We are seeking a licensed Physiotherapist with a strong interest in movement, exercise therapy, flexibility, and functional performance, rather than acute or post-surgical rehabilitation.
This role sits at the intersection of clinical assessment, insurance-based physiotherapy services, exercise delivery, and patient engagement. The Physiotherapist will conduct structured assessment sessions for different patient cohorts, deliver approved insurance sessions, lead exercise-based sessions in our gym facility, and actively contribute to service growth through appropriate upselling and cross-referrals.
The role requires both clinical competence and commercial awareness, with an understanding of insurance coding, approvals, and clinic workflows.

- Ensure sessions are safe, goal-oriented, and aligned with each patient’s clinical and lifestyle needs.
- Adapt exercise intensity and programming based on patient progress and engagement.
- Upselling & Cross-Referral Responsibilities:
- Actively identify opportunities to:
- Upsell additional physiotherapy or exercise sessions
