[Hiring] Psychologist @Spectrum.Life

Role Description

Some of the most valuable work in health isn't therapy. It's the handful of well-designed hours that help someone living with a chronic illness or a mental health condition get back to the life they want, and the clinical judgement to recognise when they need something more.

Our ANZ Connected Care Programs deliver insurer-funded mental health and chronic disease support to people right across Australia. We're growing, and we're bringing health coaching in house.

Responsibilities:

• Deliver structured, time-limited health coaching by video and telephone across our mental health and chronic disease programs.
• Complete baseline and completion clinical assessments, screen for risk, and escalate confidently when a participant needs more.
• Work with people managing depression, anxiety, cardiac and metabolic conditions, persistent pain, and the psychological weight of long-term illness.
• Write end-of-program reports for referrers and treating teams that are clear and useful.
• Contribute to a genuine multidisciplinary team and to how these programs are designed as they scale.

Qualifications

• You hold general registration as a psychologist with AHPRA, with a Master's or Doctorate in clinical, counselling or health psychology.
• You have at least five years post-full-registration clinical experience, including coaching.
• You have genuinely practised health coaching under a recognised coaching model — not therapy with a coaching label.
• You understand how physical illness and mental health shape each other.
• You're excellent remotely, organised on paper, and generous in a team.
• You are living in Australia with the right to work here.

Requirements

• An ICF credential or equivalent coaching psychology qualification (desirable).
• Experience supporting people whose physical health concerns affect their wellbeing, including chronic disease (desirable).
• Five or more years in psycho-oncology, which opens up work in our Cancer Support stream (desirable).

Benefits

• A strong multidisciplinary model. You’ll work alongside an experienced team of nurses, dietitians and exercise physiologists with a wide range of skills and areas of practice.
• Regular MDT meetings, case reviews and internal peer supervision — resourced inside your paid hours, not on top of them.
• Fully remote, anywhere in Australia, with flexibility to schedule your hours between 9.00 a.m. and 6.00 p.m.
• Admin support, so your time goes to participants.
• A digital health and AI-enabled business, with technology built to make good clinical work easier.
• Technology equipment provided and role-specific professional indemnity coverage.
• 24/7 EAP and a full suite of health and wellbeing supports.
• Real influence over how these programs develop.
