It's a full-time, day-shift position with no overnight shifts, based in Ithaca, in the heart of the Finger Lakes.

Why This Opportunity Is Worth a Look

Compensation: $70,000-$100,000 base salary, based on experience, plus additional pay for relevant certifications.

Schedule: Full-time, day shift only — no overnights.

Setting: A clinic-based role within a premier health organization, collaborating with a supportive, multidisciplinary physical therapy team.

Relocation: Fully paid relocation assistance for candidates moving to the area.

Benefits: Medical, dental, and vision insurance; generous PTO and holidays; a retirement plan with employer contribution; tuition assistance and continuing education support; and employee wellness programs.

Location: Ithaca sits in the Finger Lakes region, home to Cornell University and Ithaca College, with lake and waterfall scenery, hiking trails, and a well-regarded arts and dining scene.

• Collaborating with a multidisciplinary care team on comprehensive, patient-centered treatment
