Registered Dietitian - Remote (IL)

Kickoff partners with Registered Dietitians (RDNs/RDs) to help clients form healthier, life changing habits. We are looking for RDs who are interested in driving impact by combining nutrition and fitness coaching. ABOUT KICKOFF Kickoff is the first and only platform to integrate nutrition, fitness, and wellness coaching to drive superior health outcomes for clients. Our mission is to increase access to high-impact preventative healthcare, and we're looking for practitioners who want to be at the center of that transformation. Our Registered Dietitians deliver whole-person, preventative care, combining evidence-based nutrition guidance with personalized fitness programming and wellness habit building. Nutrition is at the core of all we do, yet we attract entirely different types of clients than other RD practices and engage them in even more impactful coaching that improves all aspects of their health. Our practitioners set their own hours, delivering client outcomes while maintaining flexible schedules. We’re focused on driving maximum health improvement for clients - it’s hard work but extremely rewarding. This is not a side hustle opportunity. This is a career. WHO THRIVES AT KICKOFF The practitioners who do their best work here are outcomes-first practitioners motivated by transformative client results. They see the integration of nutrition and fitness not as a luxury, but as a necessity. These individuals are eager to work within a seamless digital environment that handles the admin heavy lifting, so they can focus on what matters. They are constant learners who view feedback as a catalyst for better patient care and personal excellence. WHY KICKOFF Integrated Exercise & Nutrition Coaching We're the only platform offering fully integrated exercise and nutrition coaching. Drive measurably better outcomes for your clients and expand your own clinical skillset. Our platform includes AI-assisted fitness programming tools that make it straightforward to deliver personalized exercise plans, even if fitness isn't yet your primary area of expertise. And if you don’t already have a CPT certification, we’ll help you get one. Real Earning Potential Full-time coaches should expect to earn $94,000–$140,000 annually (with part-time coaches expecting proportional pay). This range is achievable for full-time coaches following a 3 to 5 month ramp period. We’re transparent about that, but the path is clear and your compensation grows with your performance and client panel. We handle the full insurance credentialing and billing process on your behalf, so you can start seeing clients without the administrative lift that typically comes with building a telehealth practice. We’re actively expanding our payer network, which means your accessible client pool grows over time. More payers, more covered clients, more opportunity to do the work that matters. We handle all client marketing and sourcing, and most clients have no out-of-pocket cost, which means fewer barriers to commitment and better long-term retention. Flexible Hours, Smarter Admin, More Time for Clients Our platform, enhanced by AI-assisted tools, reduces time spent on charting, care plan generation, and routine documentation. Billing, insurance credentialing, and scheduling are all handled. You focus on the clinical work, with entirely flexible hours that you set. A Community Built for High Performers Collaborate with a network of RDs and coaches who are serious about outcomes. Shape our product, programs, and clinical standards. This is a platform built with our practitioners, not just for them.

Own client accountability and results, driving measurable outcomes including weight management, chronic disease support, and behavior change, while maintaining strong long‑term retention.
