Registered Dietitian Jobs

Where dietitians work with us

• Long-term care homes — menu and therapeutic diet review, weight-loss and nutrition risk assessment, dysphagia and texture-modified diets, enteral feeding.
• Retirement residences — nutrition screening, diet planning and food service consultation.
• Community and home-based programs — nutrition support for people managing diabetes, renal disease, cancer treatment or unintentional weight loss at home.
• Clinics and specialty programs — diabetes education, bariatric, renal and paediatric nutrition.
• Group homes and supported living — diet planning for adults with complex medical or swallowing needs.

What we need from you

• Current registration with the College of Dietitians of Ontario. “Registered Dietitian” and “RD” are protected titles and your certificate has to be current to practise.
• Effective spoken and written English.
• Canadian criminal record clearance, including vulnerable sector screening.
• Medical clearance.
• Experience in the setting you want to be placed in — tell us which one.

Covering a dietitian leave is a real job, not a gap-filler

Long-term care and retirement homes need registered dietitian input for menu planning, therapeutic diets, dysphagia management and nutrition risk review. When the home’s dietitian goes on leave, none of that work pauses.

So the assignments we place are usually blocks with a defined start and end, not scattered days. That is better for you — you can actually carry a caseload, finish assessments you started, and hand over properly — and better for the residents.

If a client asks us for a couple of loose days a month, we will tell them what that does and does not buy them.

What you are entitled to, and what we are required to tell you

Worth knowing before you apply anywhere, not only here.

• You are an employee, not a contractor. Payroll deductions, WSIB coverage, EI and CPP contributions, and Employment Standards Act entitlements including vacation and public holiday pay.
• You never pay us a fee. Our fees are paid by the employer or the client. If any agency asks you for money to be placed, walk away.
• Postings must state expected pay. Since 1 January 2026, publicly advertised job postings in Ontario must include the expected compensation or a range, must say whether the posting is for an existing vacancy, and must disclose if artificial intelligence is used to screen applicants.
• Canadian experience cannot be required. Ontario prohibits Canadian experience requirements in publicly advertised job postings and their application forms.
• You get an answer after an interview. Employers must tell interviewed applicants whether a hiring decision was made, within 45 days of the last interview.
