Registered Dietitian (RD/RDN)
Kickoff is the only telehealth platform integrating nutrition, fitness, and wellness coaching - covered by insurance. We’re hiring RDs who want a real career, not a side hustle: full-time earning potential of $94K–$140K/year, a wait list of clients, sponsoring Certified Personal Training (CPT) certifications, and the option for W-2 employment with health insurance.
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.
Why Kickoff
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.
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, working from anywhere.
The option for W-2 employment + health insurance.
You start as a part time 1099 contractor but can transition to W2 with health insurance, dental and vision, and PTO within your first 2 months if you would like. Coaches who consistently sustain 20+ client-facing hours per week and meet our performance bar become eligible for W-2 employment with employer-subsidized health insurance. Prefer to stay 1099? That’s fine too.
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 and cover the full cost.
Insurance, Billing & Client Access
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.
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.
