Job description

Overview

How we started:

Where we are now:

We\'ve earned the trust of millions of people worldwide through our top-selling products and well-known brands: MedExpress, Dermatica, ZipHealth, RocketRX, and Levity.

Between 2023 and 2024 our global revenue tripled; £60m to £180m (300% year-on-year growth). We\'re looking to do the same in 2025; move into new territories, and further accelerate our growth journey. There\'s never been a more exciting time to join HeliosX.

Where we\'re going:
