Job description

🐼 Who we are

Alan is Europe's fastest-growing health insurer, on track to become a global healthcare giant by 2030.

We empower 1m+ members across 35,000+ companies, generating €780m in annual recurring revenue. Our latest round valued Alan at €4bn+, with world-class investors backing us.

Our vision: make prevention the new norm of care for all.

Our mission: 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.

Our approach: build the vertically integrated payor and provider, uniting full-stack insurance and smart healthcare delivery into one seamless system. We are the ultimate one-stop health partner for people and companies.

Our team of around 700 people (still growing) operates across France 🇫🇷, Spain 🇪🇸, Belgium 🇧🇪, Canada 🇨🇦. And now, we’re launching in Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 — one of the most dynamic healthcare markets in the world, set to double by 2030 under Vision 2030.

⭐️ General Manager (GM) Associate - KSA ⭐️

As the KSA GM Associate, you will be the General Manager's right hand in building and scaling the Saudi business from the ground up. This isn't just a job - it's a once-in-a-career opportunity to be employee #3 in what could become the region's leading health partner.

You will support execution of our strategy in the short term while helping build our long-term vision, ensuring alignment across the KSA team. You will benefit from support, resources, and expertise from the global Alan platform.

Your mission

You'll own high-impact work across the business - strategy, operations, growth, partnerships, team building. You’ll wear many hats (we can’t list them all), but your core missions include:

Owning end-to-end execution of strategic initiatives - from market research and strategy definition to go-to-market execution and operational setup. You'll lead the full cycle with accountability for results.
Building the business from scratch - you'll move fast through customer discovery, partnership development, process building, and team scaling.
Working closely with the GM associate as well as an Ops builder to define the right strategy and execute it.
Integrating the Saudi business into our global operations - work cross-functionally with teams across 5 countries to leverage Alan’s proven playbook while adapting for Saudi’s unique market dynamics.
Leading through influence and clarity - you'll communicate strategy and trade-offs clearly, keeping stakeholders aligned across time zones and functions. You'll write strategy docs, business plans, and updates that help teams make decisions autonomously.

You may be a great fit at Alan if you have

2-4 years of experience building businesses or driving growth in management consulting, investment banking, M&A, or as an operator at a high-growth startup/scaleup, or founder.
Fluency in Arabic and English (written and spoken).
Based in Saudi Arabia and open to working from Riyadh, with a deep understanding of the local market, culture, healthcare landscape, and business environment.
Strategic thinking with hands-on execution: you define strategy and inspire teams while also getting into the details, from running customer meetings to building financial models to negotiating partnerships.
Strong organization, time management and autonomy: you are well-versed in missions requiring precision and reliability. You are able to manage a project from start to finish with minimal external assistance.
An entrepreneurial mindset: you\'re comfortable with ambiguity, take ownership beyond your job description, and find creative solutions to hard problems.
Mission-driven: you have the will to challenge the status quo and transform the healthcare industry in Saudi Arabia.
(As a plus) Knowledge of French, experience with international teams, or track record in scaling organizations/healthcare/insurance.
