Talent Partner in London

About Us

Kooth is a fast-growing, mission-driven organization transforming access to digital mental health support across the UK and the US. Our mission is to create welcoming, accessible spaces for personalized mental health care that helps young people thrive. Working alongside the NHS, Kooth is now the UK's largest digital mental health platform for young people aged 10-25, built on over one million hours of professional support delivered to youth across the country. In the US, we bring this mission to life through Soluna — California’s first statewide digital behavioral health platform for 13-25-year-olds — providing nearly immediate access to coaching, care navigation, peer support, and self-guided tools that help young people build resilience and access support when they need it most.

At Kooth, we’re more than a digital service. We're purpose‑driven, people‑centered, and grounded in our values: Alongside You, Flexible, Compassionate, Committed, and Safe. If you’re looking for meaningful work with measurable impact, you’ll find it here.
