Women’s Health Physiotherapist

The role

We don't have a dedicated women's health service yet, though we already see a lot of female athletes through ACL rehab and our club partnerships. You would build it: decide the scope, the treatment focus and who it's for.

What you’d build

• Post-partum return-to-running and return-to-sport protocols
• Referral relationships with our partner clubs
• A link between pelvic health assessment and athlete load management and injury prevention

What you’d have to work with

• $10,000 for equipment and marketing
• Two gyms totalling 260 m², with force plates and an anti-gravity treadmill
• An existing athlete caseload to build programmes around

Support

A multidisciplinary team that includes six physios, alongside chiropractic, massage, exercise physiology and strength and conditioning.

• Weekly one-to-one mentoring with a Titled Sports Physiotherapist
• Weekly group in-services, team meetings and case conferences
• Quarterly lectures from shoulder surgeons, sports doctors and other specialists
• A $1,500 CPD budget (pro rata)

What you need

Essential

• About 3 years of clinical experience
• Women's health training, completed or underway
• Full AHPRA registration
• A valid Australian driver's licence
• The right to work in Australia (we can't offer sponsorship)

Desirable

• SIRA accreditation
• An interest in AFL, cricket or netball
• Experience in female athlete rehab or performance
