Description
This isn't a suburban waiting room. It's a small, multidisciplinary paediatric clinic on a farm in Guanaba, 10 minutes from Oxenford and Nerang. Horses, dogs, creek access, outdoor therapy spaces, and fresh air. If you've been doing great clinical work in a setting that drains you, this is the opposite of that.
Hinterland Children's Therapy is looking for an experienced paediatric Speech Pathologist to join our team full-time or 4 days per week (36 hrs)
The role
You'll work with children aged 0 to 12, primarily NDIS-funded, across a range of presentations. Your caseload is capped, your days are structured with admin time built in (not squeezed into lunch), and you'll have your own fully equipped therapy room. Our approach is play-based, relationship-first, and person-centred. You'll have real opportunity to collaborate with OT and physio colleagues on joint sessions and interdisciplinary goals.
This is a full-time position (5 days per week). Part-time (4 days per week) considered for the right applicant.
What we offer
Above-award salary, commensurate with experience. We're looking for someone 3 or more years into their career and will pay accordingly.
Capped daily appointments with scheduled breaks and 2 hours of protected non-clinical time each day plus additional schedule admin time per week.
Your own fully equipped therapy room and clinic computer
Strong admin support (you focus on clinical work, not paperwork and phone calls)
External Monthly supervision, fortnightly on request or when required. Funded by the clinic.
Generous professional development allowance- $2000 per annum
Peer mentoring and a genuinely collaborative team
Opportunity to contribute to group programs and clinician training
Training provided in nature based and animal assisted therapy
Nature-based and animal-assisted therapy with horses and dogs as part of the team (yes, really)
What we're looking for
You are 3 or more years post-graduation and confident working independently with paediatric NDIS clients. You are warm with families, thorough in your documentation, and interested in growing your practice in a non-traditional setting. You want to be part of a small team that cares about quality, not volume.
Applicants must hold:
Tertiary degree in Speech Pathology
Membership with Speech Pathology Australia
Professional Indemnity and Public Liability Insurance
Current Police Certificate and Working with Children Check
Current drivers licence and own vehicle
