• Budget Planning & Cost Optimization: Oversee operational budgeting and cost management. You’ll ensure that resources are allocated effectively while balancing cost efficiency with high-quality service delivery.

• Reporting & Analytics: Implement and manage a comprehensive suite of KPIs related to operational performance. Use data insights to drive improvements across supply-side operations, fulfillment rates, and overall nurse satisfaction.

• Team Leadership & Development: Manage a growing team of five direct reports. You will be responsible for hiring, training, and developing the team to scale operations while maintaining high standards of excellence.

About us

Livo was born with the mission to improve healthcare globally through cutting edge technology and that has always been our North Star since we deeply believe health is the most important asset we all have as individuals. We launched last year in Spain our nursing shift marketplace whose aim is to support health care institutions with their nurse staffing needs, by matching institutions with healthcare professionals that are interested in extra work, adding transparency, flexibility and convenience to both stakeholders and its traction has been outstanding. Our vision is to radically transform the way healthcare institutions hire, retain and manage talent nowadays whilst empowering healthcare staff with more tools, flexibility, money, and recognition.
