Train to Become a Canadian Certified Pedorthist — SoleScience, London ON
Full-time · Paid training · A clear path to certification The role
You know how the body moves — biomechanics, anatomy, gait, injury. Pedorthics is where that knowledge meets your hands: assessing how someone walks, then designing, building, and fitting the custom orthotics, footwear, and compression that get them moving comfortably again.
We're hiring a Kinesiology graduate (or final-year student) who wants to build a career in pedorthics. No pedorthics experience needed — you'll learn side by side with our experienced pedorthists at our Maitland Street clinic and lab in London, Ontario, while you earn your certification through the Post-Graduate Diploma in Pedorthics at Western University (next intake: September 2027). And you'll learn it end to end: both traditional hand-made orthotic design and fabrication and modern digital workflows — CAD/CAM design, milling, and 3D printing.
Who we are
Since 2002, SoleScience has built its reputation on one idea: your body isn't a problem to fix — it's a system to understand. Founded by Dr.
Colin
Dombroski (Ph.D., C. Ped (C)), we're a team of Canadian Certified Pedorthists, lab technicians, and footwear specialists who make custom orthotics in our own London lab — using both time-tested hand fabrication and digital CAD/CAM design, milling, and 3D printing. We're known among referring physicians as the clinic that will tell patients honestly whether they even need orthotics — because doing right by the patient always comes first. As a Western Continuing Studies placement partner, supporting people through exactly this path is something we already do well. We're a team that takes learning seriously, isn't afraid to do things a little differently, and genuinely enjoys the work.
What you'll do
- Assess and advise patients on orthotics, footwear,
bracing, and compression
- Run gait assessments as part of our GAiT Profile process
- Build custom orthotic devices in our in-house lab — from hand fabrication to CAD/CAM milling and 3D printing
- Fit, adjust, and follow up so every patient reaches their goal
- Keep accurate, professional patient records
It's a hands-on, on-your-feet role in a friendly, detail-driven environment.
Who you are
- A Kinesiology graduate or final-year student ready to pursue pedorthics (science grads without a Kin degree may qualify via Western's four-month bridging program — ask us)
- Someone who genuinely likes people and likes helping them
- Reliable, takes initiative, and sweats the details
- Confident with computers and quick to pick up new software — comfortable working across both Mac and PC
- Shares our patient-first, honest, education-focused values
What we offer
- Salary: $50,000–$60,000 per year
- Paid, structured training toward your Canadian Certified Pedorthist designation
- Tuition reimbursement for the Western diploma, based on years served after graduation
- Group perks through a Healthcare Spending Account
- Qualified dues covered — we pay your Pedorthic Association of Canada and College of Pedorthics of Canada memberships
- After one year: the option of a 36-hour work week, paid as 40
- A close-knit, supportive team and a career with real room to grow
