Position: Speech-Language Pathologist

Job type: Full-time


We are looking for a full-time Hanen SLP who has had at least two years of clinical experience working with families of young children with communication or language disorders.

Reporting to the Clinical Program Directors, this full-time SLP position involves both clinical and non-clinical responsibilities. These include offering Hanen Programs (More Than Words^® and/or It Takes Two to Talk^®), as well as working collaboratively with Program Directors, other SLPs and non-clinical colleagues on a variety of interesting projects and initiatives that help us support parents and professionals around the world.

Projects are varied and stimulating, involving tasks such as assisting with updating or revision of program resources and with the development of new products and resources. Ongoing support and training are provided, recognizing that this type of work may be new for many SLPs! Projects are typically undertaken in collaboration with another SLP.

This position involves working remotely unless the successful candidate lives in the GTA or close to Toronto. In that case, there could be some in-person meetings and intermittent attendance at the office.

For SLPs looking to further develop and broaden their clinical skills, the opportunity to carry a small clinical caseload (in addition to offering Hanen programs) is included if deemed to be beneficial to the candidate's professional growth.
