Speech Therapist

Brunswick, Australia
Mid Level
Posted 28 Oct 2026

Mediix is partnering with an established multidisciplinary private practice in Melbourne's northern suburbs to appoint a Speech Pathologist to their growing team. What sets this role apart: you choose the caseload that suits you. Whether you want to build a paediatric caseload, focus on adults, or work across both, the practice will shape the role around your clinical strengths and the areas you want to grow into.

This is a fully clinic-based position — no driving between schools or client homes, no community travel — with a warm, collegial team of Speech Pathologists, Occupational Therapists, Psychologists and allied health support staff working out of a modern, purpose-designed clinic.

You'll build your own caseload from the practice's steady referral base. Depending on your preference, that might look like:

Responsibilities

Paediatrics — early language delay, ASD, DLD, articulation and phonology, fluency, AAC, school-age literacy and social communication
Adults — acquired communication disorders, voice, fluency, cognitive-communication and dysphagia
Mixed — a genuine blend across ages, if variety is what you're after
Complete comprehensive assessments and formulate clear clinical impressions

Develop individualised, evidence-based therapy plans

Deliver 1:1 sessions in clinic, with group work where clinically indicated
Collaborate closely with the in-house MDT on shared clients
Partner with families, carers and support workers through coaching and education
Maintain clinical documentation and complete NDIS, Medicare and DVA reporting as required
Contribute to team case reviews, in-house PD and peer discussion

Requirements

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Speech Pathology

New graduates with strong placement experience are warmly encouraged to apply — structured new-grad support is in place
Experienced SPs seeking a stable, well-run practice equally welcome
Strong clinical reasoning, documentation and interpersonal skills
Working with Children Check (VIC) and NDIS Worker Screening

Benefits

Above-award remuneration, negotiable on experience

Generous CPD budget, paid study leave and in-house learning sessions
Structured clinical supervision — genuine mentoring for early-career SPs, and peer support for senior clinicians
A caseload built around your clinical interests, not simply handed to you
Fully clinic-based work — predictable hours, no travel time between clients
Real flexibility — 0.6–1.0 FTE, compressed weeks and school-hours arrangements all considered
Modern, well-resourced clinic with a full assessment and therapy library
Employee Assistance Program and a low-turnover, supportive team culture
