Director Strategy

At Oviva, we’re on a mission to make sustainable, personalised, clinically effective care accessible to everyone and to deliver against our vision of becoming Europe’s leading AI-powered chronic care platform.

Our award-winning digital health programmes blend evidence-based behaviour change therapy with cutting-edge technology to tackle chronic health conditions such as obesity and Type 2 diabetes. Having supported over a million patients across the UK, Germany and Switzerland we are scaling to deliver even more impact, and you could help shape the future of digital health.

The Role

As we continue scaling across Europe, we’re looking for a Director of Strategy. This role sits at the heart of Oviva’s global strategy execution, embedded in the CEO Office. You will lead key strategic initiatives that drive clarity, alignment, and execution across the organization while working closely with the Senior Director Strategy, CEO, and Executive Team.

You’re a structured, analytical thinker who thrives in dynamic environments and enjoys turning strategy into action. You bring strong project leadership, problem-solving, and stakeholder management skills and you’re motivated by making things happen.

We’d love to hear from you if you have:

• A background in consulting, strategy, or similar analytical roles within high-growth or complex organisations.
• Experience leading cross-functional projects from concept to execution.
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to influence and build trust at all levels.
• A curious and proactive mindset, comfortable navigating ambiguity and driving clarity.
• A genuine interest in purpose-driven work and improving healthcare outcomes.
• Experience in healthcare or other regulated sectors is a bonus.
• Lead high-priority strategic initiatives end-to-end, from scoping to implementation. This could include market expansion, new product or service launches, or operational improvement programs.
• Run Oviva’s OKR process, coordinating planning cycles, mid-term check-ins, and retrospectives, while ensuring alignment and accountability across all departments.
• Conduct market, competitive, and business analyses to support strategic decisions, using a hypothesis-driven and data-led approach.
• Partner with senior leaders across product, commercial, clinical, finance, and people teams to turn strategic ideas into executable plans.
• Prepare and contribute to executive and board discussions by structuring insights, recommendations, and progress updates.
• Manage complex, multi-stakeholder projects with competing priorities, ensuring strong communication and smooth execution at every stage.
• A mission-driven environment focused on making a real-world impact.
• High-growth opportunities with a clear path to broader strategic leadership.
• A flexible remote/hybrid work culture across the UK, Germany, Switzerland and Poland.
• Annual learning & development budget.
• Home working allowance and flexible working hours.
• Competitive compensation, benefits, and inclusive policies (enhanced leave, etc.)

Having a culture that people want to work in, is very important to us. We do this by keeping our values at the forefront of everything we do: 

We put the patient first, We empower our teams, We make it happen

Oviva is passionate about creating an inclusive culture that celebrates diverse voices and perspectives. We are proud to be a Disability Confident Employer and welcome applicants from all backgrounds and identities.
