com . The Opportunity We’re building something new for New York City’s independent drivers — the people who keep the city moving but are often left out of traditional healthcare systems. Together with the Independent Drivers Guild and the Workers Benefit Fund (WBF) , we launched the Worker Healthy Living Program (WHLP) — a lifestyle medicine–informed program designed to help drivers live healthier, longer lives through food, movement, sleep, stress management, and community.

We’re looking for a Registered Dietitian (RD) who believes nutrition is not about restriction or perfection — but about empowerment, cultural relevance, and sustainable change. This role is for a dietitian who wants to move beyond one-off counseling sessions and instead help design, deliver, and scale a relationship-based, group-oriented nutrition model for an underserved workforce. This isn’t a traditional outpatient dietitian role.

You’ll be part of a small, interdisciplinary care team — including physicians, advanced practice clinicians, a health coach, social worker, and medical assistant — working across in-person, virtual, and community-based settings. You’ll lead nutrition-focused group visits, support six-month lifestyle medicine programs, and work closely with clinicians to integrate nutrition into chronic disease prevention and management. Beyond direct care, you’ll help shape how nutrition shows up in the model itself — from curriculum and educational materials to workflows, patient engagement strategies, and digital tools.

You’ll partner with Akido’s AI-powered platform to make nutrition care more accessible and personalized, while keeping the human connection front and center. *]:pointer-events-auto scroll-mt-[calc(var(--header-height)+min(200px,max(70px,20svh)))]" data-turn-id="request-WEB:ac01e0e0-93a0-46c6-a29a-2e529c58de63-1" data-testid="conversation-turn-4" data-scroll-anchor="true" data-turn="assistant"> This is a zero-to-one opportunity . You’ll be joining early, with real ownership over how the program is built and grown — from how nutrition care is delivered to how the model scales across New York City.

We’re looking for someone who’s energized by ambiguity, comfortable experimenting, and motivated to help turn a promising pilot into a sustainable, community-centered model. WHLP is grounded in evidence and designed to prevent and manage chronic conditions such as obesity, pre-diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia, while also addressing the real-life barriers that shape health — including stress, isolation, financial strain, and work-related challenges. If you’re passionate about behavior change, community health, and building trust with populations that have been historically underserved — this is your opportunity to help reimagine what registered dietitian–led care looks like in primary care from the ground up.
