Senior Physical Therapist - Clinic Lead & Clinical Instructor
$98.08kGardena Physical Therapy
We're looking for an experienced Physical Therapist ready to lead, teach, and treat — all in one role. As our Senior PT, Clinic Lead, and Clinical Instructor, you'll shape patient outcomes, mentor the next generation of PTs, and help run a thriving outpatient orthopedic clinic in Gardena, CA.
This is not your average PT job. It's a dual-impact role for a clinician who is as passionate about developing talent as they are about hands-on patient care.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Evaluate and treat orthopedic patients using evidence-based, manual therapy–focused care
- Lead daily clinic operations and serve as the point-of-contact in the director's absence
- Supervise and mentor PTAs, PT Aides, and clinical staff
- Host and evaluate PT students during clinical rotations using the APTA CPI
- Liaise with affiliate PT program coordinators (ACCEs) on student performance
- Contribute to staff development, scheduling, and quality improvement
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Active California PT License
- Minimum 2 years of outpatient orthopedic experience (required for CI eligibility)
- APTA Credentialed Clinical Instructor (CCI) certification — or willingness to obtain within 6 months
- Experience or strong interest in supervising PT students
- Leadership mindset with strong communication and team-building skills
- Proficiency in manual therapy and functional orthopedic assessment
WHAT WE OFFER
- Competitive salary + sign-on bonus (details at interview)
- Health, dental, vision, 401(k) with matching, HSA, PTO, life insurance
- Tuition reimbursement, CEU support, and license reimbursement
- Flexible scheduling: 5-, 8-, or 10-hour shifts, Monday–Friday
- A collaborative, manual therapy–focused clinic culture with room to grow
Years Experience: 1 - 3 years
Salary: $98,080 - $125,000 Annual
Bonus/Commission: No
