge quality. We expect high standards and provide the tools and mentoring to reach  them. 

Lead and contribute to fortnightly small-group professional development sessions. Play an  active mentoring role with junior clinicians — helping them build clinical reasoning and  communication skills. 

Collaborate within a multidisciplinary team including exercise scientists, exercise  physiologists, Pilates instructors, and remedial massage therapists to deliver integrated care. Utilise state-of-the-art technology — VALD, AxIT, ActivForce, Game Ready, Normatec, blood  flow restriction, Blazepods — to enhance assessment quality and patient outcomes.

A practice built around people who deliver 

Industry-leading remuneration Base salary + super + PD allowance +  performance bonus

Clear career pathway Defined progression into clinical leadership  and management
