We’re Hiring a Physiotherapist | Townsville, QLD

If you’re a physio who thrives in the gym, enjoys working with athletes, and wants to bridge the gap between rehab and performance then this is for you!

We’re looking for a casual or part-time Physiotherapist to join our team in a high-performance environment.

The Role:
Manage a varied caseload across:
• Athletes (youth → elite)
• General population
• Special populations (injury rehab, return-to-function)

💪 Deliver 1:1 and semi-private rehab sessions integrated into performance training
📈 Work alongside strength & conditioning coaches in a true rehab-to-performance model
🎯 Play a key role in developing youth athletes and long-term athletic development pathways

What You’ll Step Into:
- A fast-growing performance facility, not a traditional clinic.
- A collaborative team environment with clear standards
- The opportunity to build your caseload and impact quickly
- A system built around getting people back to performance, not just out of pain

What We’re Looking For:
✅ AHPRA registered Physiotherapist
✅ Experience in private practice, sport, or rehab environments
✅ Confident working on the gym floor
✅ Strong communication and coaching ability
✅ Proactive, reliable, and performance-driven

📍 Location: Townsville, North Queensland

🔥 Challenge Day 🔥

200m on the rower… Bicep curls only!

Here’s a handful of our Youth Athletes having a crack at the challenge for this week!

Lots of burning biceps and probably a lifelong hatred for the rower now 😂

We value our high standards during our Athlete and Youth Athlete sessions, but you need pockets of fun act cities sprinkled in too!

Week 5, Realisation week for our ELITE YOUTH ATHLETES in their first training block of the year.

FIGHT WEEK - MUAY THAI

Join Callum, one of our Elite 10 Athletes as we take you through a priming session for his upcoming boxing bout this weekend.

Our aim is to keep intensity and intent through the session high, with a decrease in total volume throughout the week, trying to keep athletes as fresh as possible come their event.

Our Head of Athletic Performance coach Nathan started working with Callum to rehabilitate a lower back injury in last 2025. Since then he's progressed through his differing phases of training to get himself ready for this fight, then an upcoming QLD Title fight in March 2026.

We're thrilled to be on this journey with Cal and cant wait to see where his potential takes him.

If you're looking to take your rehab and performance to the next level, send us a DM to get started!
