WG Nutrition Counselor

Medi-Weightloss•Winter Garden, FL

20h•$18•Onsite

About The Position

Medi-Weightloss® is a physician-supervised weight loss program built on five keys to wellness: nutrition, fitness, medicine, education, and motivation. Since 2005, our providers and coaches have helped tens of thousands of patients lose weight and keep it off. We’re hiring a Nutrition Counselor for our Winter Garden clinic. This is a hands-on, patient-facing role for a true “people person” who lights up when someone hits a goal. You’ll see the same patients week after week, learn their stories, and be the person who keeps them going when the scale gets stubborn. No medical background? That’s okay. If you have the heart and the work ethic, we’ll train you on medical assisting skills — vitals, injections, ECG, phlebotomy, and metabolic testing. If you’re already an MA, even better.

Requirements

A genuine passion for helping people get healthy — this is the non-negotiable
Solid working knowledge of nutrition and exercise fundamentals, and the ability to explain them in plain language
Comfort and confidence on the phone — you’re not afraid to pick it up and call a patient
The ability to thrive in a fast-paced clinic: back-to-back appointments, shifting priorities, multitasking without dropping the ball
Strong communication skills, warmth, and professionalism with every patient
Basic computer skills and comfort learning an EMR system
Dependability — patients count on you being there
Availability across our full schedule, including 6:00 AM arrival, two evenings a week until 7:00 PM, and Saturday mornings
Willingness to be cross-trained on medical assisting skills, including giving injections and drawing blood
High school diploma or equivalent
Willingness to complete a background check in accordance with applicable laws

Responsibilities

Coach patients weekly in one-on-one consultations on nutrition, exercise, and behavior change — under the supervision of our physician and clinical team
