As Senior Manager of Growth for Europe, you will be a key strategic partner to the European leadership team helping drive the projects, initiatives, and growth agenda that shape how Iterative Health expands across the region.

The ideal candidate brings strong analytical foundations, a genuine interest in healthcare and clinical research, and the drive to build something meaningful in a fast-moving, high-growth environment.
