Vacancy
Nurse, Obesity Care
- From 16 hours a week
- Fully remote
- Flexible hours
Would you like to guide people through medical weight loss as a nurse? Are you interested in lifestyle, nutrition and health, and would you enjoy working at a young, fast-growing organisation where you get plenty of freedom and responsibility?
Then we would love to meet you!
At Lean Clinic we guide people with overweight and obesity in losing weight and keeping a healthy weight. We combine medication with medical guidance and an extensive online lifestyle programme.
Personal attention matters to us. We don't just want to answer questions, we also want to stay actively involved in our members' progress. That is why we are looking for a nurse to strengthen our care team.
What will you do?
As a nurse you are an important point of contact for our members. You guide them during their treatment and help with medical and lifestyle questions.
Contact mainly takes place through the chat on our own platform and in our app. You work closely with our doctors and lifestyle coach.
Your work includes, among other things:
- Answering questions: You help members with questions about their treatment, medication, possible side effects, nutrition, exercise and lifestyle.
- Following progress: You review weekly check-ins, spot points of attention and take action where needed.
- Proactive guidance: You also reach out to members yourself. For example when someone could use extra support, or to ask how the treatment is going.
- Recognising medical signals: You assess complaints within your area of expertise, ask follow-up questions and bring in a doctor when needed.
- Keeping contact personal: You make sure members feel heard and supported, even when contact is entirely digital.
- Helping us improve: You help develop our guidance and work processes further.
Alongside the day-to-day guidance there is room to take on other work. Think of developing educational content, hosting webinars or improving our lifestyle programme.
Who are we looking for?
We are looking for a committed, independent nurse who enjoys working with people and is interested in lifestyle and weight management.
You are a good listener, communicate clearly and come across as personal and professional, even in a chat message. You like to take initiative and notice for yourself when someone needs extra attention.
What we find important:
- You have completed a nursing degree (MBO level 4 or HBO), preferably HBO.
- You hold a valid BIG registration.
- You have relevant work experience as a nurse.
- You have strong clinical reasoning and know when to bring in a doctor.
- You are interested in nutrition, lifestyle and behaviour change.
- You write clear, pleasant Dutch.
- You can work independently and take responsibility.
- You are digitally skilled and comfortable with online systems.
Experience with obesity care, lifestyle coaching or GLP-1 medication is a plus, but not required. We are happy to help you grow in these areas.
Nurse specialists are also welcome to apply. Depending on your experience and qualifications, we will look at a suitable shape for the role.
