Ruby Oak Nutrition is a group practice of 11 non-diet, weight-inclusive registered dietitians providing nutrition counseling for eating disorders, disordered eating, diabetes, pediatrics, chronic health conditions, and relationship-with-food concerns.
We're based in Raleigh, North Carolina, and provide both virtual and in-person care. Our practice is grounded in Intuitive Eating and Health at Every Size® principles, and we're committed to compassionate, identity-affirming care that helps clients move away from diet culture and toward a more peaceful and sustainable relationship with food.
We're looking for an experienced eating disorder dietitian who loves working directly with clients and wants a part-time role that leaves room for the rest of their life.
This could be a particularly good fit if you've spent several years building your skills as an eating disorder RD and want to keep doing the clinical work you love without taking on a full-time schedule or moving into management.
It may also be a good fit if you've tried working for a large telehealth company and found that the flexibility came with some significant tradeoffs: being matched with clients who weren't a good fit for your expertise, spending sessions fielding weight-loss requests that conflicted with your approach to care, or working largely on your own without regular team meetings, case consultation, or meaningful clinical support.
At Ruby Oak, you get the flexibility of remote (or hybrid), part-time work without practicing in isolation.
You'll primarily work 1:1 with adolescent and adult clients with eating disorders and disordered eating. Depending on your interests and experience, your caseload may also include clients seeking support with intuitive eating, chronic disease management, sports nutrition, or other nutrition concerns from a non-diet, weight-inclusive perspective.
Because eating disorder care is a major part of our practice, you won't be expected to constantly explain or defend a weight-inclusive approach. You'll be working alongside dietitians who share that philosophy and clients who are seeking this type of care.
We're a small, collaborative practice, and we want part-time dietitians to feel like part of the team—not like clinicians who happen to share the same logo.
You'll have access to regular team meetings, case consultation, mentorship, and CEDS supervision. You'll also collaborate with therapists, physicians, and other members of clients' treatment teams when appropriate.
At the same time, we trust experienced dietitians to do what they do well. You'll have autonomy in your sessions and flexibility in shaping your schedule and caseload.
This is a remote position, and sessions can be conducted from home via telehealth. For dietitians who enjoy some in-person work, there is also the option to work from our Raleigh office or a satellite office elsewhere in North Carolina 1–2 days per week.
And if part-time is exactly what you want long-term, that's great. We're not hiring you with the expectation that you'll eventually need to work more. If your needs change, however, part-time RDs have the opportunity to transition to full-time roles with a larger caseload, additional compensation, and full-time benefits.
$48–$55 per hour for client-facing work , depending on experience.
Dietitians who choose to transition to a full-time role are also eligible for medical, dental, and vision insurance; PTO and paid holidays; a CEU stipend; and short-term disability insurance.
Ruby Oak Nutrition values dietitians with different backgrounds, identities, experiences, and perspectives. We recognize the value of lived experience alongside traditional education and professional training.
We do not discriminate on the basis of race, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability, pregnancy, genetic information, ethnicity, culture, or other protected characteristics.
