Full time Kinesiologist 

Campbell River, BC
Physio on the Run

Physio on the Run is intentionally designed around sustainable, real-world care. We care deeply about good clinical work, but we also believe meaningful care should not depend on burnout, chaos, or constant heroics.

Our team works across homes, communities, outreach settings, long-term care, and clinic environments throughout the North Island, supporting people through neurological, orthopedic, mobility, and functional rehabilitation.

We’re looking for a Kinesiologist who enjoys working closely with people, values thoughtful care, and wants to be part of a collaborative team that cares deeply about meaningful, sustainable rehabilitation.
​

About the Role

One day might involve helping a client regain mobility after surgery in their home. Another could involve gym-based rehabilitation on Quadra Island or working alongside physiotherapists in clinic at Alder Medical. Other days may include supporting outreach services in remote communities or helping neurological and orthopedic clients build confidence back into daily life.
Some clinicians enjoy variety and movement between environments. Others prefer more structure and consistency. We build sustainable roles around clinician strengths and interests while maintaining consistency for clients and the team.

What Matters Most in this Role

​

• Adaptable
• Thoughtful
• Comfortable working independently
• Reliable
• Confident in ability to ask questions and escalate concerns
• Enjoys dynamic environments
• Interested in long-term growth and development
• Motivated by meaningful work and strong client relationships

​

Schedule & Compensation

• 30 hours/week with opportunity to grow over time if desired
• Flexible caseload focus based on strengths and interests
• Wage: Starting wage typically ranges from $25–35/hour depending on experience and starting scope of role
• Compensation grows with sustained development, independence, reliability, and broader contribution over time
• Paid vacation and sick time

Most new graduates or emerging clinicians typically start toward the lower end of the range with mentorship, support, and a gradually developing caseload.
​
Higher compensation reflects increasing independence, outreach/community capability, ability to manage more complex rehabilitation environments, and broader contribution to the team over time.

Life on the North Island
​

Many of our team chose Vancouver Island because they wanted a different pace of life than larger urban centres can offer.

Living here means shorter commutes, strong community connection, and easy access to hiking, mountain biking, paddling, fishing, skiing, surfing, and everything else the Island is known for.
​
We believe meaningful rehabilitation work should be able to coexist with a healthy, sustainable life outside of work. Great care requires both empathy and boundaries — giving clinicians the space to rest, recharge, and continue bringing curiosity, creativity, and genuine care into their work over time. Strong systems and team support help protect that.
