Job description

Job Description:

Work as a Speech-Language Pathologist supporting pediatric therapy and rehabilitation in Oakland, California—bringing your clinical experience to an acute-care focused setting with a strong pediatric emphasis. This travel contract offers a consistent schedule with 8-hour days, Monday through Friday, so you can plan your week around your work and your life outside of the clinic.

You’ll be responsible for pediatric speech-language therapy services across therapy and rehab needs, with an assignment that benefits from prior pediatric experience (acute care preferred). The ideal candidate holds CCC-SLP, has BLS, and brings at least 2 years of experience, including a minimum of 1 year in a hospital environment.

If you’ve worked with children across rehab settings—whether pediatric outpatient, pediatric rehab facilities, or PICU experience—this assignment is built for you. Expect meaningful clinical work and a pace that keeps the days active (and the caseload interesting) from start to finish.

Weather:

Expect mild, coastal-influenced days with comfortable temperatures and plenty of sunshine. Mornings can feel cooler, while afternoons are typically pleasant—perfect for getting outside between shifts.

Fun Things To Do:

• Take a day trip to San Francisco and explore the Golden Gate Bridge and waterfront
• Visit Muir Woods National Monument for towering redwoods (easy day outing)
• Spend an afternoon at Lake Merritt and enjoy the walking paths and viewpoints
• Explore Jack London Square for shops, food, and waterfront energy
• Catch a show or browse exhibits at the Oakland Museum of California
