Life Connect Medical, Rancho Mirage, CA 92270 · Full-Time · On-Site
Build something new inside something trusted.
Our established primary care practice has served the Coachella Valley for 20+ years. Now we're expanding into advanced wellness, body contouring, and aesthetics using BTL technology (EMVITALS, EMSCULPT NEO, EMSELLA, EXOMIND, and more) — and we're looking for a driven Wellness Practice Manager to launch, grow, and own this new line of business.
This is a rare ground-floor opportunity: the patient base, the reputation, and the medical credibility already exist. Your job is to turn that foundation into a thriving wellness and aesthetics destination — and to help us expand into additional functional medicine and aesthetic services over time.
What you'll do
Generate and convert leads
- Develop and work a steady pipeline of new leads through outreach, calls, and follow-up
- Schedule and conduct in-office consultations and live device demos
- Shadow the physician during consultations and close the sale
- Sell treatment packages, memberships, and ongoing maintenance plans
- Manage the business practice website content
Own the patient journey
- Guide patients through pre-procedure prep and post-procedure follow-up
- Build long-term relationships that drive retention, referrals, and repeat visits
Drive marketing and brand
- Market the new wellness line across the practice website, Instagram, Facebook, and other digital channels
- Capture and produce patient video testimonials, before/after content, and credibility/review content
- Grow our local visibility and online reputation in the Rancho Mirage / Palm Desert area and Coachella Valley
Lead the expansion
- Help launch and scale additional functional medicine and aesthetic service lines
- Bring ideas, systems, and energy to a business that's just getting started
Who we're looking for
- A natural closer who's comfortable selling premium wellness and aesthetic services
- Experience in medical aesthetics, med spa, wellness, or healthcare sales/marketing strongly preferred (BTL device experience a big plus)
- Hands-on with social media and digital marketing — you can shoot, post, and grow an audience
- Organized self-starter who can manage leads, follow-ups, and the full patient lifecycle
- Warm, professional, and credible in front of patients and on camera
- Entrepreneurial mindset — excited to build, not just maintain
Why join us
- A 20+ year patient base and trusted medical reputation to build on
- Ground-floor ownership of a brand-new, high-growth wellness and aesthetics line
- Premier Rancho Mirage location
- Real room to grow as the business expands into new services
Compensation
$25–$35/hour base (DOE) + uncapped commission + performance bonuses. On-target earnings: $90,000–$120,000+. Top performers earn more.

Wellness Manager Jobs in California: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a wellness manager in California?
Most wellness manager roles in California require a bachelor's degree in public health, kinesiology, health promotion, or a related field, though many senior positions prefer a master's degree. California does not issue a state-specific wellness manager license, but employers consistently require nationally recognized credentials such as the Certified Health Education Specialist (CHES), awarded through the National Commission for Health Education Credentialing, or the Certified Wellness Practitioner (CWP) through the National Wellness Institute.
Which companies hire wellness managers in California?
California wellness manager roles are posted by PNC Financial Services, The People Concern, and Elevo and others right now, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. California's large tech campuses, integrated health systems, and self-insured public employers create especially consistent demand for in-house wellness leadership.
Which California cities have the most wellness manager jobs?
Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San Diego have the most wellness manager openings in California. Los Angeles and San Francisco generate the largest share of postings because of their concentration of Fortune 500 corporate campuses and major academic medical centers, while San Diego's biotech corridor and UCSD Health system drive demand in that market.
Are there remote wellness manager jobs in California?
Yes, but they're less common than in fully desk-based roles because wellness managers often oversee on-site programming, vendor appointments, and in-person health screenings. About 20% of wellness manager openings tied to California are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, with the remote-eligible work concentrating in benefits administration, program strategy, and data analysis rather than direct delivery.
How can I get hired as a wellness manager in California with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is moving into a wellness coordinator or health educator role first, then building toward a manager title. Large California health systems like Kaiser Permanente and Sutter Health post community health educator and population health coordinator openings that accept candidates without prior management experience. County public health departments across Los Angeles, Alameda, and San Diego Counties hire entry-level health program assistants. Earning the CHES credential while in an adjacent role such as HR benefits specialist, occupational health technician, or fitness coordinator strengthens a candidacy meaningfully for California employers.
Where can I find and apply to wellness manager jobs in California?
