Are you our next high performer?

We offer flexible work options, growth opportunities, and outstanding outcomes for our clients.

It is the Williams OT’s mission to grow the best driver assessment and rehabilitation company for Australia. At Williams Occupational Therapy, Driver Assessments and Rehab, we offer our employees the opportunity to be part of something great; the opportunity to really help people, and I mean really help people. We not only assess clients’ driving, but we also offer our clients so much more.

If you are chosen to join our team you will be part of a movement that looks to be the most comprehensive services for clients with a disability who wish to drive. You will not be stuck in a clinic that only sees a small number of diagnostic groups. You will help people with all types of disabilities and illnesses and you will learn more than you ever have before about driver rehab. Not only that, you will have the flexibility to match work with your lifestyle. Do you have what it takes to be a Driver Trained OT at Williams OT?

You are a Driver Trained OT (Occupational Therapist), preferably with assessment experience (but this is not vital – we will provide all the training you will need and more). You have a willingness to learn and grow, and if not already, a desire to become a standout performer in the area of driver rehab. You are someone that has looked at www.facebook.com/WilliamsOccupationalTherapy and became very excited by the possibilities. You are someone that has looked at www.williamsot.com/blog and found the content interesting and it has motivated you to work for us. and you have looked all through www.williamsot.com and it has fuelled a desire to be a major player in the driver assessment and rehab world.

You are an outgoing practitioner and have a desire to excel in private practice. You’re someone that likes a challenge and wants to grow your knowledge base and skills, and is eager to take on new and exciting work.

You love change for the better and are happy to innovate and push boundaries with the right evidence. Perhaps you aren’t fulfilled with your current job role and are limited by a restricted caseload, and you know that there are better opportunities waiting for you. Or maybe you have completed your training as a Driver Trained OT and now you want to really work in this area.

Things are about to change – read on to hear how:

We are not looking for someone who is looking to get a job to roll them over until the next opportunity comes along. We are looking for serious growth candidates.

You will have great people skills with fantastic communication, and enjoy working as part of a dynamic team. You also love to have a laugh and enjoy banter but also achieve high outcome measures in our vibrant culture.

What’s more, you will love the opportunity to become a rehab specialist in driving and enhance your knowledge and skills in vehicle modifications, AND, you want the opportunity to be trained as a driving instructor to really enhance your skills in rehabilitation.

The Company:

Williams Occupational Therapy is not just an OT driver assessment service like one at a hospital. Williams OT has developed and is continually refining a brand to be everything it can to get clients with a medical condition or disability on the road and is known for the great care we take with clients and employees alike. Our Staff developed the following statement:

• “All the pieces of the puzzle to assist people to gain independence through driving”.

We believe in fighting for people with a disability or medical condition and their independence in the task of driving. We understand the freedom that comes from not relying on others for life’s tasks such as getting to and from work, picking up the kids, getting a loaf of bread and a carton of milk from the local shops, and going for a Sunday drive.

We are a well-established and award-winning innovative and progressive practice and are known for delivering excellent patient outcomes in a fun, friendly, and supportive environment. Established in 2011, we are continuing to expand due to a popular following amongst patients, referrers, strong networks, and an excellent community reputation.

We are committed to helping all of our team to reach their potential both professionally and personally, and provide all the support necessary for you to reach your goals in a caring, fun, and supportive environment.

Whether you are a young energetic newly trained Driver Trained OT looking for an inspiring practice to leapfrog years in your learning curve, or you are more experienced and want to expand your career opportunities and reach your true potential, we would love to meet you.

The Location:

Williams OT is based in Adelaide SA. Adelaide has been voted the World’s 5th most liveable city & the top 5 must-see regions in the world. Wow! We reckon this is a great place to live too. It was settled as a libertarian utopia and it still resembles this today. It is so easy to get around and is a great place to drive (just not in March)- you can still get a car park in the city centre; rent and housing are affordable; and we have some of the best events such as the Adelaide 500, Womad, Fringe, and Adelaide festival. We have the Adelaide Oval and the best wine districts in easy reach.

Although Williams OT is based in Adelaide the job itself offers great flexibility and we are set up for you to work remotely as required. The job is predominantly out on the road so the in-between work can be conducted from your home, the Williams OT office (if you are in Adelaide) or a cafe. Williams OT is looking to expand our model of practice into every state of Australia, so working remotely is worked into our structure.

Should You Apply?

We only want to hear from people who:

• are qualified as a driver trained OT.
• want to be part of a growing and innovative company.
• don’t want to just come in and do the job and go home. We are looking for passionate people with a can-do attitude.
• want the opportunity to be more than just an assessor, and really want to become advanced in driver rehab and be a part of something positive for our clients.
• like the idea of flexible work arrangements in a beautiful, peaceful city. That means you need to be able to work independently.
• likes to travel on occasions

If you answered Yes to these questions, then you should get in contact.

What to do next:

The position of Driver Trained OT is a permanent part-time position,  with the opportunity to expand as the business continues to grow. You will need your own license, your own vehicle, and pass clearance checks for working with vulnerable clients.
