We’re Hiring: Speech Pathologist (Northern or Western Suburbs)Full-Time | $80,000 – $120,000 + Super + Exceptional Benefits

Join a therapist-built practice where clinical excellence and real support come first.

At Accessible Care, we don’t just provide services we deliver exceptional, evidence-based clinical support that truly transforms lives. Led by experienced therapists, our business was built from the ground up to solve the common frustrations clinicians face. We understand exactly what you need to thrive: proactive management, robust clinical governance, and a culture that prioritizes your growth and well-being.

Based out of our vibrant Coburg and Sunbury hub, you will service a rewarding, diverse caseload across Melbourne’s Northern or Western suburbs.

What’s in It for You (The Benefits):

• Competitive Salary: $80,000 – $120,000 + Super (commensurate with experience).
• True Clinical Governance: Weekly Clinical Supervision to hone your skills, navigate complex cases, and advance your career.

• Financial Perks: Access to Novated Leasing options to maximize your take-home pay.
• Hybrid Flexibility: Seamlessly balance your week between clinic-based sessions, community visits, and working from home.

• National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)
• Aged Care

Key Responsibilities:

• Conduct comprehensive speech, language, communication, literacy, and swallowing assessments.
• Develop and deliver individualized, person-centered therapy plans aligned with client goals across NDIS, TAC, Aged Care, and Medicare frameworks.
• Prescribe and implement AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) systems where appropriate.
• Deliver evidence-based interventions for conditions including autism, developmental delays, stroke, traumatic brain injury, and complex neurological needs.
• Write clear, high-quality, and timely clinical reports, progress updates, and funding reviews.
• Collaborate deeply with families, carers, educators, and the broader allied health team to ensure holistic care.

What You Bring:

• A Tertiary qualification in Speech Pathology.
• Current Speech Pathology Australia (SPA) Certified Practising membership.
• Experience (or a strong, demonstrated interest) working across NDIS, Medicare, or complex trauma/rehabilitation frameworks.
• An absolute passion for clinical excellence and a desire to contribute to a collaborative learning environment.
• Strong organizational, communication, and time-management skills.
• A valid Australian driver’s license and access to a reliable vehicle for community visits.
