Policy & PR Specialist

Despite healthcare spending at an all-time high, patient waiting time is getting longer, and patients aren’t accessing the quality of care they deserve. At Kry, we believe we can play a unique role in changing this. For the past seven years, we’ve been on a journey to deliver and fix healthcare, for less. We’re now looking for a Policy & PR Specialist who will play a vital role in the coming years as our ambitious plans move into the next phase. In this role, you’ll be responsible for bringing policy perspectives back into the company and analysing and recommending the policy movements and changes to help drive our future business strategy: all focused on helping patients access the right care at the right time more efficiently, at scale.

As Europe’s leading digital healthcare provider and one of the largest healthcare providers in Sweden, we believe that providing accessible and affordable healthcare has never been more important. Our vision has been consistent and clear: great healthcare for everyone. We want you to empower Kry with proactive and strong PR alongside the policy work, while building and conveying our position with the public, relevant stakeholders and policy makers. You’ll advise our team on opportunities and issues that arise at the intersection of healthcare and work cross-functionally to develop our Policy and PR activities in Sweden; devise specific communications materials and engage in face-to-face meetings with policy makers.

You are quick-witted, curious and a versatile communications talent, both excelling on a strategic level whilst loving rolling up your sleeves writing, arranging meetings and events, and engaging with stakeholders and opinion builders. You need to be comfortable with change and interested in taking on more than your core responsibilities to be successful in this role in the long run. You are comfortable with ambiguity and able to navigate across widely disparate projects and teams in a highly constantly shifting space. You will be able to think through complicated reputation challenges and how this impacts both our short term and long term brand vision.
