At Cognivate, we believe the "right person" is more important than a specific office location. We are looking for a visionary Lead Neuropsychologist to join our core interdisciplinary team.

Clinical Excellence: Deliver specialist assessments and interventions focusing on cognitive, emotional, and behavioural rehabilitation in real-world settings (home, work, and community).
Collaborate: Work within a tight-knit interdisciplinary team.
Specialist Support: Utilise and develop trauma-focused techniques and vocational rehabilitation strategies to help clients return to the lives they love.
