Lead a high-growth clinical nutrition start-up with a pathway to CEO, driving manufacturing, strategy, and global expansion.
About the Company
Nutricium Health Pty Ltd is a privately held Australian company specialising in the development and manufacture of pharmaceutical-grade clinical nutrition products for both hospital and homecare settings.
Backed by strategic international investment from Adinin Investment Holdings, Nutricium is entering a significant growth phase, with a clear mandate to scale operations, expand into international markets, and establish a globally competitive clinical nutrition platform. This investment represents a significant step toward building Australia’s sovereign capability in clinical nutrition manufacturing.
Headquartered in Sydney, with a purpose-built manufacturing facility in South Australia, the business is focused on building advanced, high-quality production capability within Australia, supporting growing demand for locally manufactured clinical nutrition solutions.
Currently in a start-up to scale-up phase, Nutricium offers a rare opportunity to join at a formative stage and play a pivotal role in shaping the organisation’s operational foundations, commercial strategy, and long-term growth. With strong investment backing, regulatory pathways underway, and ambitious expansion plans, the company is well positioned to become a leading player in the clinical nutrition sector.
Driven by a commitment to innovation, quality, transparency, and integrity, Nutricium Health is building a high-performing team to deliver meaningful impact across healthcare and life sciences, both locally and globally.
Role Overview
This is a pivotal leadership opportunity for an experienced executive to join Nutricium Health at a critical stage of its evolution, taking full ownership of the organisation as it transitions from start-up to scale-up. Reporting to the Board, the General Manager (Designate CEO) will lead the end-to-end establishment of the business, driving the development of operational systems, commercial strategy, and organisational capability from the ground up. The role requires a hands-on yet strategic leader with deep expertise in pharmaceutical or clinical nutrition manufacturing, who can oversee complex operations across production, quality, regulatory, sales, and supply chain while shaping a high-performing team and culture. With a clear pathway to CEO, the successful candidate will play a key role in positioning Nutricium Health as a globally competitive clinical nutrition business, delivering sustainable growth, building strong industry partnerships, and establishing a best-in-class manufacturing and innovation platform.
