Why You Will Enjoy Being on This Team - and in This City

Moving to
Portland
offers more than just a job-it provides a gateway to a lifestyle that embraces creativity and community connection. Forget the usual hustle of urban environments; here, you'll find a rich tapestry of parks, rivers ideal for outdoor adventures, and trails winding through lush forests. The local culture is alive with diverse food scenes, artistic expressions, and an eclectic mix of shops that inspire a walkable neighborly charm.
The city buzzes with artistic energy-from world-class culinary experiences to live music thriving in local venues. Although Portland attracts a blend of visionaries and pioneers, it retains a pace that permits leisurely strolls and spontaneous conversations over coffee or craft beer.
Your Ideal Candidate Profile
We seek individuals who regard occupational therapy as more than just a job, but rather a passion and commitment to service. If you're exhilarated by the progress of a patient regaining function, taking a few more steps unassisted, or conveying a thought they once found difficult to express, we want to meet you.
Whether you're an established OTR/L or a fresh graduate, your success will be fueled by a blend of compassion, drive, and humility. If you envision a career that harmonizes exceptional care with an equally fulfilling lifestyle - your search ends here.
Let's Create Something Meaningful Together
This is your chance to participate in something beyond a basic job description. Here, your work will not only influence lives, but also empower recoveries and restore what may have been lost. You'll thrive in a region celebrated for balancing rigorous ambition with serene life enjoyment.
If you're excited to develop professionally, contribute to the community, and immerse yourself in a welcoming environment - we cannot wait to welcome you into our team.
