Lead Speech Pathologist

The organisation is values-led, committed to providing high-quality, person-centred support that empowers participants to achieve their goals. The organisation is led by experienced clinicians and encourages autonomy, continuous learning, and collaboration.

You'll have the autonomy to develop a Speech Pathology service from its early stages, establish clinical processes and service delivery frameworks, and ultimately build a team of Speech Pathologists who you'll support and mentor as the discipline expands.

You'll continue to manage an NDIS caseload aligned with your clinical interests, while having the opportunity to influence the broader direction and development of the service. This is an opportunity to bring your clinical expertise, ideas and leadership capabilities into an organisation that is looking to expand its allied health offering.
