• Received selective NICE endorsement to provide services to the NHS.
• Tailored our offering to thousands of patients in Germany and Japan.

About the Role (What you’ll be doing)

In a nutshell… At Eucalyptus, we are constantly launching new products, capabilities and markets. We bring in commercial generalist talent from high‑pressure environments, give you the single responsibility for business casing, scoping, project‑managing and delivering against our major new initiatives, and equip you with the training & tools to succeed. This is an opportunity to work with leaders across the business to take ownership of a key piece of work from concept through to delivery.

To be successful in this role, you have to work cross‑functionally with technology, product development, operations, growth and creative specialists to deliver a product or service that customers love. There is a huge amount of autonomy attached to these roles – we like to hire great people (no matter your background), surround you with the resources you need and trust you to make decisions and execute. In the past, these roles have been the training grounds for leaders who would eventually become general managers for our brands, country leads and C‑suite executives. As we expand, and the complexity in the business increases, there will be opportunities to lead the setup of new brands, new markets, and new distribution channels.

In this role you will need to…

• Deeply understand the problems you are solving.
• Be responsible for tailoring every aspect of the patient experience to the context of the surface area you are working on (eg. localising an offering to a new market).
• Track and report performance metrics, and implement strategies to drive your new vertical towards functional maturity or conviction that we should stop investing.
• Get stuck in - eg. write emails, find partners, deliver a white glove experience to patients; and then scale yourself out of this role by hiring and managing cross‑functional resources to scale experiments you are responsible for.
• Drive focus, accountability and motivation across the team through rituals, reporting & stakeholder updates.

Examples of who you would be working with
