Prince Harry has taken on a new position at mental health company BetterUp with the Duke of Sussex becoming a senior adviser after stepping down from his previous role at the US-based firm.
The latest development was confirmed in a statement by BetterUp chief executive Alexi Robichaux, who outlined how Harry would continue working with the company in a different capacity.
The Duke previously served as BetterUp’s chief impact officer, a senior position he held after joining the organisation in 2021.
His new role will allow him to remain involved with the company while focusing on selected projects and other professional interests.
Explaining the change, Robichaux said Harry would work closely with the company’s team and some of its largest enterprise customers.
“In this new capacity, he will focus on key projects with some of our largest enterprise customers, working alongside our team and the leaders we partner with,” the chief executive stated.
The announcement also revealed that the change would give the Duke greater flexibility to pursue other opportunities beyond his work with BetterUp.
According to Robichaux, Harry will have more time to expand his investment portfolio, explore new business ventures and continue supporting charitable causes that are important to him.
The chief executive also expressed appreciation for the Duke’s contribution to the organisation since he first became involved.
“The move also gives him more time to grow his portfolio of investments, pursue new business opportunities, and continue his support of philanthropic causes close to his heart,” he explained.
Robichaux concluded his message by thanking Harry for his work and welcoming his continued involvement with the company.
“Harry, thank you for what you’ve helped build here. I’m glad we get to keep doing this work together in this new capacity,” he added.
The change marks a new chapter in Harry’s professional relationship with BetterUp, rather than a complete departure from the company.
The Duke has previously spoken about the importance of mental health and emotional wellbeing, making his involvement with the organisation a notable part of his work outside the Royal Family.
Since stepping back from his senior royal duties, Harry has developed several professional and philanthropic interests, including initiatives supporting veterans, mental health and young people.
His new advisory position is expected to allow him to maintain those interests while taking on additional business opportunities.
The announcement also comes during a period of renewed public attention on the Duke following his recent return to the UK and his engagements with charitable and military-related causes.
