Job description

Ready to lead, without giving up the flexibility you love?

Pperhaps you're a Senior Speech Pathologist ready to step into leadership. Or an experienced leader who misses having the time to genuinely support individual clinicians, rather than managing a large team.

At Transform Life, you'll lead a small team while maintaining a reduced caseload, with the freedom to organise your week around your life, your team and your clients.

We’re a growing national team of 130+ Allied Health and Behaviour Support professionals. We work remotely and in communities across Australia, but we’re far from disconnected.

A National Manager you'll genuinely want to work with

One of the biggest attractions of this role is who you’ll work alongside.
Our highly regarded National Leader is an experienced, approachable clinical leader who makes time for his people, shares his knowledge and genuinely invests in making their experience in the job better.

Whether you’re new to leadership or bringing years of experience, you’ll have someone to bounce ideas off, learn from and work through challenges with — without being micromanaged.

What you’ll do

• Lead, mentor and develop a small team of Speech Pathologists who may be local or interstate.
• Provide clinical guidance, case reviews and support with complex presentations.
• Maintain a reduced caseload (local face to face and telehealth) with scope to work across your clinical and age groups of interest.
• Support onboarding, performance and caseload management.
• Build team connection and contribute ideas as our Speech Pathology service grows.

Why Transform Life?

• Real flexibility: Work from home, manage your own diary and make room for personal commitments.
• Smarter ways of working: Our new industry-specific AI platform is a game changer for clinical admin, helping you spend less time on paperwork and more time on what matters.
• Clinical support: Dedicated admin, multidisciplinary collaboration and accessible leadership.
• Keep growing: Generous PD allowance, ongoing clinical training and leadership development.
• Have a voice: Your ideas matter, and decisions aren’t buried in layers of management.
• Be recognised: Competitive salary package and leadership bonus structure.

What you’ll bring

• Speech Pathology qualifications and SPA membership.
• Solid NDIS experience and strong clinical skills, ideally across the lifespan, to confidently guide and support your team.
• Leadership experience or the potential and genuine interest to develop others.
• Confidence working independently and supporting a remote team.
• Relevant screening checks (or willingness to obtain), unrestricted driver's licence, reliable vehicle, suitable home office and full Australian working rights.

Location: SE QLD, VIC or TAS preferred, complementing our existing Speech Pathology leaders in WA and NSW. Other locations considered.

You don't need a Team Leader title on your CV. If you’re an experienced Senior Speechie with the right approach to people, we’d love to hear from you.
