About the Role:
As a Speech Therapist at DCC, you’ll play a vital role in delivering evidence-based, participant-centred therapy across a diverse and dynamic clientele. Whether working with children, adolescents, or adults within clinics, schools, homes, or via telehealth, you’ll support NDIS participants and community members to unlock their communication potential.

Day-to-day will include:
- Provide advanced assessment and therapy to clients with complex communication and neurological needs.
- Handle diverse cases for children and adults with neurological, sensory, and physical conditions.
- Conduct assessments (formal/informal), set therapy goals, and develop individualised intervention plans.
- Trial and recommend augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices and develop supportive resources for clients and families.
- Work closely with community groups, families, and multidisciplinary teams to support client goals and service quality.
- Complete clinical documentation, reports for Medicare/NDIS, and maintain patient records using Cliniko.
- Contribute to team growth, provide feedback, engage in supervision, and support service improvements.
- Provide training to carers, educators, and families, and participate in outreach such as workshops and educational visits.
- Engage in service development, project implementation, productivity monitoring, and other delegated tasks.
You’ll thrive in a collaborative, multidisciplinary environment alongside Psychologists, Occupational Therapists, and Therapy Assistants, all driven to deliver holistic, outcomes-focused care.
What's on Offer:
- Competitive remuneration of $90k - $115k per annum based on experience, plus superannuation, plus $2500 professional development budget to support you in your continued growth in your career.
