Functional Nutrition Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Rethink Nutrition has moved to our new Manhattan location at 720 Poyntz Avenue!

Position: Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN)
Location: Manhattan, Kansas (Hybrid: In-Office + Remote)
Schedule: Part-Time or Full-Time
Compensation: ~$68,900 annually for caseload of 25 clients/wk (2025 average: $53 per billable hour)

Rethink Nutrition is hiring a Registered Dietitian (RD/RDN) for a hybrid outpatient role in Manhattan, KS with an established referral base and strong administrative support.

This role begins with a ramp‑up period as your caseload builds, with most clinicians reaching 20+ weekly clients within approximately 3–6 months depending on availability and scheduling preferences.

A typical full‑time caseload is 20–30 clients per week. For example, a clinician seeing 25 clients per week averages approximately $68,900 annually based on current reimbursement rates.

We are a well‑established private practice specializing in outpatient Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) and functional nutrition care. Our services include gut health and GI disorders, diabetes and metabolic health, weight concerns, hormone and women’s health, general outpatient nutrition counseling, and performance nutrition.

We emphasize root‑cause functional nutrition, behavior change, and collaboration, allowing clinicians to go beyond standard MNT protocols. We also value clinicians who bring unique areas of interest or specialization, such as women’s health, pediatric nutrition, or other niche expertise.

Rethink Nutrition is a dynamic and well‑established private practice based in Manhattan, KS, dedicated to providing personalized, functional nutrition care. Our approach focuses on identifying root causes while supporting sustainable behavior change and whole‑person health.

We office alongside the dietitians and mental health professionals of Unbound Recovery, LLC, an eating disorder clinic in Manhattan, creating a collaborative, interdisciplinary environment. Our office is inside the beautiful, historic Kimball House, creating a warm and welcoming environment for our clients and team alike.

Many of our clinicians transition from hospital or high‑volume telehealth roles and value the ability to provide longer sessions, deeper client relationships, and more individualized care.

We are seeking a compassionate and motivated Registered Dietitian to join our team in a hybrid role, including a minimum of 10 in‑office hours per week.

This position offers new hires the opportunity to experience the most meaningful parts of private practice—building long‑term relationships with clients, practicing individualized care, and growing professionally—without the administrative burden of running a business. Our established referral network, admin‑led scheduling, and billing infrastructure allow our dietitians to focus on what they do best: supporting clients in achieving lasting change. Because these systems are already in place, clinicians are able to build a consistent caseload more quickly while still benefiting from the autonomy, flexibility, and depth of care that make private practice so rewarding.

• Provide one‑on‑one nutrition counseling focused on long‑term behavior change
• Deliver a high‑quality client experience and build strong therapeutic relationships
• Collaborate with the team to support client retention and continuity of care
• Maintain accurate and timely documentation and billing‑related tasks
• Develop community relationships and referral partnerships
• Engage in ongoing professional development

This role uses a percentage‑of‑receipts compensation model designed to reward growth and efficiency.

• Clinicians averaged $53 per billable hour in 2025
• Most clinicians reach 20+ clients/week within approximately 3–6 months
• Typical full‑time caseload (20–30 clients/week)
• Example: 25 clients/week ≈ $68,900 annually

During ramp‑up, clinicians benefit from consistent referrals, scheduling support, and mentorship in building and maintaining a full caseload.

Full‑time clinicians are eligible for paid time off, continuing education support, and health, dental, vision, and disability insurance. Malpractice insurance is provided to all clinicians.

• Minimum of 10 in‑office hours per week
• Telehealth and remote charting flexibility
• Self‑determined schedule, including daytime or evening options
• Ability to structure your schedule around personal or family needs

• Registered Dietitian (RD or RDN)
• Licensed in Kansas (or eligible)
• Reside in or near Manhattan, Kansas
• Experience in outpatient counseling preferred
• Strong communication and documentation skills

New graduates are welcome to apply with support and mentorship provided.

• Established referral base from day one
• Administrative and scheduling support
• Longer, relationship‑based sessions (not high‑volume care)
• Flexibility with structure and support
• Opportunity to specialize and grow a niche
• Collaborative environment with mental health professionals
