Build More Than a Caseload

If you want a physiotherapy role where you can develop clinically, professionally and personally, we would like to meet you.

At Pain Free Physiotherapy & Allied Health, you will have access to structured mentoring, weekly professional development and an experienced multidisciplinary team — with opportunities to develop not only your clinical skills, but also communication, leadership and an understanding of private practice.

We have been operating in Brisbane's southside since 2004 and are actively involved in physiotherapy education and clinical training.

What You'll Get

• Regular 1:1 clinical mentoring and coaching
• Weekly clinical education and in-service training
• Support for external professional development
• $80k–$105k base + super + performance bonuses for employed physiotherapists
• Flexible full-time, part-time and casual arrangements
• Contractor options for candidates seeking greater flexibility
• Multidisciplinary collaboration and cross-referral opportunities
• Career progression into senior clinical and leadership roles
• Opportunities to learn the business side of private practice
• Potential future partnership opportunities for suitable team members
• Visa sponsorship may be available for suitable candidates

Mentoring That Goes Beyond Treatment Techniques

Our Principal Physiotherapist, Rick Chiang, brings more than 20 years of experience across physiotherapy, education, private practice, business and professional development.

His clinical training includes:

Certified Mulligan Practitioner | Ridgway Method Certified Practitioner | Registered Trigenics Practitioner

Mentoring focuses on developing strong assessment, clinical reasoning and treatment skills rather than simply teaching one treatment formula.

Rick also has training as an NLP Trainer, Hypnotherapy Trainer and Demartini Method Facilitator.

For team members who are interested, mentoring can therefore extend beyond clinical practice into:

• patient communication and rapport
• professional confidence
• managing challenging conversations
• leadership
• goal setting and personal effectiveness
• referral relationship development
• understanding the business side of private practice

The aim is to help you become a confident and well-rounded physiotherapist, not simply someone who treats a full list of patients every day.

A Different Path Depending on Where You Are in Your Career

If you're a new graduate or early-career physio, we will support you to progressively develop your clinical reasoning, communication, caseload management and confidence with more complex patients.

You will have experienced clinicians available for guidance rather than being expected to figure everything out alone.

If you're an experienced physiotherapist, you can have greater autonomy and opportunities to develop an area of interest, build referral relationships, mentor junior clinicians, move into leadership and explore future business or partnership opportunities.

About the Role

You may work with a varied caseload including musculoskeletal, occupational and sports-related presentations.

Your role may include:

• Assessment and treatment
• Manual therapy and therapeutic exercise
• Rehabilitation planning and patient education
• Independent caseload management
• Collaboration with other allied health professionals
• Participation in mentoring and professional development
• Building appropriate professional referral relationships
