Chef

Healthcare systems are struggling; our solution is communication. We have a bold vision: everyone involved in a patient’s care - including the patient - should be able to communicate easily with each other. And we believe every NHS staff member should be using our software to make that happen. We want to make healthcare genuinely better. We are solving one of the biggest challenges of our generation, and to do this, we need the best talent possible to help us raise the bar.

Our products are used daily by over 98% of GP practices and half of NHS hospitals, impacting millions of lives. Your role will be mission-critical and you will be central to shaping the core communication infrastructure of the NHS.

This role is primarily based in our London office, with typical hours from 6 AM to 2 PM, Monday to Friday.

The Unique Challenges You’ll Solve

• Bridging the gap between culinary creativity and operational excellence - taking ownership of administration, food safety, and budget, partnering with our current Chef to focus on the food.
• Driving 100% accuracy in dietary labelling and HACCP log completion - maintaining the highest safety and compliance standards.
• Translating all creative menus into practical, fully labelled, and accurately costed realities - auditing them for nutritional balance and comprehensive dietary coverage.
• We run a fully nut free kitchen and follow a pescatarian menu.
