Whether your interest is in paediatrics, adults, or a combination of both, the clinic is happy to tailor your caseload to suit your experience and professional interests.

Rather than expecting you to fit into an existing gap, the team takes the time to build a role that works for both you and the practice.

The Role

You'll manage a varied caseload with the flexibility to focus on paediatric clients, adult clients, or a mix of both. Referrals are consistent, allowing you to gradually build a caseload that aligns with your clinical strengths and long-term goals.

Your week may include a combination of clinic appointments and community visits, with flexibility to organise your schedule in a way that works for you. Dedicated time is set aside for documentation, planning, and collaborating with colleagues, while a supportive administration team helps with the day-to-day tasks so you can focus on your clients.

About the Practice

This is a well-established private practice with an excellent reputation in the local community and a steady stream of referrals throughout the year. You'll be joining an experienced and supportive team that values collaboration, open communication, and providing high-quality care.

The practice also places a strong emphasis on maintaining manageable caseloads and creating a positive working environment where clinicians feel supported for the long term.

What's on Offer

• Competitive salary with a transparent incentive structure
• Full-time and part-time opportunities available
• Dedicated administrative support
• Professional development allowance and ongoing mentoring
• Opportunities to further develop your clinical interests
• Stable practice with consistent client demand

About You
