Lead Clinically & Make a Difference

Are you an experienced paediatric Speech Pathologist who enjoys mentoring other clinicians but still loves working directly with children and families?

Join Little Steps Therapies in a senior clinical role that offers the opportunity to supervise, mentor and support other Speech Pathologists while continuing to develop your own clinical expertise.

With dedicated supervision time, flexible working arrangements and an established paediatric caseload, you'll have the support to make a meaningful impact without taking on a traditional management position.

Why join us?

• Up to $130,000 + super + bonus, depending on experience

• Protected supervision time built into your weekly diary

• Flexible working arrangements, including work-from-home opportunities

• Clinical autonomy to develop your caseload around your interests and expertise

• Generous professional development budget and opportunities for ongoing learning

• Dedicated administrative support to manage bookings and day-to-day administration

• Work-life balance with no weekends or late evenings

• Established multidisciplinary team of Speech Pathologists, Occupational Therapists and Allied Health Assistants

• Free secure onsite parking at our Rouse Hill clinic

About the Role

As our Senior Speech Pathologist, you'll combine a rewarding paediatric caseload with opportunities to develop and support other clinicians.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Delivering high-quality paediatric assessments and intervention

• Providing individual and group clinical supervision

• Mentoring junior and developing Speech Pathologists

• Supporting clinical reasoning and complex case discussions

• Contributing to clinical resources and service development

This is a senior clinical position rather than a people-management role. Dedicated time for supervision and mentoring will be incorporated into your weekly schedule.

About You

We're looking for an experienced Speech Pathologist who is passionate about paediatrics and enjoys helping other clinicians grow.

You'll bring:

• At least four years of clinical experience, preferably predominantly in paediatrics

• Demonstrated experience supervising or mentoring other Speech Pathologists

• Strong clinical reasoning and paediatric assessment and intervention skills

• Excellent communication and collaborative skills

• A recognised Speech Pathology qualification and current SPA membership with CPSP status, or eligibility
