Full job description

Founding Clinic Director 
Launch and lead a clinic. Build a business. No startup risk.


Compensation: $120,000 base + profit sharing from day one
Total compensation potential: $215,000+
Year 3 total compensation at a performing clinic averages $195,000-$230,000 based on current clinic results across our Bay Area locations.
Benefits: Health benefits + 401(k) match


Most physical therapists spend their careers delivering care inside systems they did not build.

A small number want more.
They want to lead.
They want to build.
They want to understand how a great clinic actually grows.
They want to develop people, drive performance, and create something meaningful, without taking on the financial risk of starting from scratch.


That is what this role is built for.
Competitive Edge Physical Therapy is opening a new clinic in Draper Utah and hiring a Founding Clinic Director to lead it.

This is not a traditional clinic director position.  It is a chance to launch and grow a clinic inside an established company with proven systems, centralized support, and a serious expansion vision.

You will lead the clinic locally while our team supports the infrastructure behind it with marketing, sales, operations, systems, finance, and strategic guidance.

Who this is For
This role is for a PT who is:
  • ambitious enough to want more than a clinical job
  • excited by leadership, growth, and accountability
  • interested in business, not just patient care
  • motivated by building a team and growing a location
  • ready to become the kind of leader who can scale with a company
If you’ve ever thought, “I want to build something bigger, but I don’t want to take on all the startup risk alone,” this may be the opportunity.

What Makes this Different
Most PT leadership roles are just heavier caseloads with more admin work.  We've designed this role to be different with intentional focus on growth, impact, business skills, and progression towards a skilled operator leader not just a busy clinician. 

You will learn how to:
  • lead and develop a team
  • grow a clinic strategically
  • understand financial performance and profitability
  • build referral and community relationships
  • improve conversion and client experience
  • create accountability and a high-performance culture
  • operate a clinic as a business, not just a treatment schedule
You won’t be doing it unsupported.  You’ll be backed by a centralized team and a company already proving the model across multiple locations.

What You’ll Do
  • Launch and lead a new Competitive Edge Physical Therapy location
  • Build and maintain a strong client caseload
  • Create an exceptional client experience and clinical standard
  • Mentor and develop clinicians and team members
  • Build local relationships and community presence
  • Drive clinic growth, team performance, and profitability
  • Help execute the long-term vision of the company as we scale
About Competitive Edge Physical Therapy
Competitive Edge Physical Therapy is a cash-based physical therapy company serving active adults and athletes across multiple markets.

We combine elite care with advanced technology, including:
  • 3D motion analysis
  • Instrumented treadmills
  • Dual force plates
  • EMG biofeedback
We believe movement should be measured, improved, and protected for life. We are building the premier movement health company for high-performing adults who want to stay capable, active, and unburdened as they age.

We are also building a company where exceptional clinicians can become exceptional leaders.

We are bringing this model to the Salt Lake corridor, one of the fastest-growing and most athletically active markets in the US, where cash-based performance PT is genuinely underserved.


Our vision is to grow to 10 clinics by 2028 and become the top destination for physical therapists who want to lead, build, and grow.

Who We’re Looking For
  • Licensed Physical Therapist in Utah, or eligible for licensure
  • Several years of clinical experience
  • Strong leadership potential
  • High accountability and growth orientation
  • Interest in business, team development, and clinic growth
  • Willingness to build relationships in the community
  • Desire to be part of a high-standard, performance-driven organization
Who this is not for
  • Someone who only wants to treat and go home
  • Someone uncomfortable with accountability
  • Someone who wants leadership in title only
Compensation & benefits
  • Base salary: $120,000
  • Profit sharing from day one
  • Total compensation potential exceeding $215,000
  • Direct leadership training and mentorship
  • 401(k) with 4% company match
  • Healthcare benefits
  • Paid time off
  • Sick pay
  • Two hours of paid professional development per week

Ready to build something bigger?
We are in the early planning stages for our Utah expansion and are connecting with qualified candidates now. If this role resonates with you, we'd love to have a conversation.

Most physical therapists will never get the chance to launch and lead a clinic with real support behind them.
​​​​​​​

If you want to grow as a leader, build a high-performance team, and create something meaningful without startup risk, we should talk.

In 2015, the doors to Competitive EDGE Physical Therapy opened, and the space consisted of a treadmill, a single PT table, a few weights, and Dr. Kevin Vandi — the man who started it all. Kevin had worked in a traditional physical therapy setting for years, and his experience led him to realize how the traditional treatment model neglected to provide TRUE solutions for his patients. So, he set out to make a change and create a place where clients could receive the time and individualized attention that was not only deserved, but necessary to heal effectively and prevent future injury. He wanted PEOPLE to be the center of the practice… And just like that, Competitive EDGE was born as a place where relationships could be built on mutual trust and shared goals, therapists had the time to educate and empower their clients, and above all else, the data and research-backed treatment dictated the course of treatment. While the fundamentals of human movement and healing haven’t changed dramatically in the last few decades, our ability to measure that healing and speed it up with actual, real-life data has. And we believe it’s time that capability was used to help people heal faster, create stronger mind-body connections, and — most importantly — reclaim the movements that are most important to each person’s life. We’ve incorporated research-grade technology into our treatment to provide a more complete picture of movement, leading to more accurate diagnoses, a streamlined treatment process, and the most efficient pathway back to healthy movement and pain-free activity. This is physical therapy as it should be — trusted, passionate professionals using state of the art technology to provide the most accurate diagnosis and a clear path forward. We aren’t here with guru approaches or fad treatments. What we have is much better: knowledge of how the human body should move, and the technology and data to make it work (plus a whole pile of experience and enthusiasm).
