Senior Ops Builder
Who we are
You. Better. With Alan.
Alan's vision is to make prevention the new norm of care for all. Our mission is to help people live in good health to 100 while helping employers feel proud, turning health benefits from a cost centre into their most valuable investment.
We're building a vertically integrated health partner that seamlessly unites insurance and smart healthcare delivery into one system.
By connecting all aspects of care - private, public, and direct to consumer - we create the most member-centric healthcare experience. Through deep engagement, we empower everyone to overcome day-to-day health obstacles and live healthier lives.
We partner with 32,000+ companies of all sizes, serving more than 700K members, and have reached €500M+ in ARR.
Our team of 600 people (still growing) operates across France , Spain , Belgium , and Canada .
How we do it ?
People joining Alan are always surprised and delighted by our innovative working method. We have a set of cultural values that guide our approach to work, such as:
Members first. We put our members first, our team second, our shareholders third.
Radical Transparency. We make all choices in writing and adopt a direct and honest style of communication.
Personal & Team Growth. We are self-improving whilst helping others grow. We’re no ego-doers and we all edit the company.
Distributed Ownership. We trust our colleagues to make the right choices. We are not afraid to fail fast individually to learn collectively in the long run.
Fearless ambition. We shoot for the moon and work backwards. We focus on solving complex problems with simple principles far from ready made ideas. We embrace AI to increase our productivity and be at the forefront of technological changes.

⭐️ The challenges
We are looking for senior entrepreneurs with a strong operational background to disrupt (and not only upgrade) the way we traditionally think about insurance or healthcare, and deeply re-engineer the experience we offer to our members .
We move fast and are proud to tackle big problems! One of our core value is ownership : we expect you to tackle Company problems from end to end with a long-term focus, acting as a leader on behalf of the entire Company, never saying “it’s not my job” and being accountable for your actions.

Industrialize to reach operational excellence by building a granular understanding of our operations, tracking operational and financial efficiency, identifying risks and areas of improvement and implementing plans (automation for instance)
People growth: Coach and mentor team members helping them grow and offering the right platform to learn. As a senior member of the team, we expect you to edit the way we work and make sure team members continuously get feedback and develop new skills.
