Now Hiring: School-Based Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) – Sarasota, FL

If you’re looking for meaningful school-based work in a place that feels like a vacation every day, this is your sign. Blazer Jobs is hiring a compassionate, skilled Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) to support students in the Sarasota area. This role offers a balance of autonomy and collaboration—and a chance to live and work in one of Florida’s most beautiful coastal communities.

Known for its gulf beaches, art culture, and laid-back charm, Sarasota is the perfect setting for those who want a fulfilling career and a sunny lifestyle. Whether you’re a local SLP or looking to relocate, we’d love to talk with you.


Position Details:

  • Position: Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP)

  • Setting: School-based (PreK–12 opportunities)

  • Location: Sarasota, FL

  • Start Date: 2025–2026 School Year

  • Schedule: Full-time, Monday through Friday

  • Pay: Starting at $47/hour, depending on experience and placement


Responsibilities Include:

  • Conducting speech-language evaluations and participating in eligibility determinations

  • Developing and managing Individualized Education Programs (IEPs)

  • Delivering direct therapy services and progress monitoring

  • Supporting students with articulation, language, fluency, voice, and AAC needs

  • Collaborating with teachers, parents, and multidisciplinary teams

  • Attending IEP meetings and contributing to the broader success of each student


The Perks of Contracting

Contracting offers a flexible and focused way to do the work you love—providing speech-language therapy—without being tied down by unnecessary red tape. We handle your contract details, onboarding, and support so you can focus on delivering high-quality care. With Blazer Jobs, your needs and voice matter, and our team is here to support your success every step of the way.


Who Thrives in This Role?

Contract school-based SLPs tend to do well when they:

  • Enjoy managing their own therapy schedule and caseload

  • Appreciate clear boundaries and support from a dedicated recruiter

  • Want to feel like a valued partner, not just a number

  • Are open to new school settings or returning to one they love

  • Are SLP-CFYs ready to begin their fellowship with clinical supervision provided


School Setting: Independence Meets Collaboration

One of the greatest parts of working in schools is the ability to work autonomously while still being surrounded by a team that cares deeply about the students. As the school-based SLP, you’ll build your own schedule, tailor therapy to your students, and partner with educators and parents to maximize student success. No two days are the same—and every day has the potential to make a lasting difference.


When Schools Hire

Hiring peaks in the summer, but SLP school jobs open up year-round. Whether you're looking ahead or available immediately, it’s always a great time to start a conversation. Openings continue into the fall and even mid-year, often due to changes in student needs or staffing.

  • Health, dental, and vision insurance options

  • 401(k) retirement savings with match
