Build a Magnetic Careers Page That Brings in High-Calibre Team Members
If you’re a physiotherapy practice owner looking to grow your business, chances are you already know that attracting the right team is one of the biggest pieces of the puzzle.
Without great people, it’s hard to deliver great outcomes—for your patients or your business.
Whether you’re trying to scale, free up your time, or simply build a more robust and resilient clinic, it all starts with the team. And one of the most powerful (and often overlooked) strategies for attracting top talent is this:
Build a magnetic careers page that makes the best physios want to work with you.
Let’s break down exactly what that means—and how to do it right.
First Impressions Matter: Is Your Website Working for You?
Before we even get to your careers page, let’s talk about your website.
It’s your 24/7 representative. If a talented physio lands on your site and it’s clunky, outdated, or impersonal, that first impression could cost you a great hire.
Your site should be:
- Professional, modern, and user-friendly
- Warm and welcoming in tone
- Easy to navigate, especially for younger professionals who expect intuitive design
- Clearly showcasing your clinic’s brand, people, values, and strengths
Your website isn’t just for patients—it’s a critical recruitment tool too.
What Makes a Magnetic Careers Page?
Once your main site is up to standard, it’s time to focus on your careers page.
Here are the key components every magnetic careers page should include:
1. Team Testimonials
Show real stories from real team members. Include written testimonials and, ideally, short video clips. These are the equivalent of “Google reviews” for potential hires—proof that your workplace is a great place to be.
2. Showcase Your Team Spirit
Include images or videos of team events, social activities, or day-to-day clinic life. People want to see the vibe before they commit. Is your team energetic, collaborative, supportive? Show it.
3. Commitment to Professional Development
Top talent wants to grow. Talk openly about your PD pathways, support structures, mentoring programs, or CPD budgets. Consider recording a short video from you or a team leader speaking directly about your clinic’s approach to development.
4. Career Progression Pathways
Ambitious physios aren’t looking for a job—they’re looking for a journey. Detail what progression can look like in your practice. For example: clinical lead roles, team leadership, management tracks, or niche specialisation opportunities.
5. Ownership Opportunities
This isn’t for everyone—but for practices serious about attracting A-players, signalling the potential for ownership (under clear performance criteria) can be a game changer. For some candidates, knowing there’s room to grow into leadership is highly motivating.
6. Work-Life Balance
If your clinic values flexibility and family, say so. Whether it’s part-time schedules, flexible hours, or hybrid report-writing days, highlight how your team can maintain a healthy balance. This is particularly important for attracting experienced physios and parents re-entering the workforce.
7. Community and Social Impact
If your practice gives back to the community, let potential hires know. Whether it’s volunteering, charity work, or a meaningful mission, candidates are drawn to organisations that serve a bigger purpose.
8. Social Activities
Social culture plays a major role in workplace satisfaction. Share photos or videos of team retreats, birthdays, games nights, or fitness challenges. Make sure it feels real—not staged.
9. Performance Recognition
If your practice recognises and rewards high performers, highlight this clearly. Whether it’s retreats, bonuses, special experiences, or public recognition, strong candidates want to know that their efforts will be appreciated.
The Big Idea: Show, Don’t Just Tell
Words on a page are one thing. But what truly makes a careers page magnetic is what candidates can see and feel.
- Can they picture themselves working in your team?
- Do they feel inspired by your culture and mission?
- Do they believe they’ll be supported and challenged?
When your careers page answers “yes” to all three, you’ll attract better applicants—and retain them for longer.
