$90,000-$110,000 (depending on experience)

CHATS (Children's Health and Therapy Services) isn't your traditional paediatric therapy clinic.

We're known for unique, therapy-informed services and a pathways-based model that supports children, teens and young adults (6 months-25 years) to build real-world skills for participation, confidence and independence.
n
If you're a Speech Pathologist with at least 1 year of experience who wants work that's warm, practical, neuro-affirming - and genuinely enjoyable day-to-day - you'll fit right in.
n
We're a boutique, multidisciplinary children's therapy and health centre in Bundoora, Melbourne. We're growing, with exciting projects across **** and **** - and we're looking for a Speech Pathologist who wants to grow with us.
n
Why CHATS (Our Point Of Difference)
n
n
Neuro-affirming, strengths-based practice (evidence-based, family-centred, difference-not-deficit)
n
Multiple ways to build your career: 1:1 therapy, groups, school collaboration, program development, and optional
outreach/telehealth
pathways
n
Career pathways that keep your work fresh: opportunities to rotate into different CHATS services and programs over time, so you can keep learning, stay motivated, and build the career you actually want
n
Build long-term relationships with families: follow children and young people across their journey and see the real-world impact of your work as they move through CHATS pathways
n
Excellent retention (many team members 5+ years)
n
A team that communicates well and supports each other

n
n
A Unique Early Years Opportunity
n
We're also a registered Playgroup Victoria provider, running a weekly playgroup for children aged 18 months to 5 years - a great opportunity if you enjoy early years, play-based support, and family coaching.
