Director of Patient Marketing/Paid Acquisition (Remote Friendly)

Docplanner is a healthtech company on a mission to help people live longer, healthier lives.

We build technology that improves how patients access care and how healthcare professionals deliver it.

Operating in 13 countries, with more than 100 million patient visits to our websites and around 25 million appointments booked each month, Docplanner has built one of the largest healthcare marketplaces in the world. As we continue to scale, we are investing in more sophisticated growth capabilities using data, technology, automation and AI to evolve how people discover, choose and book care across our markets.

Joining Docplanner means becoming part of a company with meaningful scale, bold ambition, and the opportunity to help shape how a leading international healthtech business grows in the years ahead.

Mission

Define and scale Docplanner’s paid patient acquisition capabilities across markets. This role will own strategy, innovation and performance across paid channels, helping strengthen our marketplace, support doctors and clinics in reaching more people, and unlock new growth opportunities through modern marketing, automation and AI-enabled systems.

Why now

Docplanner has reached a point where investing in world-class patient growth capabilities is a natural next step. With a strong market presence, a growing performance marketing business, and continued investment in new ways to create value across our ecosystem, we see a clear opportunity to build a more sophisticated in-house approach to paid acquisition.

At the same time, AI, automation and marketing technology are rapidly reshaping how high-performing teams operate. We believe this is the right moment to build stronger internal capabilities that combine performance, experimentation, technology and scale — and to set a new standard for how patient growth is driven in our sector.
