A bit about the team!

Our team is made up of British doctors, several pharmacists, a community pharmacy team, web design and development team and the marketing team. The full team looks after our UK service started back in 2013. We are looking to grow our team over the coming year with content marketers, graphic designers, doctors and a new office space. We don’t work with any hard and fast rules, so this is your opportunity to show us what you are made of and you are a good fit for us and vice versa. However, in a fast paced business things are changing all the time and we want someone who will muck in and help us out in other areas where we need support. We don’t believe in notion people can only be productive stuck in an office all day, so most of our team works remote. If your brain is most creative sitting in the park with your MacBook getting a tan, then come forward! because we want creativity regardless of how you achieve it.
