We're looking for an experienced, patient obsessed, metrics driven and people-first leader to lead our medical support team.

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.

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:

1. The health and wellbeing of the average person
2. Creating personalised, engaging, convenient user-experiences
3. Making healthcare fun and interesting (because it is)

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.
