Speech Pathologist – Opportunity to work in the Prison System, and travel to the Pilbara and Kimberly.

Are you a passionate Speech Pathologist seeking a rewarding career where you can truly make a difference? Inspired Speech Pathology is a respected, female-led private practice committed to providing culturally safe and impactful services to Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal NDIS participants across WA, including the Pilbara, Kimberly and Perth metro areas. We also work across all West Australian Prisons, supporting people within the forensic justice system. We are looking for an enthusiastic and experienced SLP to join our dedicated team and help us empower individuals to achieve their communication and swallowing goals. Our office is based in Welshpool, Perth.

Imagine:

  • Making a tangible impact: Work alongside First Nations community members and individuals within the forensic justice system, advocating for improved health outcomes and directly contributing to positive change. Help individuals with diverse needs (Psychosocial, TBI, FASD, Autism) unlock their full potential.
  • A supportive and flexible environment: Enjoy a truly supportive, close-knit team environment where your well-being is valued. We prioritize clinician work-life balance with a manageable 5-hour KPI billable day, flexible work hours, and generous leave. Our dedicated admin team handles invoicing, note entry, proofreading, and more, so you can focus on what matters most: your clients.
  • Professional growth and development: Enhance your skills with specialized training in forensic service delivery and culturally safe practices. We invest in your growth and offer opportunities to develop rewarding, long-term relationships with clients and stakeholders. Gain experience in rural and remote locations (fly-in-fly-out opportunities available with full days off time in lieu) and build highly sought-after specialist skills.
  • A unique and rewarding career path: Be part of an inspiring community, build your own caseload, and contribute to a positive, female-led practice. Experience the profound satisfaction of empowering individuals to communicate effectively and achieve their goals.

As a Speech Pathologist at Inspired Speech Pathology, you will:

  • Provide culturally safe and appropriate speech pathology services to Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal clients.
  • Work with diverse client populations, including those with ASD, FASD, Executive Function Disorders, and Cognitive Communication Disorders.
  • Collaborate with a supportive team while enjoying autonomy in your role.
  • Have the opportunity to work in the Perth metro area, the Pilbara (Port Hedland, Broome, Derby), and within prisons across WA.

What We Offer:

  • Competitive Salary: $90,000 starting salary + monthly kilometre reimbursement.
  • Comprehensive Benefits: Laptop/mobile phone, 10 days personal leave, 4 weeks annual leave.
  • Supportive Environment: Weekly supervision, dedicated admin support, and a positive team culture.
