Sydney Neuropsych is a neuropsychology clinic on Sydney's North Shore. This is a genuine opportunity to embed yourself early in a growing clinic; working alongside experienced neuropsychologists and building a meaningful practice within an environment that cares about its people and its clients, from assessment to ongoing care.

The position is for a neuropsychologist to complete neuropsychological assessments across a range of different groups (children, adults and older adults), dementia, neurodevelopmental and neurodiversity assessments.

The role is open to fully endorsed Clinical Neuropsychologists or Neuropsychology Registrars looking to complete supervised hours in a well established neuropsychology practice.

Experience will be highly regarded, but there are significant opportunities for supervision, professional development and training for the right candidate. We are looking for long-term clinicians who can see themselves working in a consistent and stable practice and growing into a senior clinician within the team for years to come.

For Registrars applying, we have structured the role to give you a genuine learning arc; from supervised in-session observation through to independently completing the assessment component of full neuropsychological evaluations, with a significant breadth of testing and experience.

•      Exposure to a diverse and genuinely interesting caseload: ADHD, Autism, acquired brain injury, SLD, neurological conditions like Dementia, capacity assessments and comprehensive cognitive assessments

•      (For Registrars applying) A Structured progression: beginning with in-session supervised observation, advancing to independently completing the assessment component (excluding intake and feedback) under supervision

•      Hands-on experience with Private, NDIS, and Medicare & DVA clients

•      Collaboration with a senior neuropsychologist on complex, multi-domain cases

•      Report writing mentorship and clinical documentation to high professional standards

•      Significant supervision and training opportunities and PD, including potential supervised formal hours for AHPRA clinical neuropsychology registrar for the right candidate

•      Direct access to and collaboration with our senior neuropsychologist, with access to highly experienced neuropsychologists in neurodiversity (cited in the DSM-5 for ADHD and a recommended referrer for Professor Tony Attwood for autism). Potential for supervision depending on the candidate’s experience. Plenty of group PD and a yearly budget for further training.

•      A structured, progressive learning pathway with real clinical responsibility at each stage

•      A genuinely varied and intellectually engaging caseload; far beyond a standard training context

•      Modern, well-appointed consulting rooms in Naremburn, a short walk from St Leonards train station and Crows Nest Metro, with potential parking onsite
