You will step into an established team of six Speech Pathologists working across a mixed-age caseload.

• Supporting performance and professional development plans
• Helping clinicians build confidence and recognise their strengths
• Providing additional support where personal or professional challenges are affecting work
• Keeping supervision focused, productive and purposeful
• Supporting team culture and communication
• Liaising closely with senior management
• Maintaining a mixed-age clinical caseload

The remainder of your week outside of billable hours is dedicated to leadership, supervision, administration and supporting the team.

What they are looking for
They are looking for a Team Leader who is clinically credible but equally strong with people.
Someone who is:

• Approachable and easy to speak with
• Clinically confident and able to guide others
• Strengths-based in their leadership style
• Comfortable supporting clinicians with different confidence levels
• Able to keep supervision constructive and on track
• Collaborative rather than hierarchical
• Focused on creating stability and maintaining a positive team culture
