VP of Communications

Surgo Health is building the Behavioral Intelligence layer for healthcare. We reveal why people make the health decisions they do, predict what they will do next, and help organizations make the decisions that change outcomes. A life-saving treatment does no good if people don't take it. Healthcare has built a strong layer of data that shows what happened to a patient: clinical records, prescriptions, social determinants of health. It still can't explain why people make the decisions that lead there. Surgo exists to fill that gap. Surgo is a Public Benefit Corporation grounded in two decades of global health experience. We generate foundational behavioral data and build the AI products that put it to work at population scale. Our customers include life sciences companies, health systems and payers, public agencies, foundations, and academic researchers. Our work is backed by 40+ peer-reviewed publications and trusted by partners including the Gates Foundation, J&J, Takeda, Pivotal Ventures, and the Clinton Health Access Initiative. We are a fast-growing, DC-based team with global reach, looking for people who want to help shape the future of healthcare. The Role Surgo is at an inflection point, with several products scaling, a growing footprint across healthcare, and a new category to lead: Behavioral Intelligence. Communications is central to our growth. Reporting to the CEO, the VP of Communications will own the company narrative, build the CEO's thought leadership platform, and make "Behavioral Intelligence" a term that journalists, buyers, funders, and policymakers recognize and associate with Surgo. You will work closely with the leadership team and partner with our Senior Product Marketing Manager, who leads product positioning and marketing. You own the company story, product marketing owns the product stories, and together you keep them aligned. This is a hands-on role. You will set the strategy, and you will also write the pitch, draft the op-ed, and prep executives before interviews. You will build the communications function from the ground up and do much of the work yourself, with room to expand the team as Surgo scales. #J-18808-Ljbffr surgohealth
