Hive Talent is partnering with a well-established, NDIS-registered provider of allied health and behaviour support services.

Its teams cover speech pathology, psychology, positive behaviour support, occupational therapy, physiotherapy and social work, delivered in homes, communities, and schools.

The organisation sits within a larger, diversified health and human services group.

It has a strong reputation, an award-winning workplace culture and a explicit purpose: helping people with disability live the lives they choose.

The opportunity:

The business is starting a critical phase focused on performance improvement, sustainable growth and operational excellence.

The strategic direction and operating model are already set. What’s needed now is a CEO who can execute at pace, embed accountability, improve customer outcomes and deliver sustainable growth.

You’ll report to the Group CEO and sit on the Group Executive Leadership Team. You’ll be fully accountable for the business’s commercial, operational, customer and people performance.

What you’ll deliver:

- Performance and execution: deliver revenue, EBIT, cash and growth targets, and execute the strategy and annual plan with clear priorities, ownership and operating rhythms
- Operational improvement: lift productivity, utilisation, workforce capacity, billing discipline and service consistency across a multi-site footprint
- People and culture: build and develop a high-performing leadership team with clear roles, decision rights and performance expectations, and strengthen engagement, capability and succession




- Growth and customer experience: drive customer acquisition, retention and referrals, improve participant outcomes and service continuity, and develop new services and partnerships backed by sound commercial cases
- Commercial leadership: own the P&L;, including budgeting and forecasting, and drive margin improvement and disciplined cost management through data-led decisions
- Quality and governance: maintain strong safeguarding, clinical governance, risk and compliance frameworks, and give the Group CEO and Board concise, decision-ready reporting
- Stakeholders: build trusted relationships with customers, referral partners, regulators, government and industry, and strengthen the organisation’s market profile

About you:

You’re an accomplished CEO, General Manager or senior executive who has led a complex, customer-centric, multi-site service organisation through turnaround, transformation, and growth.

You know that in a business like this, results depend on workforce performance and operational discipline.

You’ll bring:

- Proven executive leadership with full P&L; accountability
- A track record in turnaround, transformation and operational execution
- Strong people leadership, with clear accountability and effective change leadership
- Sharp commercial judgement and a data-led approach to decisions
- The ability to influence and build credibility with a wide range of stakeholders

Highly regarded but not essential:

- M&A;, acquisition or integration experience
