Part Time Sport Dietitian

HIRING A SPORT DIETITIAN IN BC

We’re building a top tier team of Elite Dietitians who strive for excellence.

Elite Dietitians is a team of experienced and client-first private practice dietitians who support each other. 

We pay dietitian contractors fairly and clearly. Starting compensation is 60% ($105 CAD per hour appointment) and goes up 70% based on experience, hours and responsibilities. There are no hidden deductions, we pay the credit card fees etc.

We are flexible with our approach and results oriented. Does your client need the structure of a meal plan or a gentle habits approach? Problem-solve with each client to find the right approach for them. Every client is unique, so you use all your skills and tools.

Elite Dietitians have a lot of autonomy. Work from home, set your hours, pick your vacations, get coverage for your groups and use our Janeapp software to make it all happen. We are looking for a minimum of 8 hours per week with option for more hours.

We connect, learn, share and grow, together. We celebrate each other’s successes, share resources, take webinars together and create and evolve new programs together.

We take pride in empowering clients to optimize nutrition and reach their health, fitness and performance goals. We promote sustainable, practical nutrition that yields results.

Our clients are all ages from youth to seniors. Some of our clients are athletes and others do not exercise at all.

We cover all health conditions, occupations and lifestyles including first-responders, athletes, working parents, teens and everyone in between.

You will need at least 2 years experience in an outpatient setting working independently and are comfortable with a variety of chronic health conditions. Experience working with clients of all ages, athletes and first responders doing shift work is an asset.
