Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Define and launch Neko's global brand strategy and positioning - including visual identity system, tone of voice, and messaging architecture — ready to scale across Sweden, the UK, and the US.
  • Work closely with the CMO, marketing, growth and product teams to ensure the brand narrative drives the funnel, carrying the same clarity and conviction through to search and performance marketing.
  • Lead brand strategy for the New York market entry, approaching it with sensitivity to where that market is in its relationship with preventive health - whether familiar territory or somewhere we need to bring people with us.
  • Identify the partnerships and collaborations that place Neko inside the spaces where our audience already invests in themselves, making the brand feel necessary and immediate.
  • Build an ambassador and talent strategy around the right people - not just well-known, but credible, precise and genuinely aligned with what Neko stands for.
  • Develop a social presence led by human stories: early detection moments told in the voices of the people they happened to, creating the conditions for organic advocacy that no paid campaign can replicate.
  • Make icons of Neko's clinicians - putting real faces, real expertise, and real trust at the center of the brand in an era of wellness noise and misinformation.
  • Build and hire the core brand team: brand leads, strategists, communications planners, content leads - the best people, brought together often enough to do their best work.
  • Establish brand governance and a measurement framework - tracking awareness, consideration, and sentiment.

Neko Health is a Swedish health-tech company co-founded in 2018 by Hjalmar Nilsonne and Daniel Ek. Neko's vision is to create a healthcare system that can help people stay healthy through preventive measures and early detection. This requires completely reimagining the patient's experience and incorporating the latest advances in sensors and AI. Neko has developed a new medical scanning technology concept to make it possible to do broad and non-invasive health data collection that is convenient and affordable for the public.
