Product & Customer Operations Manager

About the Company:

Prema Cognition (PREMAZ) is a health technology company developing tools for the early detection and monitoring of cognitive decline and dementia. Founded by medical doctor Julia Cooney and developed in collaboration with the University of Cambridge Memory Lab, PREMAZ aims to shift dementia care from late-stage treatment to earlier detection and prevention.

Our core product is a precision memory assessment, a scalable digital cognitive test designed to detect subtle changes in cognitive function and track them over time.

PREMAZ works with a range of partners across healthcare and research, including neurology and GP clinics, longevity clinics, pharmaceutical and biotech research organisations, and care providers such as nursing homes and assisted living facilities.

PREMAZ is venture-backed and recently closed its first external funding round to support the next phase of product development and clinical partnerships.

The Role

We are looking for a Product & Customer Operations Manager to sit at the centre of the company and act as the bridge between our customers and engineering team. The primary focus of this role is product management and delivery coordination, ensuring that customer insights are translated into product improvements and that the engineering team remains aligned. You will help prioritise feature development, coordinate product delivery, and support the ongoing evolution of the PREMAZ platform.

A secondary part of the role involves working with customers using the platform, helping gather feedback, troubleshoot issues when needed, and ensure successful deployments. These interactions will play an important role in informing product decisions and identifying opportunities for improvement.

This is a high-ownership role in an early-stage startup, where you will have significant influence over how the product evolves. The role would suit someone currently working in product, product operations, or customer success who is ready to step into a role with more significant ownership and direct impact on the product. You will work closely with the founding team and engineering team to help shape how PREMAZ develops as we scale.
