Job description

Mission Neko is redefining what prevention means, from treating illness when it arrives, to sustaining health before it's ever at risk. Our mission: make data-driven, preventative care accessible to more people, before symptoms appear.

In a single, non-invasive visit under an hour, proprietary technology and direct clinical care combine to deliver personalised, actionable insights. It's a team that thinks in 10x, not 10%. Every role here plays a part in building a world where prevention is the norm, and where your work genuinely helps people live longer, healthier lives.

Role Purpose

This role exists to keep Swedish clinics staffed to target coverage. The Workforce Coordinator owns bi-weekly and monthly rota creation, maintains accurate schedules in the workforce management system, and produces the staffing reports that let clinic and market leadership make fast, informed decisions. The role sits within the Operations Planning function and partners directly with clinic leads on coverage, staffing, and labour metrics.

What You'll Deliver in the First 6-12 Months

Own accurate, on-time bi-weekly/monthly rota publication for all assigned Swedish clinics, with late changes, swaps, and backfills handled without service disruption.
Establish daily tracking of open shifts and coverage gaps across assigned clinics, with escalation to bank pools and agency partners triggered before gaps affect throughput.
Administer Quinyx (locations, roles, templates, policies, leave rules) for assigned clinics and configure at least one automation that measurably reduces manual admin time (Tech-enabled, human-centred).
Deliver a reliable weekly staffing pack (coverage %, overtime, additional hours, tardiness, utilisation, variance vs plan) that clinic and market leadership use to make staffing decisions.
Reduce payroll queries and adjustments through cleaner timesheet reconciliation and consistent HRIS-to-payroll data flow.

Minimum Qualifications

Experience in scheduling/rota coordination, clinic operations, or workforce administration.
Comfortable in Excel: filters, lookups, pivot basics, conditional formatting; able to analyse CSVs and spot anomalies.
Hands-on experience with a WFMS/scheduling system (e.g. Quinyx, Deputy, UKG, Rotageek) or a strong, demonstrable appetite to learn one fast.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English.
Demonstrated ownership of detail-heavy, deadline-driven admin work (the “last mile” that keeps a rota accurate).

Preferred Qualifications

Multi-site healthcare or shift-based operations background.
Direct Quinyx experience specifically, rather than an adjacent WFMS.
Prior exposure to payroll reconciliation or HRIS-to-payroll data flows.

Products & Services

[The Neko Health Scan]: A 60-minute, full-body health check that captures millions of data points across the skin, heart, blood, and circulation using four proprietary devices (Derma, Spectrum, Echo, and Neko Lens). Includes an unrushed consultation with a doctor where results are discussed immediately. The scan is priced at approximately 2750kr (~$260) in Sweden and is designed for asymptomatic, healthy individuals looking for prevention.

Market Standing

Valuation/Market Cap: Not publicly disclosed (as of mid-2026).
Key Metric: Total Funding – $325.1M (one prior funding round).
Notable Investors/Partners: Backed by “investors who have built and scaled some of the most ambitious technology companies of the last two decades” (individual names not publicly listed on career page). The company has strong ties to the tech and startup ecosystem.
Growth Signals: Over 1,000 employees (more than half in clinical roles). Aggressive expansion with active clinic locations in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Stockholm, and plans for more. Job postings have increased +344.4% year-over-year (as of mid-2026), indicating rapid scaling.

Competitive Advantages

Proprietary Hardware: All four scanning devices are designed, engineered, and assembled in-house in Stockholm, creating a hard-to-replicate technological moat.
Integrated Clinical Model: Unlike traditional clinics or digital health apps, Neko combines its proprietary hardware with on-site doctors, clinical researchers, and data science under one roof with a low patient volume per doctor ( ~9 members/day vs. 30+ in standard care). This enables a focus on prevention, not just treatment.
Data Moat: The system captures millions of structured data points per scan, allowing for peer benchmarking and longitudinal tracking over years, creating a powerful, network-effect dataset for preventive health insights.
Leadership: Co-founded by Daniel Ek (Spotify) and Hjalmar Nilsonne.

Strategic Focus

Scaling the Scan Room: Neko is actively testing a second-generation modular scan room platform designed to capture more signals and scale to new locations.
Global Expansion: Opening new clinics across the UK and Europe, with a clear intent to make the service more accessible.
Clinical Research & Governance: Continued focus on validating their devices with clinical studies and building a clinical leadership team (including ex-NHS and Amazon Health executives) to establish preventive care as a formal clinical discipline.
