- For decades, the NHS has struggled with fragmented systems that make simple tasks feel impossible. At , we’re changing that by building a single, system-wide platform that helps every patient get gold-standard, efficient, and joined-up care.
- What started as a way for GPs to text a patient has now evolved into an all-in-one digital toolkit used by 98% of GP practices.
- Our platform now powers Total Triage to manage patient demand, and Self-Book , which lets patients schedule their own appointments in seconds. We’ve automated routine care with Patient Questionnaires for long-term conditions, while Accumail finally allows staff-to-staff communication to happen instantly across different care settings. We’re now pushing the boundaries of the consultation itself with Scribe , our AI-powered note-taker that drafts medical notes in real-time.
- We’re not just shipping features. We’re giving clinicians their time back and ensuring every patient journey is as smooth as it should be.
- Reports to: Senior Information Security Officer
- Function: Privacy & Information Security
- Contract type: Six-month fixed-term contract
- This role works day-to-day alongside the Senior Information Security Officer, who owns the GRC framework, ISO 27001 programme, CE+ and DSPT compliance, and the security risk register. It provides dedicated capacity to push forward priority workstreams - particularly risk management, CE+ audit readiness, and data strategy delivery.
- Own the security risk register: Facilitate risk assessment sessions with technical and non-technical stakeholders across the business, keep the register current and accurate, and prepare clear risk reporting that translates technical risk into business language.
- Drive Cyber Essentials Plus readiness: Coordinate evidence gathering across IT, Platform and Security Engineering ahead of the CE+ deep-dive audit, reviewing controls against requirements and flagging gaps with practical remediation guidance.
- Deliver our data classification programme: Work with data owners to classify information assets in line with policy, and push the access control programme forward by reviewing current access patterns and identifying gaps.
- Keep risk treatment moving: Track risk treatment actions and follow up with owners so items progress rather than stall, managing milestones and blockers across the risk, CE+, and data workstreams.
- Support the wider security programme: Contribute to ISO 27001 and DSPT activities where your work intersects, including evidence collection and control documentation, and support policy and process documentation as needed.
- Be a translator between security and the business: Communicate security requirements clearly to engineers, and help non-technical stakeholders understand risk well enough to act on it.
- You have 3–5 years of hands-on experience in information security and risk management, ideally in health-tech or a regulated SaaS environment.
- You've run risk sessions, owned a risk register, and prepared risk reporting for senior stakeholders
- You've worked through a Cyber Essentials Plus audit cycle yourself
- You understand cloud infrastructure, endpoint management, identity and access controls, and network boundaries well enough to hold your own in a technical conversation - you don't need to be a developer.
- You have working knowledge of ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials Plus, and know what "proportionate" looks like in a fast-moving product company.
- You write and communicate clearly, structuring your thinking logically so people know what's expected of them and why.
- You're comfortable working at pace and without extensive hand-holding, managing your own workload and flagging blockers early.
- You care about what does, and understand that the data we protect belongs to patients and clinicians who trust us with it.
- You'll be joining an established but fast-growing Tech for Good movement, led by our Principles and our mission to solve healthcare productivity.
- £50k salary
- Benefits to suit you: adjust your healthcare cover, your pension or life insurance, whatever stage you’re at in life
- Flexible working: We are an office-first culture and ask that you’re in our (dog-friendly) Shoreditch office 3 days a week, with core hours of 10 am - 4 pm
- Time off: You’ll get 28 days of holiday (plus bank holidays) and up to 4 weeks to work from anywhere per year
- We have our very own Chef! Free healthy breakfasts, snacks and lunches will be provided, with the occasional sweet treat!
