APM Graduates WorkCare

Rehabilitation, reimagined

Most graduate programs hand you a caseload and a supervisor and call it support. The APM WorkCare Graduate Program was built to do something more ambitious than that. Here, you'll start your career at the intersection of allied health and innovation - working with digital wellbeing tools, data-informed platforms, psychosocial screening and VR-assisted recovery programs that are actively redefining what workplace rehabilitation looks like. You won't just be learning the fundamentals of return-to-work. You'll be learning how the sector is being transformed and you'll be part of doing it. If you've recently graduated or are about to graduate in occupational therapy, physiotherapy, exercise physiology, psychology or rehabilitation counselling, this is where your career takes a different shape.

What you can expect from the program

This is a 12-month program in a permanent, full-time role - structured to give you the clinical grounding, the scheme-specific knowledge and the exposure to cutting-edge tools that will accelerate your career from the very beginning. 

 On the APM WorkCare Graduate Program, the support is structured, the learning is deliberate and the work you do from the very start is genuinely consequential.

Support

Over 100 hours of structured learning in your first 12 months - an investment valued at more than $23,000 sets APM WorkCare apart from day one. You'll move through facilitator-led inductions across health and scheme-specific portfolios, targeted digital and face-to-face education and regular one-to-one supervision with your team manager. Mentoring is aligned to key milestones and case complexity, so as your workload grows, so does your support structure.

Growth

Most graduates won't touch tools like psychosocial risk screening, VR pain recovery programs or data-informed outcome platforms until years into their career. At APM WorkCare, you'll be working with them from the start. You'll learn how digital innovation and evidence-based practice work together and why that combination is increasingly central to high-quality rehabilitation. This early exposure builds a skills profile that goes well beyond what traditional clinical pathways can offer.

Impact

APM WorkCare operates at the system level - partnering with employers, insurers and government to shape how rehabilitation is delivered across entire industries and workforces. The impact you have as a graduate isn't limited to the individuals in your caseload. Through the schemes and programs you'll be part of, your work contributes to outcomes at a scale that matters. And when an injured worker returns to the job they love, or an employer builds a safer, healthier workforce - you'll know you were part of making that happen.​

What we give you


We've built a great range of perks, benefits and support structures to fuel your growth, protect your wellbeing and reward you for the work you do.
