Why Elite Edge?

Elite Edge is a sports-focused physiotherapy and rehabilitation clinic based in Gledswood Hills.

You’ll work alongside physiotherapists with extensive experience in elite and community sport and have access to a rehabilitation environment designed to take athletes beyond the treatment room.

The position offers the opportunity to work across the full athlete-development pathway:

Injury -> Rehabilitation -> Strength & Conditioning -> Return to Sport -> Performance

This is an opportunity for an EP who wants to build their career in sports rehabilitation and athlete development, rather than simply work within a traditional clinical EP model.

Part-time commencing 2027, with scope for the position to grow based on performance and service demand.
