About Valeo Health KSA
- Valeo Health is scaling rapidly, and we are looking for a high intensity, 'founder like' Category Manager to spearhead our newest health and wellness verticals.
- This is not a traditional management role; it is a hands on, end to end execution position where you will research, test, and launch products from the ground up.
The Role
- This is an onsite, 6 days a week role that requires high ownership, availability and intensity.
- You will be given full ownership of new categories, requiring you to move from deep research to MVP testing and full scale revenue growth independently.
What You Will Do
- 0 to 1 Ownership: Take total accountability for the research, development, MVP testing, and official launch of new health categories.
- Scale from 1 to 100: Once launched, own the growth strategy to scale the category into a major revenue driver for the business.
- Strategic Research: Conduct detailed market and consumer research to identify high potential opportunities in the KSA wellness space.
- Execution & Agility: Wear 'multiple hats'—from high level strategy to the granular details of product listings and logistics. You are expected to launch products by yourself.
- Revenue & Customer Focus: Maintain a sales driven, customer first attitude. Every decision should be backed by its potential for growth and customer satisfaction.
- AI Integration: Leverage LLMs (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc.) to optimize workflows, content creation, and data analysis to move faster than the competition.
What We Require
- Experience: Minimum 3 years in high growth startups with a track record in category or program management.
- Education: Minimum Bachelor's degree ideally in STEM field (Science, Technology, Engineering, or Math). A Master's degree is a plus.
- Language: Arabic speaker with fluent English (essential).
- Industry Knowledge: Experience in health, wellness, or biotech is highly preferred.
- Mindset: Extreme comfort with ambiguity and a 100% accountability mindset. You are a self starter who delivers without needing constant supervision.
- Tech Savvy: You must be 'AI native' well versed in using AI tools to increase your output and efficiency
Why Join Valeo?
- Impact: You will be at the forefront of the health tech revolution in Saudi Arabia.
- Autonomy: High degree of ownership and the freedom to build and test your own ideas.
