“We Care About PEOPLE.”

Hello there! Ever wanted to be the boss of your own gig but get cold feet thinking about all the businessy stuff? Don’t sweat it! This job is a contractor role, but here’s the kicker: we handle the business side so you can focus on what you do best- working with the clients. We’re Level Up Wellness Group, based in Beaumont, Alberta, and we’re all about emotional well-being for people of all ages.

We are looking for someone who’s got their professional hat on but is also super driven and can kick things off on their own. We’re growing like crazy, and we need individuals who are down to grow with us. We are looking to relocate to our new space in 2025! Our space will provide an exclusive environment that supports client and provider well-being.

We will provide you internal referrals but you have to be willing to spread the word about SLP services, cuz the more peeps know, the more we can help.
