Our "Why"

Recovery Station exists to empower people to live a quality life. We believe in creating the ideal work environment for you because when you are happy, healthy, well-skilled and fulfilled, you're in the best position to have a positive impact on everyone around you.  

Joining Recovery Station means aligning with a company that believes in empowering you and your future.

The Role

We predominantly see our clients in their homes, group homes, aged care facilities or in a public setting. One morning you may be helping someone trial new AAC as they visit their local cafe or visiting someone at home for a swallowing assessment or to work on a mealtime management plan.

You may see 3 or 4 clients one day, then the next you're working from home or having an office day to write reports, prepare resources, have supervision / training.

This role is ideal if you like to have genuine flexibility and control over how you structure your days - meaning your individuality is recognised + you don't miss family time or life after work.

Depending where you live, we tailor your caseload to service clients close to home. Your personalised admin support team will work with you to ensure you aren't zigzagging around Sydney inefficiently.  

Currently have capacity for one or two clinicians to see clients around either the Hills, North West, North Shore or around South-West Sydney.

Your role can be constructed as full-time or part-time and we have offices in Neutral Bay, Liverpool and Blacktown for you to use to either see clients or collab with your team.

If you are a Senior or currently Supervising and you would like to complement managing your own caseload with leadership responsibilities, we are happy to discuss this as we have a team of experienced clinicians and new grads who would love to welcome another knowledgeable, experienced leader.

From a professional development perspective:

• Your thorough Orientation will be supported by ongoing one on ones with your Supervisor to discuss goals personal to you via a CPD plan. For example do you want to learn about AAC or servicing Neuro clientsor receive more tailored leadership training?This is when you can chat about what you'd personally like to achieve
