Why Join Our Paediatric Speech Pathology #DreamTeam?
At Community Therapy, we believe that every child deserves a voice and the ability to connect safely with the world around them.
Serving homes, schools, and preschools across Newcastle, Central Coast, Hunter Valley, and Port Stephens, our Paediatric Speech Pathologists work within a dynamic, interdisciplinary team to make communication and mealtime fun and achievable.
What You Will Do & Who You Will Empower
Your work as a Paediatric Speech Pathologist will touch every aspect of a child’s developmental growth. Working closely with families, early childhood educators, and NDIS support teams, your clinical focus will cover:
Speech Sound & Language Development: Assessing and treating articulation disorders, phonological delays, receptive/expressive language difficulties, and literacy skills.
Augmentative & Alternative Communication (AAC): Assessing, prescribing, and implementing high-tech and low-tech AAC tools to empower non-speaking or minimally speaking children.
Paediatric Feeding & Dysphagia: Supporting fussy eaters, sensory feeding challenges, and swallowing difficulties in close collaboration with our internal Paediatric Dietitians.
Social Communication & Neuroaffirming Care: Delivering strengths-based, neuroaffirming interventions that foster natural social connection and self-advocacy.
Everything You Need to Thrive in Your Career
We know that clinical excellence happens when clinicians feel backed, valued, and encouraged. Joining our Paediatric Speech Pathology team means receiving top-tier workplace support:
Structured Mentoring & PD: Access tailored paediatric shadowing, weekly team clinical meetings, an external PD budget, and regular 1:1 mentoring with a experienced clinician.
Clinic Hub & Mobile Equipment: Work from our bright Charlestown Paediatric Clinic with access to a company car (for full-time mobile roles), laptop, phone, and modern assessment tools.
Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Work directly under the same roof with Paediatric Physios, OTs, and Dietitians, making complex case conferences and joint sessions effortless.
Flexible Schedules & Team Spirit: Take advantage of flexible working options, an equal-opportunity culture, and regular social events with your allied health peers.

We are proud to have a strong equal opportunity culture at Community Therapy and we embrace the diversity of all our team members.
Our flexible working arrangements are reflective of the needs of each individual team member.
