Looking for a role that fits your life—and still lets you use your clinical skills in a meaningful way?

We’re hiring an Industrial Ergonomics & Injury Prevention Specialist to support employees onsite in Ohio. This position offers a unique opportunity to step outside the traditional clinic setting and work directly with employees to improve safety, reduce injuries, and keep people performing at their best.

Full‑time

Who This Role Is Perfect For:

• Athletic Trainers, PTAs, OTAs, or clinicians looking for extra income or part‑time work
• Professionals seeking flexibility around family or personal commitments
• Clinicians ready to transition out of high‑burnout healthcare environments
• Individuals interested in breaking into ergonomics and injury prevention

What You’ll Be Doing:

You’ll be working face‑to‑face with employees in an industrial setting—coaching, educating, and intervening early to prevent injuries before they escalate.

Key Responsibilities:

• Providing onsite injury first aid and early symptom intervention
• Coaching employees on body mechanics, posture, and movement
• Conducting ergonomic assessments and job evaluations
• Supporting safety and EHS teams with injury prevention strategies
• Leading group trainings and presentations for employees and leadership
• Identifying risk factors for musculoskeletal injuries (MSDs)
• Creating and implementing stretching and conditioning programs
• Documenting visits and maintaining reports using web‑based systems

This is a high‑impact, boots‑on‑the‑ground role where your work directly improves employee health and workplace performance.

What We’re Looking For:

• Degree in Athletic Training, Occupational Health, PT/OT (Associate or Bachelor’s) or related field
• Strong communication skills and ability to engage with employees at all levels
• Self‑starter who is comfortable working independently onsite
• Passion for injury prevention and proactive care

Requirements:

• Valid driver’s license, insurance, and reliable transportation
• CPR certification (or ability to obtain before start)
• Proficiency in documentation and basic computer systems
• Ability to pass a drug screen and background check

What You’ll Get:

• Competitive compensation with bonus and commission opportunities
• Flexible work schedule that fits your lifestyle
• Medical, dental, and health insurance options
• Paid time off and holidays
• Continuing education reimbursement
• Paid ergonomics training and professional development
• Travel reimbursement + PPE stipend
