Speech Therapist

About this role

Mediix is partnering with an established multidisciplinary private practice in Melbourne's northern suburbs to appoint a Speech Pathologist to their growing team. What sets this role apart: you choose the caseload that suits you. Whether you want to build a paediatric caseload, focus on adults, or work across both, the practice will shape the role around your clinical strengths and the areas you want to grow into.
This is a fully clinic-based position — no driving between schools or client homes, no community travel — with a warm, collegial team of Speech Pathologists, Occupational Therapists, Psychologists and allied health support staff working out of a modern, purpose-designed clinic.

About the role
You'll build your own caseload from the practice's steady referral base. Depending on your preference, that might look like:

• Paediatrics — early language delay, ASD, DLD, articulation and phonology, fluency, AAC, school-age literacy and social communication

• Adults — acquired communication disorders, voice, fluency, cognitive-communication and dysphagia

• Mixed — a genuine blend across ages, if variety is what you're after
Day to day, you will:

• Complete comprehensive assessments and formulate clear clinical impressions

• Develop individualised, evidence-based therapy plans

• Deliver 1:1 sessions in clinic, with group work where clinically indicated

• Collaborate closely with the in-house MDT on shared clients

• Partner with families, carers and support workers through coaching and education

• Maintain clinical documentation and complete NDIS, Medicare and DVA reporting as required

• Contribute to team case reviews, in-house PD and peer discussion

What our client offers

• Above-award remuneration, negotiable on experience

• Generous CPD budget, paid study leave and in-house learning sessions

• Structured clinical supervision — genuine mentoring for early-career SPs, and peer support for senior clinicians

• A caseload built around your clinical interests, not simply handed to you

• Fully clinic-based work — predictable hours, no travel time between clients

• Admin, intake and NDIS billing support so your day stays clinical

• Real flexibility — 0.6–1.0 FTE, compressed weeks and school-hours arrangements all considered

• Modern, well-resourced clinic with a full assessment and therapy library

• Employee Assistance Program and a low-turnover, supportive team culture

• Easy access by car and public transport, with on-site parking

About you

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Speech Pathology

• New graduates with strong placement experience are warmly encouraged to apply — structured new-grad support is in place

• Experienced SPs seeking a stable, well-run practice equally welcome

• Strong clinical reasoning, documentation and interpersonal skills

• Working with Children Check (VIC) and NDIS Worker Screening

• Current Victorian driver's licence preferred
