## About this role.

I quit medicine because I kept watching patients die needlessly, for avoidable reasons. In almost every case, the medical knowledge and clinicians were there. It was the system that failed: the way information moved, decisions got routed, and fragmented teams and data turned solvable problems into tragedy.

I started [Anima](https://jobicy.com/company/anima.md) to change that.

Our mission is human wellbeing, and we believe personalised medicine will transform it. Our founding insight is that getting there requires a system that learns continuously from care and its outcomes, optimising for human wellbeing. Building that learning engine is the opportunity at the heart of Anima.

We’re now in 1,000+ clinics across 5 product lines, serving more than 25% of the UK population. We are cash flow positive, growing fast, and have a tight crew of ~45 people who care deeply for each other and the mission. Everyone has real ownership and a voice in decisions.

Multiple trillion-dollar companies will be built in healthcare over the next two decades. We intend to be one of them.

If you want to work on problems where the stakes are high, you belong at Anima. Your work here will save lives.

### Assurance Lead

Healthcare organisations need confidence that the technology they use is clinically safe, protects patient data and can withstand serious scrutiny. At Anima, assurance is not a box-ticking function: it shapes how we build, earn customer trust and bring our technology to more clinicians and patients.

We’re looking for an intellectually sharp, pragmatic assurance leader to build and own this function.

### What you’ll do

Shape product decisions. Work closely with Product and Engineering to understand how Anima operates, identify risks early and translate clinical, regulatory and data-protection requirements into practical decisions.

Build the assurance function. Own the systems, documentation and processes behind customer and product assurance—including DPIAs, clinical-safety documentation and customer assurance materials. Turn fragmented work into a dependable, scalable function.

Lead external assurance. Build trust with ICBs, clinical directors and other healthcare leaders. Explain complex issues clearly, handle challenging questions credibly and support important commercial conversations.

### Who we’re looking for

*

Demonstrates exceptional critical thinking and systems-level judgement.

*

Can understand complex products and work credibly with Product and Engineering.

*

Has built or substantially improved a function, system or operating process.

*

Can distinguish material risk from process for its own sake.

*

Communicates with authority in difficult customer and stakeholder conversations.

*

Thrives in ownership, ambiguity and a fast-moving technology company.

Experience in high-performing medtech or healthtech organisations—particularly those working with the NHS—would be especially valuable. Experience in clinical safety, data protection, DPIAs or healthcare assurance is useful, but we care more about your ability to think, learn and build than whether you have owned every framework.

This is a hands-on individual-contributor role with significant ownership. Success means assurance is embedded in how Anima builds, customers trust our answers and teams can move quickly without compromising safety or patient trust.

### What we offer

We are exceptionally selective about who we hire at Anima. As a consequence, we are very generous with our team about the benefits we offer. Anima should be where you do your life’s very best work.

Competitive compensation and meaningful equity. 25 days leave plus 8 UK public holidays with flexible additional time off. Private health insurance covering medical, dental, vision and mental health. 12 weeks maternity leave at full pay (rising to 24 weeks after 2 years), 4 weeks paternity at full pay. 4% employer pension contributions with full salary sacrifice and 100% NI savings passed to you. $1,000 annual learning budget. Gym subscription matching up to £50 per month. High-spec MacBook plus home office budget. Two full-team off-sites per year (we’ve previously gone to Mykonos, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Florida). Hybrid from Farringdon, at least 2 days a week in person.

### What we offer

Anima should be where you do your life’s best work. We support that with:

*

Time off: 25 days’ annual leave plus 8 UK public holidays, with flexible additional time off.

*

Health cover: private medical, dental, vision and mental health insurance.

*

Parental leave: 12 weeks’ maternity leave at full pay, rising to 24 weeks after two years; 4 weeks’ paternity leave at full pay.

*

Pension: 4% employer contributions, with salary sacrifice and 100% of the employer National Insurance savings passed on to you.

*

Learning: £1,000 annual budget for your development.

*

Fitness: gym subscription matching up to £50 per month.

*

Equipment: a high-spec MacBook and a home office budget.

*

Time together: two full-team off-sites each year, previous destinations include Mykonos and Mexico.

*

Farringdon office: a beautiful new London HQ, with most of the team together at least twice a week.

Everyone is welcome at Anima. We strongly believe in building a diverse and inclusive team. If you’re excited by our mission and believe you could do this work well, we’d love to hear from you, even if your experience doesn’t match every point above. If adjustments would help you participate fully in the interview process, please let us know.

Sample interview questionsHow would you build an assurance function for a fast-growing healthtech company?I would first map the product, data flows, clinical workflows, customer requirements, and existing controls. I would prioritize material risks, establish clear ownership and lightweight evidence standards, then create reusable assurance artefacts such as DPIAs, clinical-safety documentation, and customer response packs. I would measure success by faster, more consistent assurance decisions and increased customer confidence.

How do you distinguish material risk from unnecessary process?

I assess the potential impact on patients, privacy, service continuity, legal obligations, and customer trust, alongside likelihood and the effectiveness of existing controls. I focus effort where a failure could cause meaningful harm or block adoption. Controls should be proportionate, understandable, and demonstrably useful rather than documentation for its own sake.

Describe how you would work with Product and Engineering on a new high-risk feature.

I would engage early to understand the intended user, clinical context, data processing, failure modes, and dependencies. Together, we would identify risks, agree on mitigations, document decision rationale, and define evidence needed before release. This collaborative approach keeps assurance integrated with delivery rather than becoming a late-stage approval gate.

How would you handle a challenging assurance conversation with an NHS customer or clinical director?

I would prepare a clear account of the product, controls, evidence, known limitations, and mitigation plans. During the discussion, I would listen carefully to the underlying concern, answer directly without overstating certainty, and translate technical detail into patient-safety and operational terms. If an answer requires follow-up, I would commit to a specific owner and timeline.

What would your priorities be in your first 90 days at Anima?

I would learn the product and customer landscape, review existing clinical-safety, privacy, and assurance materials, and identify the highest-risk gaps. I would establish a risk-based operating model with Product, Engineering, and commercial teams, then deliver a small set of high-value improvements such as a customer assurance pack and consistent assessment workflow. I would also build trusted relationships with key internal and external stakeholders.
