Speech Pathologist

Articulate Speech Pathology is a growing private speech therapy provider based in Cardiff, Lake Macquarie. We pride ourselves on providing diverse and individualised speech pathology services to adults and children throughout the Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, and Maitland areas. Our services are offered both face-to-face and via teletherapy. We aim to provide face-to-face services in an environment most comfortable for our clients which means we are often traveling between people’s homes, schools, local parks and our clinic in Cardiff.

We are looking to add to our team of passionate and dedicated therapists. Our ideal candidate has at least 2 years clinical experience and is happy to work across a varied caseload, provide support to more junior staff and contribute to team meetings and team building exercises. Our team dynamic is a key part of who we are and our ideal candidate will fit in with our existing team culture to foster a fun and supportive work environment.

We believe in providing as much internal and external support and training as you need to develop in your career. We have weekly internal PD, team meetings and the option for additional external supervision if needed.

We believe in building a fun team environment, so that our staff enjoy coming to work, but we also believe in providing a flexible working environment, because work isn’t the most important thing in life. You need to be a team player, be happy to have a chat and grab a coffee in the down time, but also provide a top-notch service to your caseload without compromise.
