[Hiring] Certified Ergonomist @National Telemed Co.

Role Description

Are you a credentialed ergonomics professional who thrives on variety, autonomy, and measurable impact? We're looking for an experienced Certified Ergonomist to join our growing network of independent contractors — bringing evidence-based ergonomic expertise to a diverse portfolio of clients across office, industrial, and hybrid work settings.

This is not a 9-to-5. It's a flexible, high-impact contracting engagement designed for self-starters who want to own their schedule, expand their client base, and get paid competitively for specialized expertise. You'll conduct both on-site and remote assessments, deliver actionable recommendations, and help real people work more safely and comfortably every day.

Qualifications

• CPE (Certified Professional Ergonomist) or CIE (Certified Industrial Ergonomist) — required
• Strong written communication skills — ability to produce clear, client-ready reports independently
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Ergonomics, Human Factors, Kinesiology, OT, AT, or related field
• Comfortable working autonomously and managing multiple client engagements simultaneously
• Minimum 3 years conducting ergonomic assessments (office and/or industrial settings)
• Familiarity with OSHA standards and occupational health and safety regulations
• Proficiency in ergonomic evaluation tools and assessment methodologies (RULA, REBA, NIOSH Lift Equation, etc.)
• Ability and willingness to travel to client sites (estimated 25–50% of engagements)

Requirements

• Conduct comprehensive ergonomic evaluations across office, industrial, clinical, and hybrid work environments — both in person and via digital platforms.
• Deliver detailed, professionally written assessment reports with clear findings, risk ratings, and prioritized recommendations tailored to each client.
• Perform asynchronous remote evaluations using video submissions, self-report tools, and digital assessment platforms, providing actionable guidance without requiring on-site presence.
• Identify musculoskeletal risk factors and design practical, cost-effective interventions — from workstation adjustments to process redesign.
• Develop and deliver ergonomics training sessions, toolbox talks, and educational materials for employees, supervisors, and EHS teams.
• Collaborate with client-side safety officers, HR professionals, occupational health specialists, and facilities teams to ensure recommendations are implemented effectively.
• Maintain accurate, organized assessment records and documentation in compliance with applicable OSHA and regulatory standards.
• Support follow-up evaluations to measure the effectiveness of implemented ergonomic controls and document outcomes.
• Ability to deliver a professional deliverable report to company and client.

Benefits

• Competitive compensation based on per-assessment and project-based rates — commensurate with your certifications and experience (estimated ~$30-50/hr)
• Fully flexible scheduling — you set your availability and accept engagements that fit your calendar
• Travel reimbursement for all approved on-site visits (mileage, airfare, lodging where applicable)
• Diverse client portfolio — corporate offices, manufacturing facilities, healthcare settings, and remote-first teams
• Ongoing pipeline of work — no cold-calling required; we bring the clients, you deliver the expertise
• Support for continuing education, certification renewal credits, and professional development
