Senior Audiologist

Metro Melbourne based | Clinical autonomy | 9-day fortnight | NFP salary packaging | Purpose-built Collingwood clinic | $105k–$120k + super + salary packaging

If you're an experienced Audiologist looking for greater clinical autonomy, variety and purpose in your work, this is an opportunity to practise audiology differently.

At Expression Audiology, clinical judgement, independence and long-term client relationships come first. You'll work primarily from our modern, purpose-built Collingwood clinic, with flexibility to work across our other locations, and have access to a broad range of hearing technology without being tied to a single manufacturer.

Your caseload will include predominantly privately funded clients, as well as clients with complex hearing needs, tinnitus, assistive listening technology needs, those with NDIS funding, ear health support and other areas aligned with your clinical interests.

You'll also have the opportunity to mentor other clinicians and contribute to the development of our audiology service — while working within a not-for-profit organisation that has supported Deaf and hard of hearing Australians for more than 50 years.

This is a 0.8–1.0 FTE role, with flexibility in working arrangements for the right candidate.

Expression Australia's purpose is to empower Deaf and hard of hearing people to achieve better economic, cultural, social and civic participation in the community. Since 1884, we have been working with our community to co design services and market leading programs.

We are an iconic and progressive community organisation, and our people are driven by a passion to work in a bilingual, bicultural organisation that respects both Auslan and English equally.

You’re an experienced Audiologist who is passionate about delivering high-quality, individualised care and building trusted, long-term relationships with your clients. You’re confident working autonomously, bring strong clinical judgement and communication skills, and enjoy managing a varied caseload.

You value evidence-based practice, professional independence and continuous learning, and you’re comfortable sharing your knowledge and mentoring and developing junior clinicians. Most importantly, you’re looking for a role where you can use your experience, contribute ideas and make a meaningful difference to both your clients and the broader Deaf and hard of hearing community.
