What we can provide you

• A base salary package from $91,500 to $126,500 (in. super) so you feel financially secure

• An extremely generous bonus package that kicks in at 50% billable (well below most organisations’ minimum KPI’s/targets). It works out at an additional ~ $90 for each hour over the target, so trust us, that can add up quickly.

• Flexible hours that you can tailor around your life and what’s important to you. Picture never having to submit a timesheet ever again.

• Flexible leave so you can take a day off anytime without using annual leave (in fact, you only need to use annual leave when you are away for more than 2 days in a fortnight)

• Laptop + Phone set up, with great, easy to use online systems that won’t make you want to break either of them

• Monthly whole team PD’s, individual discipline PD’s, and a love of external PD’s as well

• Supervision & support that is constant and available. No more trying to save up (and remember) all your questions for a weekly or fortnightly meeting

• Optional: Opportunity to attend our fortnightly team lunch, cooked by the bosses. Picture our whole team sitting down to a feast that could be three different curries served with rice + roti + pappadums, or perhaps three hearty winter soups served with homemade rosemary bread. And did we mention there are gluten free and vegan options at every meal?

• Most of all you’ll be part of a team that connects and enjoys each other’s company, in an environment where you feel supported to make an impact. Join us to find out why our staff retention is so high it’s “off the charts”

How we help you find your place @ Tandem

Starting any new job is exciting, but it can definitely leave you feeling a tad fatigued. Let’s face it, sometimes just remembering your passwords & learning where to find the toilets at a new place can be exhausting..

That’s why at Tandem we don’t just shove a caseload in your direction, we build it slowly at a pace that works well for you.

We allocate you a peer mentor to help you settle in, and for all those questions that continuously pop up in any new environment. Trust us, they’ve most likely all been asked before.

Our flexible approach means you never have to “look busy” at work. If your brain briefly shuts down in the afternoon you can head to the gym, do your grocery shopping, explore the town or take a walk by the river. We think it’s important that our staff manage their energy as much as their time, so if you don’t have a client session booked in you are free to do whatever helps you be at your best. No sideways glances from your co-workers as you head out the door, just trust & support to help you find what works for you.

How we help you love your job

At Tandem we focus on impact, not on KPI’s, targets or compliance techniques. In fact, we have no minimum KPI’s at all, and we want you to keep your focus on how you can make an impact in the lives of the people we support.

We also love to be creative in our approach to therapy. When we work with our clients we look for every opportunity to take their interests and embed them into our therapy.

Speaking of impact, we realise that as health professionals in Australia we are incredibly lucky. So we also run a social enterprise - Joey - that uses 100% of profits to support allied health professionals across south east asia, through scholarships, placements, mentoring and PD opportunities. Sound interesting? Well, you're welcome to be involved as much or as little as you like.

Our clients are our our why

The western side of Melbourne, and the regional areas beyond, have significantly less access to healthcare and disability services than most areas across metro Melbourne. This means that we work with a wide variety of clients, allowing us to tailor caseloads to the specific skills and interests of our team.

‍

What we need from you

• A desire to make an impact in the lives of our clients
• A love of learning and a care for people
• A willingness to embrace diversity, and to work in a culturally sensitive, neurodiversity affirming manner
• An interest in paediatrics
• A Certified Practicing Speech Pathologist with Speech Pathology Australia
• A willingness to undergo a Police Check and to attain a Working with Children Check
