Are you looking for the right clinic, not just another audiology job?

A Better Ear is an independent hearing clinic in Redlands City, and we are looking for an audiologist to join our small team.

We have robust and established patient demand and can offer either a full-time position or a four-day permanent part-time role. Our priority is finding the right person and shaping the opportunity around them.

This is primarily a clinical audiology role. You will have your own patients, manage an adult rehabilitation caseload and be trusted to exercise your professional judgement.

But we are deliberately looking for someone who wants a little more than an appointment book.

In a small clinic, good ideas matter. You will be encouraged to help develop new services, improve clinical procedures, work through difficult patient pathways with the team, workshop consultation and communication skills, improve AI scribe templates, research clinical questions or bring expertise that helps us develop a new area of care.

You will not be employed to manage the clinic or supervise other clinicians. We want an audiologist who enjoys being part of a capable small team and wants to contribute to it.

The clinical work

You should be confident with the core work of adult diagnostic and rehabilitation audiology, including:

- comprehensive hearing assessment, otoscopy and immittance

- speech in noise assessment

- hearing aid selection, fitting, programming and follow-up

- real ear measurement and verification

- rehabilitation counselling, shared decision-making and behaviour change support

- Hearing Services Program and DVA services

- troubleshooting and ongoing hearing aid care

- tinnitus assessment and management

- managing challenging patient conversations and recognising when clinical escalation is required

We also provide cerumen management. Experience is useful, but we can train the right person.

We are open to audiologists with at least one year of post-graduate clinical experience, as well as more experienced clinicians. What matters most is that you have developed a sound foundation in adult rehabilitation,



can work with appropriate independence and have the attitude and capacity to keep developing.

Good audiology is about more than the technology

We place considerable importance on counselling and the quality of the conversation clinicians have with patients.

You need to be able to understand what matters to someone, explore hesitation or uncertainty, explain your findings clearly, make a recommendation and help the patient reach a decision about what is in their best interests.

That includes being comfortable talking about treatment costs.

We do not use individual sales commissions, and recommendations must always be clinically appropriate and impartial. At the same time, we believe a good clinician should be comfortable helping an appropriate patient make a decision and act on it.

Experience with motivational interviewing, behaviour change or other person-centred approaches that help patients engage with hearing rehabilitation would be particularly valuable.

Who will enjoy working here?

We think the right person will be:

Engaged and collaborative. You want to contribute to the clinic around you, not simply complete your appointments and go home.

Warm and authentic. You relate naturally to patients and colleagues, and you have enough personality and sense of humour to enjoy working in a small team.

Confident without ego. You can make decisions, express an opinion and respectfully disagree. You can also say “I don’t know”, receive feedback and change your mind.

Commercially minded and clinically principled. You understand that excellent healthcare and a financially healthy independent clinic can and should coexist.

Curious and improvement oriented. You are interested in professional development, new ideas and making worthwhile improvements.

We welcome people who question things and bring ideas.



We also value people who take the time to understand how and why we work the way we do before deciding something should change.

What you will bring

You will need a recognised tertiary qualification in Audiology, current practising membership with Audiology Australia or an equivalent recognised professional body, current full-scope Hearing Services Program QP status, and at least one year of post-graduate clinical experience. Previous experience providing HSP services is required.

You should have a sound foundation in adult hearing rehabilitation, competence with hearing aid fitting, REMs and speech in noise assessment, good counselling and communication skills, and an interest in continuing to develop professionally.

Advanced rehabilitation counselling skills would be highly regarded. Tinnitus management, cochlear implant mapping, cerumen management, DVA services and clinical service development experience would also be valuable.

We do not expect every candidate to bring every additional skill. If you have a strong clinical foundation, relate well to patients and colleagues, and want to develop as part of a small independent clinic, we would still like to hear from you.

The role

This is a permanent position available either four days per week or full time, based at our clinic in the Redlands.

We have a well-established patient base and strong clinical demand, giving us the flexibility to consider either arrangement for the right person.

Salary will reflect experience and clinical capabilities.

Relocation assistance is available where a move is required to take up the position.

There is one clinic location, no routine travel between sites and no home visits.

Most of your week will be patient facing. Time for team collaboration, improvement work and worthwhile projects is built around the clinical needs of the practice and may vary depending on what we are working on.

If you are an audiologist who values excellent rehabilitation, professional independence, good conversations with patients and being genuinely involved in the clinic where you work, we would like to hear from you.
