Founding Diagnostics Lead
Eucalyptus
We’re making good health last a lifetime
More than 1 billion people globally live with obesity, a major leading indicator of many preventable chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease.
Eucalyptus is the company behind Juniper, one of the world’s largest weight management programs combining GLP-1 medication with a tailored nutrition and exercise programme, supported by our multidisciplinary care team of prescribers, health coaches, dietitians, nurses and pharmacists.
Our published clinical research demonstrates that our combined approach to weight management and lifestyle change increases the likelihood of our patients losing significant weight during their treatment with Juniper by four times.
Since launching, we’ve grown fast to support millions of patients. In the last 12 months:
- We grew the size of our patient base by 10x in the UK, received selective NICE endorsement for our holistic approach to obesity management, and grew our team from 50 to 200.
- Globally, we grew revenue by >120% YoY, while reducing cash burned by 90% YoY, with over $100M USD raised from global investors such as BOND, NewView, Blackbird and Airtree - early backers of companies like Canva, Stripe, Uber and Airbnb.
What’s next?
In 2025, we are charting the path to support hundreds of thousands of patients while launching into new conditions, demographics, and geographies as we move towards our vision of creating a preventive healthcare ecosystem.
We’re building the world’s largest international digital healthcare company. This will be highly challenging, very rewarding and the adventure of a lifetime, working with the best operators you will ever encounter.
If that gets you excited, let’s talk!
About The Role
At Eucalyptus, we’re on a mission to make good health last a lifetime. Our GLP-1 weight management program has already helped tens of thousands of patients across the UK—combining medication, nutrition, exercise, and clinical support into a single, seamless experience.
Now, we’re building the next chapter: a fully integrated health platform with diagnostics at its core.
Current diagnostic systems are reactive and fragmented. With breakthroughs in AI and medical tech, we have a unique opportunity to reimagine preventative care—making it proactive, personalised, and deeply impactful.
This role is your chance to build and scale a diagnostics business from the ground up. You’ll define the vision, launch the product, and embed it within our broader ecosystem—unlocking better outcomes for patients and new growth for the business.
What You'll Do
- Build from zero to one: Own the full lifecycle—from concept to MVP—testing rapidly with patients and clinicians to create high-trust experiences
- Launch and scale: Lead go-to-market execution and embed diagnostics across our platform in close partnership with cross-functional teams
- Refine and grow: Use data and feedback to iterate fast, improve outcomes, and evolve the model
- Shape the commercial strategy: Define pricing, delivery models, and success metrics to guide long-term sustainability
This is a rare opportunity for a visionary product leader to reshape the future of healthcare. If that sounds like you—we’d love to talk.
About You
We're looking for a true founder at heart—someone passionate about health and driven by the excitement of building a transformative diagnostics business from the ground up. You thrive in early-stage environments, love solving complex problems, and have a proven track record of turning ambitious visions into impactful realities.
Skills & Experience:
- Proven Product Leader (8+ years): You’ve led strategy and execution across fast-moving industries, taking products from zero to one and scaling them to adoption. You thrive in ambiguity and deliver with urgency.

- Founder or early-stage builder: You’ve built or scaled ventures from scratch, navigating chaos with clarity and balancing scrappy execution with long-term vision.
- Data-driven and outcome-focused: You identify what matters, interrogate the data, and act decisively. You’re constantly refining your approach to deliver measurable impact.
- Cross-functional operator: You rally teams across product, clinical, engineering, and marketing around bold goals, and drive momentum through crisp alignment and collaboration.
Behaviours & Attitudes
- Patient-first mindset: You put patient outcomes above all else, ensuring every decision balances business growth with clinical excellence and exceptional care.
- Entrepreneurial drive: You approach challenges with creativity, resourcefulness, and persistence. You're comfortable with ambiguity, able to navigate uncertainty, and skilled at finding paths forward when the way isn't clear.
- Strategic and tactical balance: You can think big while also attending to details. You set bold visions but also understand the operational realities of bringing them to life.
- Continuous learner: You're intellectually curious and humble. You actively seek new perspectives, adapt your thinking based on evidence, and embrace the learning curve of building in new health domains.
