Why Oviva?
To build a healthier future for all!
Our mission is to provide accessible and effective care to people living with weight-related conditions. We blend evidence-based behaviour change therapy with our unique technology and a passionate, mission-driven team to tackle some of the biggest healthcare challenges—like obesity and Type 2 diabetes.
Our proven strategy has helped us become award-winning and the largest digital health provider treating diet-related conditions in Europe. We operate within national healthcare systems to give people access to the care they need—when and where they need it.
We are rapidly expanding across Europe, including the UK, Switzerland, Germany, and now Poland. To date, we’ve treated almost 1 million people.
Joining Oviva means joining a company with real momentum, meaningful purpose, and an exciting future.
The Role
We're seeking a VP of Operations to transform how we deliver care across the UK. You’ll lead the strategic evolution of our clinical operations, blending technology, data, and scalable process design to provide exceptional, margin-positive care at scale. In this role you will:
Design and lead Oviva’s UK clinical delivery strategy to drive scale, revenue, and margin growth.
Own national and regional NHS contract delivery, ensuring milestone success and SLA excellence.
Partner with Product & Engineering to build automation-first tools that streamline care workflows.
Lead the shift to asynchronous, tech-enabled care, boosting clinician capacity and reducing friction.
Build and empower a top-tier leadership team, driving a culture of ownership and data-led decisions.
Champion agile change at scale, evolving how we work, lead, and grow during rapid expansion.
Foster psychological safety, inclusivity, and team engagement across a diverse clinical workforce.
Run Oviva UK’s operational heartbeat - quarterly planning, performance cadence, and OKRs.
Shape board and investor insights, bringing strategic clarity on operational health and scaling success.
Drive end-to-end transformation, blending innovation with execution to redefine digital healthcare.
