Job Description
If you're an adult-focused Speech Pathologist, you already know the market skews heavily paediatric - and that finding a role built around the work you actually trained for can take longer than it should. This is one of those roles.
n
The work:
n
A caseload built around adult clinical practice - the specifics of setting and location depend on which of our current openings fits you best. Right now Mediix is briefed on adult-focused SP roles across:
n
n
Acute hospital (dysphagia, stroke, TBI, head and neck cancer, tracheostomy)
n
Sub-acute rehabilitation and stroke units
n
Community rehabilitation and outpatient
n
Aged care (RACF and in-home)
n
Progressive neurological conditions (MND, Parkinson's, dementia care)
n
Adult NDIS and disability
n
Voice, fluency and transgender voice
n
n
You tell us which of these you want more of and which you're happy to leave behind - we work from there.
n
Why clinicians talk to us about adult work:
n
n
Real caseload variety without being stretched across paeds you didn't sign up for
n
Clinical leads who understand adult acute and rehab (not managers who default to paediatric assumptions)
n




Access to instrumental assessment (VFSS, FEES) in the settings that offer it - and we'll tell you honestly which ones don't
n
Time built in for MDT participation, family education, and the discharge planning work that adult roles actually require
n
Genuine seniority pathways - advanced clinician, team lead, discipline lead
n
n
What's on offer:
n
n
Permanent salaries $80,000-$120,000 + super (graduate through senior/advanced)
n
Part time, full-time, casual and contract shapes all in play
n
Public health, private practice, aged care and NDIS providers on our desk
n
n
About you:
n
n
AHPRA registration as a Speech Pathologist
n
Australian work rights
n
Adult clinical experience OR a genuine intention to work adult-only from here
n
Any experience level - graduates who've specifically trained toward adult work, mid-career clinicians looking for the right next step, and senior clinicians ready for a lead role are all on our desk
n
