Part-time, remote, and paying around $30,000 a year: that's the shape of this Nutritionist opening. The employer wants candidates to have completed at least a four-year degree in nutrition or dietetics and expects 18 months of relevant experience.
What You'd Be Doing
- Assess each client's dietary needs and current eating patterns
- Build personalized nutrition plans around those needs
- Provide ongoing guidance as clients work toward their health goals
- Educate clients on nutrition topics relevant to their specific situation
Say a client comes in managing early-stage kidney disease and needs a sodium and potassium plan that still fits around a job with unpredictable hours. Building something that's medically sound and actually livable for that person's week is most of what this job comes down to. Clients don't need a textbook; they need a plan they can follow on a Tuesday when they're exhausted.
Credentials That Matter
A registered dietitian credential is required in many jurisdictions for clinical nutrition work, so check what your state or country requires before applying if you're not already RD-certified. Strong client communication matters just as much as the technical nutrition knowledge, since a plan nobody follows doesn't help anyone.
Skills
- Nutrition assessment
- Dietary planning
- Registered dietitian credential, where the jurisdiction requires it
- Client communication
- Comfort using telehealth tools for remote sessions
Beyond the core list, experience with specific populations helps too: sports nutrition clients, clients managing diabetes, or people navigating eating-disorder recovery under supervision. None of that's required, but it tends to make an application stand out.
Pay and Perks
This role pays roughly $30,000 annually for part-time hours, in USD, fully remote. Naukri Mitra clients hiring part-time nutritionists generally build in flexible scheduling around client sessions, since fixed office hours don't make much sense for a role built on one-on-one appointments. Expect remote-work flexibility as standard, plus the option some employers offer to grow into more hours as your caseload builds.
The Part-Time Reality
Working part-time doesn't mean fewer standards; it means fewer hours. Client plans still need real thought behind them, follow-up sessions still need to happen on schedule, and documentation still has to hold up if a client's insurance or care team asks for records. Anyone weighing full-time nutritionist work against this kind of part-time remote nutritionist job should know the caseload is simply smaller, not the responsibility.
Apply
Send your resume, your RD credential status, and any specialty populations you've worked with. If you've used a particular telehealth platform before, say so; it saves time during onboarding. Reviews happen on a rolling basis rather than after a fixed deadline.
