241 Fitness Coaching jobs in the United Kingdom

Remote | Flexible hours | Fixed-term contracts (17–27 weeks)

We’re on the lookout for passionate, forward-thinking Registered Nutritionists and Dietitians to join our team of Health Coaches on a fixed-term basis who are available immediately. Whether you're looking for more flexibility, purposeful work, or the chance to make a real impact, this role delivers.

You’ll support people across the UK living with obesity and type 2 diabetes, coaching them through the Second Nature programme via our digital platform. You’ll provide behavioural support that drives long-term lifestyle change, helping people build healthier habits that stick.

If you’re excited by the idea of flexible work that fits around your lifestyle and want to be part of a mission to transform how people take control of their health, this is your chance to get involved.

We’re looking for professionals registered with the AfN or HCPC who are passionate about improving health and wellbeing, confident working autonomously, and eager to deliver world-class coaching. If you're tech-savvy, highly organised, and happy working remotely from your laptop (from the comfort of your own home!), we’d love to hear from you.

The Company

Obesity has become a global epidemic; in the UK, we spend £9 billion a year alone on diseases like type 2 diabetes (that’s 10% of the NHS budget). What’s shocking is that most of this is preventable through sustained lifestyle and habit change.

Enter Second Nature.

We’re here to help people take control of their health. By bringing together behavioural science, technology, and incredible people, our grand mission is to eradicate the global epidemic of chronic lifestyle diseases once and for all.

Our digital habit change programme, delivered digitally through a mobile app, helps people to improve their lifestyle, lose weight, and ultimately reduce their risk for conditions such as type 2 diabetes.

We’re also one of the few consumer health brands that are actively commissioned by the NHS to help people living with type 2 diabetes and the National Weight Management Service.

You can find out more about working with us here and here.

The Role

As a Health Coach, you'll be the heartbeat of the Second Nature programme, empowering people to take charge of their health. You’ll coach members through a 12-week journey using our digital platform, offering daily support and motivation primarily through written group chats and 1:1 messaging, with occasional voice notes and calls. This regular contact enables our coaches to support hundreds of members every step of the way.

You’ll guide members across five key pillars of behaviour change:

• Nutrition
• Physical activity
• Sleep
• Stress
• Mindset
  

You'll be joining a team of health coaches who do more than offer advice; you'll help build trust, encourage, and create a safe, supportive space where members feel seen, understood, and motivated to keep going.

This role supports members across a range of NHS contracts and private partnerships, including Vitality Health. While you’ll be coaching independently, you’ll have the full backing of our experienced team, tools, and training, so you can focus on what you do best: helping people change their lives for good.

After completing at least one contract, there may also be opportunities to support members on our medication-assisted programme. As part of this role, you’ll also contribute to engagement calls that enhance the member experience and keep them feeling supported throughout their journey.

Requirements

We’re looking for someone who’s excited by the potential of digital health, confident working remotely, and passionate about behaviour change. You’ll be a strong communicator, highly organised, and ready to make an impact from day one.

Essential:

• Registered/Associate Nutritionist (AfN) or Registered Dietitian (HCPC)
• Strong written communication skills
• Passion for health, behaviour change, and digital innovation
• Solid understanding of the evolving field of nutritional science
• Tech-savvy and confident working remotely, independently, and in front of a laptop most of the day
• Excellent time management and organisational skills
• Experience using behaviour change techniques (e.g. CBT, NLP, MI)

Nice to have:

• Previous experience working with people living with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes
• Experience in digital coaching or a virtual healthcare setting

Benefits

• An exciting opportunity to work in one of the UK’s most innovative health tech start-ups

• See the real-world impact of your work, helping thousands of people improve their health and wellbeing

• Flexible working hours and autonomy to support your wellbeing

• 100% remote working from anywhere in the UK
• Flexibility through short-term contracts
• A supportive, mission-driven team passionate about transforming public health
  

Please make sure to apply by 19/09/2025 , as we are requiring the new FTC Health Coach to start work on w/c 29/09/25; therefore, we are moving quite quickly with hiring.

Please make sure you complete the application and attach your CV, including your professional registration details. Without these, we won’t be able to take your application forward.

If we don't have a chance to get back to you, we're not intentionally being rude, we really appreciate your interest in working with Second Nature, but please assume it's a no for now!
