Town Information:

Situated at the top of the Whitsundays, Bowen is a coastal paradise, with eight beautiful beaches to enjoy and explore. A quick dip in one of Bowen's bays uncovers an underwater treasure of fringing coral reef and tropical marine life!

Bowen's Horseshoe Bay

Bowen is a haven for lovers of the outdoor lifestyle, with sailing, fishing, hiking, snorkelling, camping, beach combing and boating all popular activities right on the doorstep. Coupled with a rich diversity of local produce and seafood, Bowen is the perfect place for a sea-change and relaxed lifestyle, especially with family.

Bowen is located 1160 km north from Brisbane via the Bruce Highway, and halfway between Mackay (192 km to south) and Townsville (205 km to north). There are affordable, direct airfares of less than $300 return between Whitsunday airport (Proserpine) to Brisbane, Sydney & Melbourne.

Bowen has a population of around 10,000 people, and all year around there is a constant flow of tourists including Backpackers and Caravaners with an estimated 40,000 people flowing through in peak season alone.

A large regional centre, Bowen has all required major facilities & services, including supermarkets, hospital and a range of schooling options including private education.

As a bonus, Bowen is a short drive to nearby Airlie Beach, a popular tourist location with excellent nightlife and the main departure points for Whitsunday Island & Great Barrier Reef cruises

Practice information:

The practice is a dynamic and fast-growing clinic. The demand for Physiotherapy in Bowen has simply been extraordinary since the clinic's establishment in 2019.

Being a regional location there is a low concentration of local healthcare services and specialities; consequently, the variety of clientele is fantastic, ranging daily from simple musculoskeletal injuries through to complex, community based Neurological care. Bowen Physiotherapy also offer pre-employment and corporate services.

We are passionate about serving the Bowen community by providing high quality, primary healthcare services.

We're currently seeking a physiotherapist to join our team in a full-time permanent role. As our new physiotherapist, you'll have a strong commitment to high profession standards and demonstrate empathy for the needs of our varied client base.

We'll provide a supportive team environment where you'll work side-by-side with the Practice director who is a full-time physiotherapist and be supported by our yoga instructor & admin support team.

Working at the practice will provide you with a varied and stimulating caseload, growth opportunities and the stability and support of a dedicated small team environment. If you are a new graduate, don't let the variety sway you - we can manage your caseload to meet your strengths. Whatever your desires are as a clinician, Bowen Physiotherapy is the ideal place for you to work and grow.

After Hours requirements:

Permanent, full time position. Hours are negotiable. i.e. the candidate can elect their own schedule to meet the full-time position between 8-6PM weekdays, and 8-12PM Saturdays.

Candidate profile:

The Ideal candidate can offer stability to the practice with a commitment for 2 or more years employment.

Highly desired are candidates with a passion for Pilates and Yoga therapy, and a strong predilection for exercise-based and evidence-based physiotherapy intervention.

Highly desired are candidates with previous experience in private practice, working in regional-remote towns, specialties of Physiotherapy (Women's health, Neuro and geriatrics, MSK, Sports, and Peads).

Excellent interpersonal skills and proficiency in English is required.
