Description

Skills on the Hill - Arlington, VA & Washington, DC

You know the version of yourself that shows up on your best days - the one who has time to think, to plan a session thoughtfully, to actually read that article you bookmarked, to talk through a tricky case with someone who's seen it before. That therapist is who we hire for, and who we protect once you're here.

Skills on the Hill is a pediatric OT, PT, and speech practice with locations on Capitol Hill in DC and in Arlington, VA. We're looking for an Occupational Therapist who wants to do this work well for a long time - not just survive the week.

Lower caseload targets, on purpose. We've done the math on what it costs to give you breathing room, and we pay that cost intentionally. You'll have time to prep, document, collaborate, and grow - not just churn through back-to-back sessions.

Mentorship that's actually built into your week. Not a "we have an open door" line in an ad. Structured mentoring, case consultation, and senior clinicians who treat your development as part of their job.

Professional development we fund and protect time for. Continuing ed, certifications, conference support, and an in-house culture of learning where curiosity is the norm, not the exception.

Benefits that reflect what we believe. Our health, retirement, and PTO benefits are meaningfully richer than what's standard in private pediatric practice. We'd rather invest in your wellbeing than advertise a higher base and hope you don't notice what's missing.

A culture you can feel within a week. Collaborative, kind, accountable, and genuinely fun. Our admin team handles scheduling so you can focus on clinical care. Our clinics are well-stocked, organized, and set up by people who actually use the equipment.

We'll be straight with you: our base salaries are not the highest in the DMV. They're competitive and fair, but if you're comparison-shopping on salary alone, some practices will quote you a bigger number.

It's worth reading between the lines on those offers. Higher salaries in this field are almost always funded by something - usually high caseloads, minimal mentoring, thin benefits, high turnover, or a culture that quietly burns people out by year two. We've chosen a different model. We invest in lower caseloads, real mentorship, comprehensive benefits, and a workplace people stay at. Our total package - and the version of your career it makes possible - is where the real value lives.

If that tradeoff resonates, you're probably one of us.
