Vitl has a fantastic opportunity for a proven leader with strong digital experience to become MD of Vitl.com. You will work in close collaboration with our Founder and CEO, to take us from a challenger brand to a mainstream consumer brand.

As MD, you will own and manage the entire Vitl.com business, including defining strategy, identifying growth opportunities, customer journeys, product, operations, finance, and importantly the management and development of the Vitl.com team.

Our people are the Vitl ingredient to the overall success of the business. You will have a leading role in helping recruit, build, manage and organise the optimal running of the team, and will be at the core of inspiring and developing our culture across different markets, while strategising further expansion.

Setting up short- and long-term goals for the company, you will work with our Founder & CEO to both budget for and drive growth and financial performance. You will also take the lead on product strategy for both our digital and physical product roadmap, overseeing all aspects from ideation to execution.
