We’re looking for a people-focused and data-driven Operations Team Manager to join Second Nature's Specialist Weight Management Service (SWMS).
At Second Nature, we’re on a mission to eradicate obesity and type 2 diabetes by combining science, clinical rigour, and personalised member experiences.
We're now the UK's largest digital-health provider to the NHS, having been running for over 12 years.
After many years of loss making, we've been profitable and sustainable for the last few years, allowing us to make better medium and long-term decisions for the product, internal systems, and our team. It's an exciting and positive time to be joining the company.
As part of the Specialist Weight Management Service and wider operations team, you’ll design and embed the systems and processes that enable us to scale high-quality health coaching for our NHS and private services.
If you’re a confident, thoughtful leader with experience building and managing high-performing teams, a genuine passion for health and wellbeing, and a drive to make meaningful impact, we'd love to hear from you.
We have a very high-performing team at Second Nature. We'd describe the culture as a blend of:
People who are smart, kind, and fun
People who take the work seriously, but don't take themselves seriously
People who are very mission driven
People who do what's best for the company
Second Nature is very fast paced, with minimal bureaucracy. It’s chaotic and it feels like there are always fires burning. But things get done quickly. Some personality types thrive in this environment, and some don’t.
If you're excited by working with a team where everybody is genuinely excellent, Second Nature could be a great fit for you.
Summarised in a recent 2026 quote from a team member: "Everyone has a strong work ethic, works really hard and genuinely cares about the work they do. That’s a lovely and inspiring work environment to work in where everyone around you is so passionate about what they do."
What you’ll do
Lead and support our SWMS practitioner team: Manage a multidisciplinary team of remote healthcare practitioners, including dietitians, nutritionists, and psychological wellbeing practitioners, creating a culture of trust, accountability, and continuous improvement.
Ensure operational excellence: You’ll simplify complex workflows, reduce friction for your team, and use data to design smarter, more efficient ways of working.
Build out data dashboards and reporting: You’ll create and maintain dashboards that provide clear visibility of key performance metrics, automate where possible, and make data accessible and easy to understand.
Drive service mobilisation and development: Partner cross-functionally with Operations, Product, Quality, Engineering, and NHS Partnerships teams to mobilise new specialist weight management services, develop operational processes, and successfully transition services from implementation into sustainable BAU delivery.
