Job description

Why Oviva?

To build a healthier future for all! Our mission is to provide the most accessible and effective care to people living with weight-related conditions.

By blending behaviour change therapy with our unique technology and an incredible team of passionate individuals, we are creating affordable and accessible app-based healthcare programmes to tackle diet-related health conditions such as obesity and Type 2 diabetes.

Our proven strategy has helped us become award-winning and the largest digital health provider treating diet-related conditions in Europe. We operate within healthcare systems to give people access to the medical care they need. We are rapidly expanding across Europe, including the UK, Switzerland, Germany, and now Poland. You will be joining an organisation that has treated over 600,000 people to date and is continuing to scale up.

As we continue to grow, we’re looking for a Senior Legal Counsel – Healthcare Regulatory & Compliance to drive compliance, navigate complex regulatory landscapes, and support business expansion across multiple markets.

The Role

Provide pragmatic and strategic legal advice on medical law, regulatory compliance, and digital health frameworks across our core markets.
Stay ahead of regulatory shifts (MDR, IVDR, GDPR, MHRA, Swissmedic, BfArM) and implement compliance measures.
Drive regulatory approval and market access strategies for digital medical devices.
Draft, review, and negotiate high-impact contracts (clinical trial agreements, supplier partnerships, healthcare collaborations).
Develop risk mitigation strategies and support cybersecurity and data protection laws (GDPR, healthcare-specific regulations).
Act as a key representative in discussions with regulatory bodies (MHRA, Swissmedic, BfArM, Notified Bodies).
Partner with commercial, compliance, and product teams to shape innovative, legally sound solutions.
Lead internal training sessions, ensuring key stakeholders are informed on legal and regulatory obligations.
Support market expansion efforts, advising on frameworks for new jurisdictions.
