Description

Contract Type: Outsourced Service Provider (OSP)

Are you a qualified physiotherapist ready to elevate human performance in one of Australia’s most high performance operational environments?

Headquarters Air Command (HQAC) is seeking a dynamic professional to join the A9 Human Performance & Safety (HPS) team. This is not your average clinic role – you will be embedded within the Air Force’s Human Performance Optimisation (HPO) work stream, delivering proactive, evidence-based programs that keep our personnel mission-ready and injury-resilient.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Deliver targeted physiotherapy interventions to reduce injury risk and enhance availability
  • Apply performance monitoring, load management, and functional screening in high-stakes settings
  • Collaborate across multidisciplinary teams including PTIs, medical officers, and Defence health staff
  • Travel to operational bases and remote field sites to deliver services where they are needed most
  • Contribute to injury prevention strategy, data reporting, and inter-agency communication

What You Will Bring

  • Physiotherapy degree (or Exercise/Sport Science + postgrad Physio)
  • Minimum 3 years’ experience in occupational or sports performance environments
  • AHPRA registration and Federal Police Check
  • Bonus points for APA titling in sports, musculoskeletal, pain or occupational health

Why This Role?

This is a rare opportunity to apply your expertise in a mission-critical setting, shaping the physical readiness of Australia’s Air Force personnel. You will be part of a forward-thinking team that values innovation, collaboration, and impact - with scope to influence national capability through human performance.
