Job description

REMOTE SPEECH PATHOLOGIST | PIONEERS TUTORING & SPEECH

Australia-wide | Remote | Permanent Part-Time (~30 hrs/week)

We're Pioneers Tutoring & Speech, and we're growing! We're done with "fix-it" therapy. Kids with ASD, ADHD, dyslexia, and other language differences don't need to be fixed—they need someone who shows up genuinely thrilled to work with them and provides neurodivergent-affirming care.

About the Role

Go past basic articulation. Structured literacy, phonemic awareness, phonics, and the oral-language-to-reading pipeline—this is where you'll do your deepest work. You'll deliver a balanced mix of comprehensive speech and cognitive assessments, direct therapy, and developmental therapy. You'll also have dedicated, billable indirect time built in for reporting, scoring, and planning. You have full clinical autonomy with no rigid, word-for-word scripts—just your clinical judgement and your personality.

What You'll Do

•Deliver speech pathology sessions and comprehensive speech and cognitive assessments

•Bring your own clinical judgement and personality to sessions—this isn't a rigid, script-led role

•Deliver developmental therapy sessions alongside your speech caseload

•Enjoy dedicated, billable time for reporting, scoring, and session planning

•Watch kids rewrite their own story—not "become better communicators" in the abstract, but actually get there, session by session

•Work with a high-value caseload of engaged families who prioritise intervention

What You Bring

•SPA membership (or eligibility)

•2–5+ years paediatric experience with strong clinical assessment skills

•Passion for neurodivergent-affirming care

•Warmth and energy that's real, not performed

•Current Working with Children Check and NDIS Worker Screening Clearance

The Deal

•Permanent Part-Time Employee role with competitive pay, paid leave, and superannuation

•100% Remote—work from anywhere in Australia

•Full Clinical Autonomy & Support—a supportive team culture where you're trusted to lead

•Schedule: ~30 hours per week (Likely schedule: Monday–Friday, 12:00 PM – 6:00 PM)

••Flexibility: If your availability doesn't line up exactly with these hours, we still encourage you to reach out—we'd love to chat and see what might work!
