Job Description
Physical Therapist - New Grads Welcome! AIM Adavance in Motion Wilmington, NC Job Details Full-time $80,000 - $100,000 a year 1 day ago Benefits Continuing education credits License reimbursement Health insurance Dental insurance 401(k) Paid time off Vision insurance Opportunities for advancement Flexible schedule Life insurance Retirement plan Qualifications Physical Therapy Physical Therapy License Doctor of Physical Therapy Full Job Description You've been out two or three years. You're actually good at this now. And you keep having the same thought. Not on the hard days. On the good ones. When you figure out something two other clinicians missed, then look around at how the place is run and think: I'd do this differently. I'd do this better. Then the thought dies where it always dies. You've never seen a P&L. You don't know what credentialing actually takes, what hiring really looks like, how to build referral relationships, or whether you'd even be good at the parts that aren't treating patients. So you file it under "someday" and go back to your caseload. Here's the problem. Nobody is really going to teach you this. Not DPT school. Not residency. And probably not a clinic that benefits from you staying exactly where you are. Most Physical Therapists who eventually open a practice learn the business side by making expensive mistakes with their own money. We'd rather teach you on ours. Compensation and Benefits $80,000 to $100,000 annually depending on experience Medical, dental, and vision insurance 401(k) and retirement benefits Paid time off Continuing education support License reimbursement Life insurance Opportunities for advancement Business and leadership development A genuine long-term path toward greater responsibility and potential ownership What You'll Actually Learn Here Beyond becoming a sharper clinician, you'll get exposure to the real business behind running and growing a Physical Therapy practice. The numbers. Learn how clinic performance is measured, how reimbursement and expenses affect the business, and what healthy growth actually looks like. The systems. Scheduling, capacity, revenue cycle, credentialing, EMR, compliance, and the systems that keep a clinic running. The people part. Hiring, onboarding, setting expectations, coaching, leadership, and the conversations most clinicians are never taught how to handle. Growth. Referral relationships, community partnerships, patient acquisition, marketing, and how a practice actually grows. Direct access to ownership. Ask questions, understand decisions, and learn from the wins, mistakes, and lessons that come with building a practice. The Path Is Defined Strong clinician → leadership responsibilities → clinic director → future equity and ownership opportunity as Advance in Motion continues to grow. You'll have the opportunity to figure out whether ownership is genuinely for you before you ever have to risk your own money. And if you go through this and decide you would rather just treat patients? That's a good outcome too. Far better to learn that inside an established practice than after you've taken on the financial risk yourself. The Clinical Work At Advance in Motion Physical Therapy in Wilmington, North Carolina , you'll work with patients who want to move better, recover from injury, reduce pain, and get back to the things they care about.
