Mobile Health Technician
Bodyspec
Patient care technician job in Chicago, IL
Are you passionate about helping people achieve their health goals but tired of the typical grind or sales-based roles? As a Mobile Health Technician, you'll focus on what you love-one-on-one interaction and making a real difference-without the pressures of building a client base. You'll be at the heart of numerous health journeys, celebrating successes and offering support in a role that's as rewarding as it is dynamic.
First-year fully licensed techs in the greater Chicago area can expect to earn upwards of $49,700 in their first year at BodySpec.
You'll Love This Job If you have:
Customer Service: You work in a customer service and client-facing role and love one-on-one interaction but don't enjoy trying to build your own book of business and worrying about biz dev every month.
Passion for Health: You're a health enthusiast and believe that health is for everyone - that it's a privilege to help others reach their goals, to share in their successes, and comfort them through their struggles.
Grit: You're the type of person who doesn't mind getting up early to beat traffic so you can get somewhere on time. You're not intimidated by driving a van, and you're not afraid to get your hands dirty and change the oil.
Curiosity: You are energized by being in a new environment every day, seeing new sights and meeting new people.
Resourcefulness: When you see something broken, you don't wait for someone else to fix it, but rather propose solutions and become part of implementing them.
Many of our Mobile Health Technicians are former personal trainers, health coaches, fitness trainers, and nutritionists. Many have backgrounds in kinesiology, exercise science, nutrition, or other related fields.
However, if you're in a client-focused role today, and health and wellness is your passion but you've never had professional experience before, this is a great place to pursue your passion while making a difference.
What Will You Do?
Work in our storefronts or directly in the community, driving our mobile scan vans to community centers, gyms, workplaces, health fairs, clinics, and other locations.
Perform DEXA scans and get best-in-class training, including a week in Austin, TX, and fully covered DEXA technician licensing costs.
Take ownership of your events from setup to tear down, exemplifying excellence in service delivery and customer service - all while making a genuinely positive impact on dozens of people each day.

Assist with other duties as assigned by the Leadership Team.
Requirements

Each shift is 8 hours, but event start and end times typically vary between the hours of 7am - 12:00pm, depending on location. Earlier start times may be required to accommodate drive time to the location so that you are at the event at 7am and ready to accept clients. We try to keep event start times as consistent as possible, but there will be some variation.
Must be able to lift/carry up to 50 lbs.
Must have a valid driver's license and driving record in good standing.
Compensation:
First-year hourly-wage techs can expect to earn upwards of $49,680 annually, including bonuses and overtime.
Your base hourly rate starts at $21.00 an hour. All team members are eligible for overtime on an as-needed basis.
Full-time team members receive $500 per month in team bonuses if we hit our monthly team revenue and individual performance goals.

Team members are also eligible for annual bonuses which are a combination of cash and stock options.
As a full-time employee, you are guaranteed weekly pay equivalent to 30 hours of work, but can earn more by working more.
