Redefining Personalised Healthcare
Modern healthcare can feel fragmented — we’re building something better.
We’re an early-stage, clinician-led digital health startup delivering highly personalised, relationship-based care. Our model combines clinical excellence, technology, and a premium patient experience — bringing continuity, coordination, and compassion back into healthcare.
We’re looking for an experienced Primary Care Nurse or Nurse Practitioner to join us as a Care Navigator — a pivotal role at the heart of our service.
The Role
This is not a traditional nursing role.
As a Care Navigator, you’ll be the first point of contact for patients, combining clinical expertise with triage, coordination, and relationship-building. You’ll guide patients through their healthcare journey, ensuring they feel supported and understood at every step.
You’ll work closely with GPs and senior clinicians, while helping shape how a modern, digitally enabled practice operates.

Clinical Coordination
- Work alongside clinicians to deliver safe, joined-up care
- Escalate clinical concerns appropriately
- Maintain accurate records in line with CQC and GDPR
