Job description

Speech Pathologist - Paediatric Caseload Mediix Adelaide, SA, AU

If you're an Adelaide-based paediatric Speech Pathologist thinking about your next move, this is worth a read. An established Adelaide private practice is looking for a Speech Pathologist to join their paediatric team on a permanent basis — and they've built the kind of role local clinicians tend to stay in.

About the role:

Predominantly paediatric caseload, with room to include a small adult or adolescent mix if that interests you. The practice sees children across the developmental span — early language, school-age communication, literacy, articulation, social communication, feeding, and AAC where relevant — with referrals from paediatricians, GPs, schools and NDIS coordinators across the metro area.

• Blend of clinic-based sessions, school visits, in-home therapy and telehealth
• Realistic caseload set with your clinical lead — not driven by billable-hour KPI
• Full admin, scheduling and billing support so your day stays clinical
• Structured supervision (weekly for new grads and early-career clinicians; monthly-plus for experienced SPs)
• Access to established assessment tools, therapy resources and a shared clinical library
• Well-developed local MDT referrer network — paediatricians, OTs, psychologists, dietitians and schools you'll likely already know

What's on offer:

• Salary $80,000–$120,000 + super, benchmarked to experience (graduates through senior clinicians all considered)
• Laptop, phone, and reimbursed travel between sites
• Genuine flexibility — 4-day weeks, school-hours arrangements, and hybrid clinic/telehealth setups all on the table
• A clinical career pathway (senior, lead and specialty roles as the practice grows)
• Regular team case discussion, peer supervision and a real social calendar

Why this role, if you're already in Adelaide: The Adelaide paediatric SP market is small enough that most clinicians know most clinics by reputation. This one has a genuinely low turnover rate, a clinical lead who invests time in supervision rather than just billing hours, and admin infrastructure that means your day is clinical work — not chasing referrals, rebooking clients or wrestling with NDIS plan management. If you've been in a role where the workload has crept, the caseload has drifted from what you signed up for, or the supervision has quietly stopped happening, this is worth a conversation.

About you:

• AHPRA registration as a Speech Pathologist (CPSP welcome; new graduates supported)
• Genuine interest in paediatric work and family-centred practice
• Comfortable across assessment and intervention; interest in a specialty area (feeding, AAC, literacy, autism support) is a plus but not required
• A current DHS Working with Children Check (WWCC) for South Australia
• NDIS Worker Screening Check (or willingness to obtain)
