The opportunity
Sensibly Sprouted is hiring a Junior Registered Dietitian Manager to build and lead a team of dietitians providing outpatient Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT). You'll play a central role in interviewing and selecting team members, coach their development, and shape how your team delivers care.
This is a developmental management role for dietitians ready to move into formal people leadership. Prior management experience is not required.
Internally, this position is called Junior Lead. You'll report to the Chief Dietetics Officer and have management authority from day one. The broader leadership team will support you as you handle increasingly complex team, financial, and operational decisions. Your focus is team leadership; you may provide patient care when needed, but the role has no fixed caseload.
What you'll do
- Take a lead role in interviewing, selecting, and onboarding dietitians as you build your team.
- Coach and develop team members, set expectations, give feedback, and address performance concerns.
- Progressively assume ownership of the team's profit and loss (P&L), including revenue, expenses, and profitability, while managing retention and productive capacity with leadership support. Use financial and performance data to guide decisions.
- Reinforce clinical, documentation, scheduling, and operational standards, partnering with Clinical Excellence on training needs.
- Manage team workflows and priorities, involving senior leadership when decisions require their input.
What you'll bring
- A Registered Dietitian (RD) or Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) credential.
- Applicable state licensure, or eligibility to obtain required licensure.
- Demonstrated ability to coach others, lead initiatives, and improve team performance. A prior manager title is not required.
- Sound judgment, clear communication, dependable follow-through, and comfort using performance data to guide decisions.
- Authorization to work in the United States without employer sponsorship.
Your growth
Junior Lead provides support and feedback as you develop the judgment and independence required for Lead. After at least four quarters, you may be evaluated for advancement based on demonstrated Lead-level capability, sustained performance, and organizational need. Advancement is not automatic. Upon promotion, your base pay moves into the Lead salary range.
Benefits
Eligible team members receive medical, dental, and vision coverage; employer healthcare contributions; a 401(k) with a 3% employer non-matching contribution; paid time off and holidays; and professional development support. Sensibly Sprouted also pays required professional liability insurance, state licensure fees, and CDR registration and renewal fees where applicable.
