Exercise Physiologist

About the job

About Us

Uplift Exercise Physiology are a boutique provider of quality focused Exercise Physiology services. We believe that exercise changes lives and our mission is: ‘To inspire health and quality of life, through exercise and education’.

We have been steadily growing over the past five years due to our significant emphasis on quality care and stakeholder communication. This has excitingly led to the point where we are in need of ANOTHER Exercise Physiologist to join our team!!

We predominantly assist people who have been injured at work, and people with disabilities, via prescription of patient/participant centred, evidence-based, rehabilitative exercise and education interventions - we see a wide variety of people with conditions including but not limited to: musculoskeletal, mental health, chronic pain and disability.

We like to think of ourselves as ‘free range’ Exercise Physiologists who if not working from home, are out on the road helping people in community based settings (gyms, pools, homes, workplaces, residential aged care facilities), or at our new clinic in Mayfield. You will not find a more flexible job.

This is not an admin role where your prescriptive skills are unutilised, this is a role where you will have complete ownership and responsibility for developing and delivering exercise interventions to people on a daily basis.

We have flexibility around who we can accommodate for this position - we want to hear from you no matter if you are a new graduate or a senior clinician.

We are huge proponents of continuing professional development and want to ensure that team members are fully supported to become the best possible EP (and best version of themselves outside of work). You will be very well supported by a hands on company director, and have access to a large team of EP's to collaborate with. You will also get access to regular internal professional development sessions.

On top of providing care for our patients and outcomes for our referrers, we are truly passionate about advancing the profession of Exercise Physiology and creating meaningful and lasting careers specifically for Exercise Physiologists.
