**Position: Registered Kinesiologist**
**Clinic name**: Trent Health in Motion
**Location**: Peterborough, Ontario (Trent University Athletic Centre)

**Closing date**: May 1 2024.

**What makes Trent Health in Motion a great place to work?**

We are a physio-owned small family business. We understand the perspective of clinicians and we work hard to make this an enjoyable, sustainable and supportive workplace.

**We believe in lifelong learning, for ourselves and for our team.** We do this through mentorship, continuing education, student placements, inservices, goal setting, reflective practice, giving and receiving feedback, and multidisciplinary collaboration & discussions.

**We are committed to making a positive impact on our community. **In addition to helping people through one-on-one appointments, a couple initiatives we have taken recently include:

- We have developed and run our Seniors in Motion Program, which has significantly improved the health related quality of life of many groups of seniors in our community, including Curve Lake First Nation, which we have offered free of charge to 200+ participants (through securing government grant funding).
- We are members of Green Economy Peterborough, a local network of environmentally-minded businesses, to identify, set, and achieve sustainability goals.

**Location, location, location** We are in Peterborough’s growing North end. We are on the beautiful Trent University campus, with lots of natural light, views of the Otonabee River, walking trails, and all the vibrancy and opportunity of a university campus. Located in the middle of Trent’s Athletics Centre, we get access to the works - weight room, cardio loft, therapy pool, climbing wall, rowing tank, sports gym, track and field - anything you could want to help your clients achieve their goals

**We care about the wellbeing of people who work for us.** We offer a full-time employee package, with competitive compensation, access to benefits, paid sick days, paid vacation, and access to our community BKE shop membership for those who enjoy cycling. We also offer flexible hours and we have lots of fun at our social events.

**We bring in lots of assessments, and we get to work with a wide variety of mostly active clientele,** including elite and recreational athletes, students, seniors, and perinatal populations.

**We believe healthcare works best when professionals from different disciplines work together. **This is why we have built a multidisciplinary team, so that we can learn from each other and collaborate for a more seamless experience for clients. Our clinical team currently includes a sports medicine physician, physiotherapists, pelvic physiotherapists, chiropractor, massage therapists, athletic therapists, dietitian and a personal trainer. We also have a stellar front desk and admin team, to support our clinicians and clients.
