Job Description

At accuRx, we're on a mission to change lives by bringing patients and their healthcare teams together.

Who are accuRx?

At accuRx, we’re building the first patient-centred communication platform. Our products help doctors, nurses, pharmacists, administrators, carers and anyone else involved in a patient's care to communicate easily with patients and with each other. We believe this will transform how healthcare is delivered, improving patient outcomes, improving staff morale and increasing the efficiency of health systems.

Our products have 98% adoption in GP practices and we are investing into other areas of healthcare (hospitals, pharmacies, care homes). By making messaging easier, we’re making more of medicine asynchronous, from simple consultations to getting advice from hospital specialists, saving time and making it easier for staff to communicate.

We stay close to our users with everyone visiting a GP practice at least twice a quarter to truly understand how a practice runs, the difficulties they face with technologies and how we can help.

Although we’ve initially tackled the UK healthcare system, we have ambitions to improve healthcare systems across the world. You can view more about the impact we’ve had so far here.

Life as a Chef de Partie at accuRx

We take food seriously at accuRx. From daily shared lunches and monthly team dinners to our CEO's appearance on MasterChef and an in-house pasta club — food is in our DNA. We like to keep our team well-fed with healthy, nutritious meals, leaving our desks to eat together every day. As our business grows rapidly, we're looking for an experienced Chef de Partie to help take our breakfasts, lunches & snacks to the next level.

With no dinner service to prepare for and a 40 hour per week, Monday-Friday schedule, this role would be ideally suited to chefs looking for more sociable hours than what's usually expected - for example those who might have parenting duties or other responsibilities.

As Chef de Partie at accuRx, you can expect to:

  • Deliver the smooth running of your section on a day-to-day basis, whilst keeping high standards of food preparation
  • Preparing dishes as per our recipes ensuring consistency every time
  • Maintain a clean work area and uphold the highest standards of professional and personal hygiene

What the team say...

“We’re looking for someone to join us on our mission to revolutionise the role of food in the workplace, delivering delicious and comforting food with a focus on sustainability and low carbon practices. It’s an exciting time to join a growing team!” - Leo, Head Chef

We'd really like to hear from you, if ...

  • Have a 2+ years experience working in professional kitchens
  • Love cooking but somehow feel that traditional hospitality is not quite the way forward for you
  • Have a desire to develop your skills and learn new ones whilst working alongside a team of accomplished and resourceful people
  • You're mission-driven and care about positively impacting the lives of billions
  • You're excited by change and a fast-paced learning environment
  • You love solving problems, and relish the constant challenges a startup throws your way
  • You're an excellent communicator with the ability to translate complex to simple, bringing your ideas to life
  • When you see something not working, you'll flag it and be part of the solution
  • You share our values

Our package includes:

  • £30,000 - £35,000 salary + meaningful share options
  • £1,000 annual learning & development budget and a £500 annual wellness budget
  • Enhanced parental leave policy
  • Prayer, meditation and breastfeeding room
  • In house therapists available daily
  • Working abroad policy
  • We have our very own Chef! Free healthy breakfasts, snacks and lunches will be provided, with the occasional sweet treat!
  • And much more.
