UK Country Manager
Lead the UK market. Scale behavioural science. Deliver patient-centric impact through technology. Create Change for Good.
At Atlantis Health, we partner with pharmaceutical, biotech and healthcare organisations to co‑design and deliver personalised, multichannel patient engagement solutions that improve experiences and outcomes across the health journey. With offices in London, Frankfurt, New Jersey, Sydney and New Zealand, we bring together leading behavioural science, co design and data‑driven digital platforms and proprietary technologies to create scalable, patient‑centred solutions that support people living with long‑term conditions and empower positive health outcomes — delivering Change for Good.
We’re looking for a Country Manager to lead the AHUK business — with full P&L accountability — and to elevate our UK market position as a best-in-class patient solutions partner which supports UK, European and Global Head office pharmaceutical partners.
This role is for a leader who can drive commercial performance and bring genuine depth in integrating behavioural science evidence and frameworks into engaging, patient-centric solutions, delivered through modern technology.
The Opportunity
As UK Country Manager, you’ll own UK strategy, performance and culture — leading department heads and partnering closely with the global team. You’ll strengthen and grow key client relationships, guide the evolution of the Atlantis Health offering in market, and ensure we consistently deliver on-time, on-strategy and on-budget solutions.
Critically, you will champion the UK’s capability to translate behavioural science into real-world, scalable programmes, using leading technologies to optimise outcomes for patients, HCPs, clients and internal teams.
What You’ll Be Responsible For
1) Market & Commercial Leadership (P&L Ownership)
Full responsibility for the AHUK P&L and achievement of strategic, operational and financial objectives, aligned to Group strategy.
Lead business development and the in-market evolution of the Atlantis offer, including selling and scaling globally developed behaviour change solutions that are tailored to client needs, not just off-the-shelf products.
Develop and execute a local marketing plan, pulling through Group marketing activity to support BD efforts.
Represent and champion Atlantis Health in senior external engagements with clients, partners and suppliers.
2) Behavioural Science Excellence Embedded in Consulting Services & Delivery (Core Focus)
Set the expectation that every UK solution is grounded in leading behavioural science evidence and makes explicit use of recognised behaviour change frameworks as relevant.
Lead multidisciplinary teams (e.g., behavioural science, co design, client services, strategic consulting, creative, digital, data/insights) to translate evidence into engaging, patient-centred solutions that drive measurable change.
Ensure our patient engagement solutions are designed with patients and providers, reflecting real-world barriers, motivations and context.
Drive a culture of outcomes: clear behavioural objectives, pragmatic measurement, and continuous optimisation of interventions to improve stakeholder experience and results.
3) Technology-Enabled Patient-Centric Solutions (Core Focus)
Champion the deployment of leading technologies to enable personalisation and multichannel engagement (digital platforms, data-driven segmentation, content personalisation, workflow/CRM integration, automation, analytics, and emerging AI capabilities where appropriate).
Ensure technology is used in service of patient needs — designing solutions that are simple, supportive, accessible, and credible for patients and HCPs.
Strengthen UK capability to deliver scalable solutions using data-driven digital platforms and proprietary technologies that enhance engagement and outcomes.
4) Operational Excellence & People Leadership
Ensure on-time, on-strategy, on-budget delivery of client consulting and end to end solutions in collaboration with client services leadership.
Drive local operational efficiency and best-practice implementation.
Lead recruitment, development, motivation and performance management for UK teams and department leads ~20 people working hybrid remote with two days a week in our office based in Richmond, West London.
Implement Group policies, procedures and communications locally.
5) Governance, Risk & Accountability
Act as senior UK leader with strong governance discipline across delivery, financial controls and operational risk.
Serve as the UK Senior Responsible Individual (SRI) for data privacy and compliance, accountable for key decisions and risk acceptance (with day-to-day operational support from Group Quality & Compliance).
About You
You’re a commercially strong, people-centred leader who can credibly sit with clients at senior level and go deep on how behavioural science, co design and technology create better outcomes.
You’ll likely bring:
Proven leadership experience with P&L accountability in healthcare/life sciences, patient engagement, digital health, agency/professional services or adjacent sectors
Demonstrated experience integrating behavioural science evidence and frameworks into real-world, patient-centred solutions (not just “awareness” — you’ve operationalised it)
10+ year track record deploying patient-centric solutions using leading technologies and multichannel approaches, translating strategy into delivery at scale including in the UK, across the EU and also US
Strong client leadership: trusted advisor mindset, commercial rigour, and confidence leading complex stakeholder environments
Leadership style that is clear, accountable, inclusive and pragmatic — able to build a high-performing, values-led culture
