Looking for a Speech Pathology role that gives you more flexibility without giving up the support of a wider clinical team? Newcastle region.

Salary:$75,000 - $120,000 + Super + LOTS OF FLEXIBILITY

Join an established multidisciplinary allied health team looking for another Speech Pathologist to join their growing team. The role currently combines telehealth, community and some clinic-based appointments, with plans to transition away from regular clinic work in the new year towards a predominantly telehealth and community-based model.

This makes it an excellent prospect for a Speech Pathologist wanting greater control over their working week, less time tied to a clinic and the ability to deliver therapy in a way that fits both clinicians and families.
The position is open to Speech Pathologists at different stages of their career, with an established clinical team around you for mentoring, collaboration and ongoing support.

Why You'll Love This Role:

- Genuine Flexibility: With a strong telehealth component and increasing focus on remote service delivery, you’ll have greater flexibility around how and where you complete your clinical work.
- School-Hours Friendly: The client base and appointment structure allow for hours that can work particularly well for someone wanting to keep their working day within or close to school hours.
- Growing Telehealth Focus: The service already delivers a significant amount of therapy via telehealth and plans to move away from regular clinic appointments in the new year, creating even greater flexibility.
- Manageable Client Numbers:



Generally see around 4–5 clients per day, rather than moving through a high-volume clinic schedule.
- Speech, Language & Literacy: Build a caseload predominantly around speech, receptive and expressive language and literacy rather than feeding presentations.
- Community Variety: Alongside telehealth, continue to work with clients within relevant community environments where this supports their goals.
- Support Without Being Clinic-Bound: Even as the role becomes more remote, you won’t be working in isolation. You’ll remain connected to an established multidisciplinary clinical team for support, case discussions and professional development.
- New Graduate Friendly: If you’re starting your career, you’ll have access to mentoring, reduced expectations while you build confidence and opportunities to learn from experienced allied health clinicians.
- Established Multidisciplinary Team: Work within a broader service encompassing Speech Pathology, Occupational Therapy, Psychology, Music Therapy and education services.
- Family-Centred Approach: Work collaboratively with children, parents and caregivers to develop practical strategies that can be carried over into everyday routines and environments.





What Your Week Could Look Like: Your week will initially include a combination of telehealth, community and clinic appointments.
As the service evolves, the position will transition further towards telehealth and community work, with regular clinic-based therapy expected to reduce significantly in the new year.

Days involve around 4–5 client appointments, giving you a manageable schedule while still allowing time for planning, documentation and collaboration with families and your clinical team.
The clinical focus sits much more heavily across speech, language and literacy.

About You: You’ll be a qualified Speech Pathologist with current SPA registration who enjoys working collaboratively with children and families.

You could be:

- A Speech Pathologist wanting to step away from a heavily clinic-based position
- An experienced clinician looking for greater autonomy and more telehealth in their week
- A parent or clinician wanting a role that can better accommodate school-hour commitments

More than anything, they’re looking for someone who communicates well, enjoys building relationships with families and is comfortable embracing a more flexible way of delivering Speech Pathology.

If you want the support and connection of an established allied health team without needing to spend five days a week in a clinic, this could be a great next step.
