The Company:
Ilant Health is a value-based healthcare provider focused on cardiometabolic obesity, a group of interconnected conditions that drive over $700 billion in annual U.S. healthcare expenses. We are dedicated to increasing access to treatment while reducing the total cost of care for employers and payers. We are not just a provider, we are a technology-enabled practice driven by analytics. Our mission is to "de-average" care, using proprietary algorithms to match Members with the right interventions at the right time, while establishing habits that support treatment success and sustained outcomes. By combining clinical rigor with a consumer-grade digital experience, we drive life-changing outcomes and measurable ROI.
We serve as the single, integrated front door for comprehensive care, delivering a full continuum of evidence-based solutions, spanning bariatric surgery, pharmacotherapy, and intensive behavioral therapy. Crucially, we personalize care for every Member through a dedicated multidisciplinary care team, empowered by our advanced digital platform. This ecosystem includes specialized tools for our providers and a fully accessible Member Portal (web and mobile) for our Members.
The Role:
Ilant Health is seeking a Director of Nutrition to lead and scale the nutrition component of our multidisciplinary obesity care program. This role will directly manage and develop a growing team of 20+ Registered Dietitians delivering evidence-based nutrition care across obesity medicine, behavior change, GLP-1
support, and bariatric pathways. The Director will work closely with medical, behavioral health, operations, and product leadership to ensure nutrition care is clinically rigorous, operationally scalable, and deeply integrated into the member experience. This is both a clinical leadership and systems-building role. The Director of Nutrition will help define:
● what high-quality obesity nutrition care looks like at scale
● how dietitians should interact with async tools and product experiences
● how to standardize care while preserving personalization
