Not Your Typical Physical Therapy Job.

Are you a physical therapist who loves working with active people, enjoys the gym environment, and wants the flexibility to build a schedule that works for you?

At Fit Club Physical Therapy & Sports Performance, we're looking for motivated, personable, and team-oriented Physical Therapists to join our growing Brooklyn team on a per diem or part-time basis.

Whether you're looking for additional clinical hours, a flexible schedule, or an opportunity to grow with an established sports physical therapy practice, we'd love to connect.

Our Williamsburg and Dumbo locations offer dynamic environments where rehabilitation, strength training, and sports performance come together.

We treat runners, lifters, recreational athletes, weekend warriors, and everyday New Yorkers who want to move better, get stronger, and return to doing what they love.

We believe great physical therapy goes beyond the treatment table.
