Description

Language Connect is a small, dedicated team of Speech Pathologists who work in the Brisbane Bayside area. We encourage an inclusive and collaborative environment in which to work while allowing autonomy in caseloads and working hours. We offer a supportive, well-resourced clinic with regular supervision and mentoring.

We are seeking a Speech Pathologist to take over an existing caseload of 3 days within a special schooling environment. This opportunity is ideal for a therapist looking to build a consistent caseload that could be expanded rapidly to more days if desired. Hours are during school times and more hours at the clinic after school could also be added at the clinic base.

We welcome all applications from both new graduates and experienced clinicians
