Commercial Director - Obesity

Numan · London · Posted 5 days ago

Full-time

Job Description

About Numan    Founded in 2018, we’ve already grown to be a 300+ team distributed across the globe, united by a singular mission: empowering people to take control of their health.   Numan is transforming health: we’ve built a cutting-edge platform that integrates diagnostics, medication, supplements, digital programmes, and doctor consultations. Giving people the tools they need to maximise life.   To deliver on our transformative mission, we are guided by our 5 company values:    • Patients first. • Learn fast. • Own the quality. • Succeed together. • Care deeply.   Backed by top-tier investors, Numan is already having a positive impact on hundreds of thousands of patients here in the UK, and we want you to help us deliver this mission!
The Role: 

The Commercial Director, Obesity owns the business in its entirety: the proposition, the P&L and the commercial outcomes. If obesity grows profitably, it's because this person made the right calls. If it doesn't, they'll already know why.

Most of the levers sit in other teams. Marketing, CRM, product, pricing and clinical ops all shape the obesity P&L, so the Commercial Director has to direct resource they don't own. That resource is won with a clear commercial case and the numbers to back it.

The person who excels here thinks like a founder. They know CAC, CM2, cohort retention and approval rate without being asked, and they read the weekly numbers hunting for the problem before anyone flags it. They care about patients, who come to Numan at a personal moment and need to trust us before they'll stay.


You will:
  • Own patient growth, revenue and CM2 for obesity. Set the plan, make the trade-offs and be accountable for the outcome.

  • Decide what we sell, at what price and on what commitment. Better unit economics and a wider funnel often pull in opposite directions; this role finds the balance and makes the call.

  • Lead the obesity commercial team and run the weekly obesity forum. Point marketing, CRM, product and clinical ops at the highest priorities.

  •  Own the commercial relationships with Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly at UK leadership level, from launch planning to data sharing agreements.

  • Every commercial decision lands inside clinical guardrails. Build a relationship with the clinical team where each side trusts the other's judgement, because patients need both.

  • Bring hands-on experience of AI in a commercial setting: analysis, forecasting, CRM,


  • You'll have:
  • P&L ownership in a D2C subscription, marketplace or consumer health business, ideally one fighting well funded competitors for the same customer.

  • Fluent in unit economics, and comfortable going from a cohort table to a pricing decision in the same meeting.

  • A track record of driving growth through teams they don't manage directly.

  • Strong product instincts, held loosely. They'll drop an idea they love when the numbers say so.

  • Real examples of deploying AI and changing how a team works as a result.

  • Experience in a regulated market (healthcare, financial services, insurance) is a plus.

  • Our benefits include...   📈  -  Share options. 🏖  -  25 days holiday, plus bank holidays (increasing to 30 the longer you stay with Numan).  🩺  -  Health insurance with Vitality. 🚘  - Electric car salary sacrifice scheme with Octopus. 🧸  -  Enhanced maternity and parental leave.  🥳  -  A day off on your Birthday!  🐥  -  Nursery benefit provided by YellowNest. 💼  -  Employee assistance programme (access to therapy, financial planning and discounts). ⚖️  -  Generous pension (includes both employee and employer contributions). 💻  -  Flexible working options, including a dog-friendly office in Farringdon.  📚  -  Personal training and development budget via Learnerbly.  👟  -  Wellhub membership, giving you access to over 2,000 locations in the UK.  🚲  -  Cycle to work scheme. 🚆  -  Season ticket loan.  %   -  Discount on Numan products for your friends and family. 🤲  -  Paid volunteering days.  📅  -  An additional 2 weeks off once you reach your 5th anniversary with Numan.   Diversity at Numan   At Numan, people are at the heart of who we are. We recognise and value the unique perspectives and experiences that individuals from all backgrounds bring.   We promote innovation and creativity, enabling us to tackle things from various viewpoints and are committed to equal opportunities and continuously strive to create a workplace where everyone feels respected, heard, and valued.   Embracing diversity isn't just our goal; it's our strength, driving us towards a more inclusive future.
