Senior Medical Advisor

London

We’re very proud of our achievements:

In July, we secured a $200M investment led by General Atlantic to help revolutionise women’s health, and became the first purely digital consumer women’s health app to achieve unicorn status! 🦄

We’ve had 380M+ downloads, have almost 70M monthly users, are #1 by installs in the iOS Health category, hit 4.9 stars on the App Store (3M+ reviews), are backed by 9 VCs, had a 40% revenue increase last year, and topped a valuation of $1B.

We’re a growing, ambitious HealthTech business building the essential digital health partner of tomorrow to empower women, girls, and people who menstruate with the knowledge and support they need to stay well and live better.

Our cycle, ovulation and pregnancy tracking, educational content and anonymised community platform have been trusted for years by millions to help them feel more in control of their health every day.

Now, we’re harnessing the power of data analytics and AI to build a smarter future, one where we all know our bodies better, with an aim to become the essential health partner to women worldwide.

The Job

Medical and Scientific credibility is the foundation. It’s the core of who and what Flo is. 

As a group, these teams engage thought leaders and KOLs (120+ and counting!), establish research partnerships (Stanford University, Johns Hopkins University, Northwestern University, and others), help Developers design our intuitive AI tools, check our Medical Accuracy, and drive medical credibility across the whole platform.

Flo is the first fully digital female health Unicorn, built on trust and medical credibility, and grounded in world-class Medical & Scientific expertise.

Over the years we’ve diversified our offering, branching out into holistic health and wellbeing and creating multiple category defining features around menstrual cycle tracking, pregnancy monitoring, medical and scientific education, and more recently, chat-bot-led symptom checking.

This role sits within a team of five who as a group are responsible for partnering with the Product teams developing the Health feature portfolio. The role will work cross-functionally as a key voice in the product development process, making recommendations to feature development from a user journey and medical credibility perspective, and taking a lead as the medical representative for its owned features groups.

With a host of exciting possibilities on the Product roadmap for 2025 (AI and ML initiatives, wearables, and more!), there’s a lot to get involved in, and it’s an exciting time to join.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
