Why Oviva?

At Oviva, we’re on a mission to make sustainable, personalised, clinically effective care accessible to everyone as we build Europe’s leading AI-powered chronic care platform. Our digital programmes help people manage weight-related illnesses by focusing on what matters most: improving health, building confidence, and enhancing quality of life.

To date, we have supported over one million people across the UK, Switzerland, and Germany. Our mission is powered by a dedicated team operating across four countries, including our hub in Poland. Every conversation, coaching session, and line of code brings us closer to a healthier future.

Our journey is accelerating: In 2026, we secured €200 million in Series D funding led by Kinnevik and a group of leading global investors. This investment fuels our next phase of growth, allowing us to scale our AI-enabled chronic care platform across Europe and expand our support to even more people living with chronic conditions.

Join us, and be part of the team making that future possible!

  • 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.
