Job Description

Support people to rebuild confidence, independence and hope.

Every day, people recovering from injury or illness need support and guidance to take important steps forward. As a Rehabilitation Consultant with Konekt, you’ll walk alongside clients as they navigate recovery, return to work, and help them to reconnect with what matters most.

Expect your day to be full of variety and real impact where you’ll:

  • Assess clients’ rehabilitation needs following injury or illness - physical, ergonomic, psychosocial or functional capacity evaluations.
  • Support clients to define meaningful recovery or employment goals, then co-design and deliver tailored rehabilitation plans.
  • Manage cases end-to-end: coordinate with workplaces, healthcare providers or insurers, monitor progress, adjust plans, and support sustainable outcomes.
  • Provide expert advice - ergonomic, workplace-modification, functional capacity or return-to-work -based on your clinical specialism.

Build relationships and collaborate with multiple stakeholders: clients, their treating practitioners, employers, insurers — helping bring everyone together around a shared goal of recovery and reintegration

Why you’ll love working at Konekt

  • Flexibility and autonomy: Feel trusted and empowered to manage your own diary
  • Leaders who get you: Be supported and mentored to achieve your goals by leaders who were once clinicians
  • Tools to succeed: mobile, laptop, training and strong clinical frameworks
  • Benefits that matter: incentives, salary sacrificing and optional extra leave

What you’ll bring

  • Tertiary qualifications in Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy or Exercise Physiology.
  • AHPRA or ESSA (AEP) professional registration.
  • Pass a national criminal check, prior to commencing employment
  • A current WWCC (Working with children check)   
  • Full Australian working rights
  • A driver’s licence and willingness to work in different settings (workplaces, client homes, remote-onsite assessments)
  • A collaborative, problem-solving mindset

And most importantly, a genuine commitment to client-centred care, empathy, strong communication and adaptability cross diverse client needs
