NovoPsych is a leading psychometrics company building world-class psychological assessment tools used by mental health clinicians and services. We sit at the intersection of clinical practice, rigorous measurement science, and modern software. Now, we're moving into neuropsychological assessment.

You’ll join a high-calibre team of psychologists, PhDs, software developers, and clinical innovators who take research seriously — and ship it into real-world clinical workflows.

The opportunity

We’re hiring a Head of Neuropsychology to lead and accelerate NovoPsych’s neuropsychological assessment agenda: neuropsychological and performance testing, novel measurement approaches, and the translation of research into tools that materially improve assessment.

We believe the most valuable skill in this role isn’t simply technical ability — it’s the ability to ask better questions. You’ll be someone who can identify what matters, cut through noise, challenge conventional assumptions, and translate assessment paradigms into tools that create clinical impact.

What you’ll do

• Identify opportunities for neuropsychological assessments to be included in NovoPsych


• Develop and validate novel approaches to assessment, including behavioural tasks and AI-enabled methodologies.


• Lead NovoPsych’s neuropsychological program, shaping priorities, standards, and output quality.


• Translate research into clinically usable, high-impact tools.
• Collaborate with researchers and technical staff. Meet the team.
• Drive publication-quality work while balancing speed, pragmatism, and product relevance.
• Consider market opportunities to translate existing published research into clinical tools.

You’ll thrive here if you…

• Have outgrown or move to fast for traditional academic or clinical neuropsychology pathways and want your work to have global clinical impact.
• Have a demonstrated ability to master conventional neuropsychological standards and the courage to question them.
• Are comfortable with ambiguity, and can bring order to messy real-world data and problems.
• Think like a clincian, but act like a builder.

Selection criteria

• PhD in neuropsychology, psychometrics, or a related field.


• Registration as a neuropsychologist (or other strong clinical alignment)


• Board approved supervisor (Neuropsychology)

• five years clinical experience related to neuropsychological assessment.


• Strategic and big picture thinking


• Advanced computer skills, including demonstrated use of AI in research activities (e.g., workflows, analysis, methodology, prototyping).


• Tech first problem solving, with people first focus.

What we offer

• A world-class clinical platform with global reach.
• Wolrd class research team: https://novopsych.com/research-and-development/
• Work at the cutting edge of innovation in neuropsychological assessment and measurement.
• Competitive compensation commensurate with seniority and impact.
• Opportunity to lead and expand neuropsychology team
• Work-from-home flexibility and autonomy, with strong organisational support.
