Patient Engagement Specialist
Eucalyptus
Eucalyptus (or 'Euc' for short) is a healthcare technology organisation on a mission to deliver high-touch, high-quality care to millions of patients. We have 4 healthcare brands that form the connective tissue between telehealth consults with doctors, pharmacy delivery and ongoing patient care. Our goal is to provide a differentiated and comprehensive care experience for a wide variety of patients and conditions.
We're well funded, having raised over $100M with our Series C round led by Aussie and US venture capital funds who were early backers of Airbnb, Canva, Uber, and Spotify.
We're not your typical start-up, and we don't want typical candidates either. If you're an out-of-the-box thinker, a trendsetter, a risk-taker, and passionate about making a difference in the world, and be a part of building something extraordinary – keep on reading!
If you are customer obsessed in retail, hospitality, customer service or sales and want to expand your skills and network quickly - take the leap into a leading startup! We want to hear from you!
The PX (Patient Experience) team is at the heart of Eucalyptus and our brands. The team thrives on making every patient feel uniquely cared for and ensuring our Doctors and fellow Eucalypts can rely on us.
The primary responsibility of the Patient Engagement Specialist is to drive health and business outcomes by providing high quality support to our patients through outbound and inbound phone conversations at all stages of their journey with us. This is a hybrid role with a balance of working from home and from our new office in Sydney CBD.
Healthcare is one of the last industries to experience a digital revolution, and to help earn the right to treat their condition digitally, a human touch can accelerate a relationship of trust. These interactions add depth to the patient experience and enable higher touch healthcare.
You will work alongside our growth marketing team, doctors, nurses, pharmacies and our email/livechant patient support team to ensure each patients unique needs are met.
You will be the voice of the patients to drive product, process and system improvement through collaboration with the wider teams in Eucalyptus.
Why join Eucalyptus?
We are building the future of accessible, patient-centric healthcare!
We have built a technology platform that brings high touch healthcare into the internet age. We plug into doctors, specialists and pharmacies to provide high quality, convenient health products and services.
Our platform currently has 4 healthcare brands that serve patients with different needs and at all stages of their life.
- Pilot provides men with a safe space to access care for sexual health, hair and weight
- Kin supports a woman’s entire fertility and health journey
- Software makes it easy to access effective anti-aging and acne treatment
- Juniper supports older women through menopause and their weight loss journey
In just 3 years, we have helped over 200,000 patients across our four brands. And yet, we believe we have only scratched the surface of what is possible in digital healthcare.
How do we work at Eucalyptus?
You’ll be surrounded by a world-class team of thinkers, designers, engineers and leaders who are obsessed with three things:

The organisation is flat and decision making happens regularly and rapidly at every level of the business. Ultimately, people are given the freedom to make decisions (and mistakes), and learn from the journey. We like to set goals with the mindset that if we hit them all, we haven’t challenged ourselves enough.
