Job Title: Health Technology Lead
Location: Lagos
Job Description
- We are headhunting for an awesome individual to lead a health-technology spinoff which has its root in Lagos but expanding fast to other parts of Nigeria.
- This is essentially a project management/team coordination/technology deployment role but since it’s a project that has been spun off into a venture, I like to see the leadership as that of someone who could grow into MD/CEO.
Venture brief:
- A startup empowering bottom of the pyramid community pharmacies and local patent medicine vendors with technology tools and processes.
Role
- The role requires someone with grit, strong execution leadership skills, and proven business ethics.
- You will lead both strategy and execution for customer acquisition and retention, and overall project success and be able to roll up your sleeves when your team is underperforming.
- You will innovate on the product and services but not get distracted or buried in R&D.
- You will set up departments, assemble teams, and even dismantle them to refocus your strategy, but your timeline will keep ticking meaning you must not be a learner.
- You will hire and fire at will but all these will not matter if you fail to deliver on product usability and position the venture for more investment
So you are…
- An experienced and goal-oriented project manager with versatile skill sets to manage complex people and project
- A young professional with 3-5 years post study work experience in similar role
- Passionate about technology and love to see how much of a problem it can solve
- Someone who can build a good working culture in a young and dynamic team
- A diligent top performer who can work under senior project managers and hierarchies of leadership.
- Someone with strong report writing and proposal development skill
- A good communicator with public speaking skill
