Full Job Description

JOIN A HIGHLY MISSION-DRIVEN ORTHOPEDIC ORGANIZATION

Physical Therapy Assistant (PTA)

Transform recovery into possibility.

At Performance Ortho, physical therapy is a central voice in connected orthopedic care — not a downstream handoff. As a PTA, you will play an essential role in helping people return to work, family, sport, independence, and the moments that make life feel like theirs again.

Founded in 2001, Performance Ortho brings rehabilitation, orthopedic care, and surgery together around one patient journey. Your clinical judgment will be respected, your growth will be supported, and your impact will be visible every day.

DO YOU SEE YOURSELF HERE?

You are curious and coachable. You are humble enough to learn, confident enough to speak up, and energized by a team that wins together.

ROLE AT A GLANCE

LOCATION

Somerset, New Jersey

SCHEDULE

Full time | Monday through Friday | No weekends | Two built-in half days each week

COMPENSATION

Competitive compensation based on experience, capabilities, and internal equity

BONUS

Performance bonus opportunity tied to a separate written plan

REPORTS TO

Clinical Director

CLASSIFICATION

Non-Exempt

WHY YOUR WORK MATTERS

Our model is built to remove the fragmentation patients often experience. As a PTA, you will work closely with Physical Therapists, orthopedic physicians, and other specialists to help patients move through their recovery with greater clarity, continuity, and confidence.

You will not simply carry out a treatment plan. You will observe, communicate, educate, encourage, and contribute meaningful clinical insight that helps the entire care team deliver better outcomes.

THE WORK

What you will own

Partner with Physical Therapists to implement individualized plans of care and adjust treatment within your scope based on patient progress and clinical direction.
Deliver evidence-based therapeutic exercise, manual therapy, massage, traction, neuromuscular re-education, and other appropriate interventions within your scope of practice.
Monitor patient response and progress, communicate meaningful observations to supervising Physical Therapists, and help the care team make informed decisions.
Educate and coach patients so they understand their treatment, progress, and role in their recovery.
Complete timely, accurate, and compliant documentation that supports continuity of care and appropriate reimbursement.
Collaborate with Physical Therapists, orthopedic physicians, advanced practice providers, and rehabilitation team members.
Support an organized, safe, efficient clinic environment and contribute to smooth patient flow.
Create an exceptional patient experience grounded in grace, kindness, honor, respect, and clinical excellence.

HOW YOU WILL CONNECT ACROSS THE BUSINESS

Your onboarding includes time beyond your home clinic: a visit to at least one other clinic, the Ambulatory Surgery Center, and a half day at headquarters. You will meet executive leadership and learn how each headquarters function supports the clinics and patient experience.

You will also be assigned a mentor who exemplifies the Performance Ortho mission and values in practice. Your mentor, direct manager, and People Operations partner will support your 30-, 60-, and 90-day experience.

GROWTH AND OUTCOMES

What success looks like

First 30 days

Build relationships, learn clinical and documentation workflows, understand the full patient journey, and establish a clear development plan with your manager and mentor.

By 60 days

Confidently support an appropriate caseload within your scope, communicate reliably with supervising clinicians, and demonstrate consistent treatment, documentation, and patient-education habits.

By 90 days and beyond

Deliver safe, patient-centered care with sound clinical judgment; contribute to patient outcomes and experience; and identify meaningful opportunities to strengthen care, flow, or teamwork.

WHAT YOU BRING

Required

Graduate of an accredited Physical Therapist Assistant program.
Current New Jersey Physical Therapist Assistant license, or eligibility to obtain it before the start date.
Strong foundational knowledge of physical therapy principles and the ability to apply treatment techniques within your scope of practice.
Clear, compassionate communication and a commitment to timely, accurate documentation.
Clinical judgment, integrity, and a genuine desire to help people regain function and confidence.

Preferred

Outpatient orthopedic or post-operative rehabilitation experience.
Experience with therapeutic exercise, manual therapy, massage, traction, and neuromuscular re-education.
Experience collaborating with Physical Therapists and multidisciplinary care teams.

New graduates are encouraged to apply. Curiosity, coachability, and mission alignment matter here.

BELONG, GROW, AND MAKE AN IMPACT

You will thrive here if you are...

Mission driven and curious. Motivated by meaningful work, eager to learn, and energized by the chance to transform lives.
Humble enough to learn and bold enough to grow. Open to feedback, willing to advocate for better care, and ready to keep improving.
An owner who wins with the team. Accountable for the experience and outcomes you influence, while believing the best work happens together.

What you can expect from us

We are building Total Rewards around what helps exceptional clinicians do their best work and build a meaningful life beyond it.

Pay that honors your expertise and impact. Competitive compensation based on relevant experience, capabilities, and internal equity, plus eligibility for a performance bonus tied to a separate written plan.
A schedule built for a sustainable career. A Monday through Friday schedule, no weekends, and two built-in half days each week, giving you meaningful clinical time and consistent room for life outside work.
Time away that grows with you. Our planned leave design starts regular full-time employees with 120 hours of Vacation and Personal Time each year, increasing with service up to 160 hours. It also provides a separate 40-hour New Jersey Earned Sick Leave bank and eight paid holidays, including two Winter Restoration Days.
Support for life's important moments. Enhanced bereavement leave, Growing Together return support, and a parental bonding benefit that can bring eligible employees to 100 percent of base pay for up to eight workweeks when combined with approved State benefits.
Benefits designed to compete for exceptional clinicians. The proposed licensed provider package has Performance Ortho covering 85 percent of employee-only medical coverage on the anchor plan, with broad network medical choices, dental, vision, HSA or FSA access, and retirement, life, and disability programs as finalized.
Care for the whole person and the whole family. Little Steps, Strong Starts helps employees find and navigate childcare resources. Programs in development include voluntary, confidential Pastoral Care and a Transformation Care Grant of up to $1,500 for qualifying unexpected personal or family hardship.
Growth surrounded by people who want you to win. You will receive an assigned onboarding mentor, clinical mentorship, direct access to an integrated orthopedic team, and role-based development support that may include continuing education, licensure, certification, and company-paid BLS training through the proposed Life Safety Team.

MISSION, VALUES, AND INVITATION

How we work

Mission: Transform lives with love.

Vision: Healthcare without barriers — creating a standard of care by which all others are measured.

Play to win, don't lay up short. Pursue excellence and go beyond what is expected.
Act like an owner, not a worker. Take action and stay accountable for outcomes.
Engage, energetically. Show up prepared, lead yourself well, and bring constructive energy.
Mission first, team over self. Collaborate across roles and put the shared purpose first.
Be humble, yet bold. Lead with kindness, curiosity, courage, and honest feedback.

READY TO HELP PEOPLE MOVE FORWARD?

If you want to build your career where collaboration is real, excellence is expected, and your work changes what is possible for patients, we would love to meet you.

Performance Ortho is an equal opportunity employer. We consider qualified applicants without regard to legally protected characteristics and provide reasonable accommodations consistent with applicable law.
