Position Description
We are seeking a highly skilled Registered Dietitian who is passionate about helping clients make sustainable changes through personalized, evidence-based nutrition care.
This is a fully remote, 1099 contractor role. Providers manage their own schedules and caseloads, while we support with patient acquisition, billing, and administrative operations.
- This role is a strong fit for dietitians who:

- Are comfortable working independently in a virtual setting
- Value flexibility in their schedule
What You'll Do
- Provide virtual, one-on-one nutrition counseling grounded in evidence-based care
- Conduct comprehensive nutrition assessments and develop personalized nutrition plans aligned with client goals
Support clients across common focus areas such as meal planning, navigating eating out and travel, lab interpretation, and supplementation guidance
Guide clients through ongoing goal-setting using a structured framework designed to support sustainable behavior change
- Build strong, supportive relationships that encourage consistency and long-term engagement
- Maintain clear, timely documentation and follow-ups
Manage Your Own Schedule and Availability
You’ll have the opportunity to build a growing caseload and support clients over time, with many providers developing a steady panel of ongoing clients.

- Experience in an outpatient or counseling setting
- Strong clinical foundation in medical nutrition therapy and evidence-based care

- Empathetic, client-centered approach that helps individuals feel heard, supported, and motivated
- Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and ability to work independently in a virtual setting
- Professional, collaborative, and growth-oriented mindset
Nice to Have
- Experience supporting clients longitudinally (ongoing care vs. one-time sessions)
- Experience with telehealth
- Interest in building a steady, long-term client panel
What We Offer
- A steady flow of clients aligned with your areas of expertise, supported by our marketing and referral efforts
- Competitive, session-based compensation
- Fully remote, flexible work—you set your schedule in a way that fits your lifestyle
- Reduced time spent on insurance, billing, and administrative tasks so you can focus on patient care
- Licensure fee reimbursement for select states to support expansion opportunities
