Chief of Staff to the Founders at Metabolic Health. This is a high-visibility strategic partnership role supporting the CEO of a rapidly scaling healthtech company redefining diabetes care through AI, continuous data monitoring, and personalized interventions. Based in the UAE.
Company Overview
Metabolic Health is a healthtech company focused on redefining diabetes care through AI, continuous data monitoring, and personalized interventions. The organization operates across Technology, Clinical, and Commercial functions, with emphasis on regulatory compliance, patient outcomes, and hyper-growth scaling.
Role Purpose
To serve as the trusted strategic partner and force multiplier for the Founder, driving immediate impact by streamlining high-priority initiatives, synthesizing insights across functions, and ensuring the Founder's time is laser-focused on vision and growth. This role bridges the AI/Technology roadmap with clinical outcomes and commercial execution while fostering alignment in a hyper-growth environment through tight partnership rather than direct management.
Key Responsibilities
Strategic & Operational Alignment
- Track and drive execution of OKRs and key projects, ensuring cross-functional alignment and timely delivery, especially at the Tech/Clinical interface (e.g., AI model deployments tied to validation timelines).
- Consolidate updates from functional leaders (Clinical Operations, Finance, Technology, Business Development) into concise, high-signal briefings for the Founder, highlighting risks, opportunities, and decisions needed.
- Serve as the primary liaison between Product/Technology teams and Clinical/Business Operations, aligning releases with regulatory milestones and patient impact goals.
- Design and oversee KPI dashboards tracking AI/Tech impact on outcomes, efficiency, and revenue; prepare Board-level reports.
- Orchestrate executive and Board meetings, including agendas, pre-reads, and follow-up accountability.
Project & Organizational Leadership
- Represent the Founder in internal and external forums as directed, advancing priorities with authority and discretion.
- Identify and implement process improvements to eliminate friction, with emphasis on compliance, tech scaling, and decision velocity.
- Proactively flag roadblocks and lead corrective actions, from project pivots to organizational gap-filling.
- Own high-impact, cross-functional efforts outside existing silos (e.g., fundraising prep, partnership integrations).
- Strategically manage the Founder's calendar and preparation for high-stakes interactions, supported by an Executive Assistant for routine administration.
- Partner with HR on organizational design, culture scaling, and onboarding to support hyper-growth.
Communication & Culture
- Manage communications from the Founder's office, ensuring consistency, clarity, and mission alignment.
- Translate technical strategies (AI capabilities, data governance) for non-technical audiences, building buy-in across clinical and commercial teams.
- Collaborate with the Founder to embed company values—innovation, empathy, and execution—through growth phases.
- Coordinate with external partners, investors, and regulators to amplify organizational impact.
Qualifications & Experience
- 6–10+ years in high-growth tech, healthtech, or consulting environments.
- 3+ years in strategy, operations, consulting (e.g., MBB/Tier-2 firms), or Chief of Staff roles, with proven executive advisory impact.
- Experience directing cross-functional teams and leading strategic initiatives to completion.
- Extensive UAE work experience required.
- Bachelor's degree in business, healthcare, or related field; MBA or advanced degree (e.g., Healthcare Administration, Public Health) highly valued.
- Consulting background preferred.
- Deep healthtech/digital health exposure, including AI/ML in clinical settings and regulatory/ethical nuances, preferred.
Skills & Competencies
- Exceptional communication ability to distill complex ideas (technical, clinical, financial) into clear, persuasive narratives for diverse stakeholders.
- Strategic execution with track record of turning high-level goals into measurable plans, strong analytical and prioritization skills.
- Technical fluency: comfort discussing product roadmaps, data architecture, and AI ethics without deep coding expertise.
- Resilience and extreme ownership; thrives in fast-paced ambiguity with calm under pressure.
