Brand Lead

Who we are

You. Better. With Alan.

Alan's vision is to make prevention the new norm of care for all. Our mission is to 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.

We're building a vertically integrated health partner that seamlessly unites insurance and smart healthcare delivery into one system.

By connecting all aspects of care - private, public, and direct to consumer - we create the most member-centric healthcare experience. Through deep engagement, we empower everyone to overcome day-to-day health obstacles and live healthier lives.

We partner with 32,000+ companies of all sizes, serving about 1 million members, and have reached €700M+ in ARR.

Our team of 700 people (still growing) operates across France , Spain , Belgium , and Canada .

Member & customer-led: obsessively focused on solving members & customers problems and creating the most delightful experiences.

How we build excellence — We hire the best people and give them platform to succeed

Distributed ownership: accountable enlightened despots, everyone owns their decisions and results.

Radically transparent: all information is accessible and written-first, so everyone can make the best decisions asynchronously

How we grow together — We help each other improve through honest feedback and bold thinking

Optimistic alchemy: optimists who collaborate with genuine care and support teammates.

The Brand Lead roleContext

In a context where Alan has surpassed one million members and positions itself as an integrated player in insurance, prevention, and access to healthcare—operating across four countries—we want to significantly boost our brand awareness and scale up our brand campaigns. This is why we're recruiting a Brand Lead.

We've expanded across B2C, B2B, public sector, occupational medicine, and soon adjacent segments. We want to keep working on an unified brand narrative for the company.

We're scaling fast across France, Spain, Belgium and Canada, with ambition to become N°1 health leader in Europe. To achieve this, we need a brand with a powerful positioning, that is flexible enough to work across different markets, cultural contexts, and levels of brand maturity.

We have great products to showcase with new product launches coming and a lovable brand that people trust.

We haven't done a major brand campaign since 2019.

Pillars of the role

The role revolves around four key pillars, which are as follows:

Dramatically grow brand awareness

• Great taste and vision: Has led campaigns that clearly stood out creatively, with examples of work they're proud of and can explain why it was distinctive.

Has personally owned end-to-end campaigns, from brief to post-mortem, with 1-2 concrete case studies where they can walk us through the problem, strategic choices, creative decisions, and results.

• Led large-scale above the line campaigns: Has managed at least one sizable brand campaign budget (€1m+), in collaboration with creative agencies and media agencies, that drove a measurable lift in awareness and generated disproportionate attention.

Build and organise the brand team

• Team builder and mentor: Has built brand teams before, can coach marketers, and enjoys developing people's skills.

• Operates in France, Spain or Belgium, and thinks globally: Knows our product, lives in our market, and can build relationships face-to-face with the team. Can shape a positioning and campaign approach that scales consistently across countries.
