Psychology Discipline Lead | $150k + Super | Paediatrics Practice | Subiaco

I've been recruiting across Allied Health for 6+ years and one of the biggest challenges I see is how we develop future leaders.

Great clinicians are promoted into leadership roles and suddenly expected to manage people, budgets, performance and everything else that comes with running a team.

Often without formal training or even a reduction in their clinical caseload!!

So when one of Australia's leading paediatric practices called me about this opportunity, I immediately said:

Rather than searching endlessly for an experienced Psychology leader who ticks every box, they're looking for the right person. Someone with solid clinical experience who's ready to take the next step in their career.

Someone with the right attitude, values and potential who they can invest and develop into a great leader.

And importantly, they're putting the training, time and support in place to make it all happen.

The Opportunity

You’ll join an established paediatric practice known for its family-centred, strengths-based and attachment-informed approach.

As Psychology Discipline Lead, you’ll:

Lead and support the Psychology team, from Provisional Psychologists through to experienced clinicians.

Report directly to the Managing Director and join the leadership team.

Oversee clinical quality, governance and professional development.

Manage the Psychology discipline’s budget and contribute to its growth.

Help develop the Provisional Psychologist transition-to-practice program.

Receive funded Board‑approved supervisor training and ongoing mentoring in leadership, operations and financial management.

They don’t expect you to know everything from day one. They understand that being a great clinician doesn’t automatically make you a great leader and they are prepared to invest in helping you become just that.

What About Your Caseload?

At full-time hours, your week looks like this:

4 clinical days: Five one-hour appointments per day, totalling 20 billable hours per week.

1 dedicated leadership day: A protected 7.6 hours for team management, governance, budgets and strategy.

Not a leadership day where you’re still squeezing clients between meetings. A position that focus’s on leading your team.

Who Would This Suit?

I’m looking to speak with either clinical Psychologists or registered Psychologists who have a few years of paediatric experience and are ready to explore leadership.

Perhaps you’re already the person your colleagues come to for advice, you’ve supported junior clinicians or you’ve naturally taken on more responsibility.

You enjoy clinical work but you’re also interested in developing people and understanding how a successful Allied Health business operates.

Ideally you’ll have:

A Master’s qualification in Psychology and current general registration with the Psychology Board of Australia.

A few years of post-registration experience, preferably in paediatrics.

Eligibility to undertake Board‑approved supervisor training.

An interest in mentoring and developing other Psychologists.

Strong alignment with family‑centred, strengths‑based and attachment‑informed care.

Confidence in providing feedback and having challenging conversations.

An interest in learning the operational and commercial side of Allied Health.

Clinical endorsement is welcomed but not essential. Also, if you are already in leadership, I’d still love to hear from you.

Salary & Benefits

$150k + Super, negotiable based on experience.

Established paediatric practice with multiple Perth clinics.

Fully funded Board‑approved supervisor training.

Direct mentoring and support from the Managing Director.

20 billable hours per week with a protected leadership day.

Opportunity to shape and grow the Psychology discipline.
