Why work as a Sports Trainer through Optimus Health?
Opportunities to work in a wide range of sports including Footy, Football & Rugby as well as Teenagers and Adult Sport
Get paid a LEGAL hourly rate for the work that you complete. We are often horrified to hear of practices that pay a ‘set fee’ for training and game coverage which generally works out to be WELL BELOW what is legal in Australia.
Get ACTUAL HANDS on experience. Sure it might sound great to work under the club doctor or qualified sports physiotherapist - in reality, what this means is that you will probably run water for the season. At Optimus, you will learn and be able to apply your learning to real-life injuries.
We provide regular in-house Professional Development sessions to help you learn.
We give you the opportunity to shadow our qualified physiotherapists in clinic or our qualified S&C’s in our high performance centre.
We provide a fun, supportive, educational environment which sets you up to succeed once you qualify.
We almost always offer our new graduate physiotherapy roles to one of our Sports Trainer team members
Applications are open for those who are studying:
Physiotherapy
Medicine or Paramedicine
Myotherapy
Osteopathy
Exercise Physiology
Sports & Exercise Science * (you must have completed Anatomy A&B before you can work)
