We’re Cyted - a pioneering gastrointestinal health diagnostics company enabling more patients early access and detection for esophageal cancer and Barrett’s esophagus.
Our technology brings a minimally invasive diagnostic approach to market - our EndoSign test combines a swallowable pill-like device with advanced biomarkers and analytics to help detect disease earlier and faster.
What started as an idea between a health-tech entrepreneur and leading clinical scientists at Cambridge University has quickly grown into an international company operating across the UK and US, backed by investors such as EQT Life Sciences and a $44M Series B investment.
But we still work like a startup - because we are one.
Things move quickly here and we build as we go. Some days you’ll be solving problems first of their kind with innovative approaches. Other days you’ll just need to roll your sleeves up and get things done.
That’s the reality of building a company that’s growing fast and trying to genuinely change patient outcomes.
We’re a small, highly collaborative team, which means your work matters. We have the trust and belief from our investors so you won’t disappear into layers of hierarchy or spend months waiting for decisions. If you have a good idea, we want to hear it, regardless of your role or title.
We like people who are curious, adaptable, thoughtful, and always willing to learn and improve. This isn’t a polished corporate environment where everything already exists. We’re building processes, teams, products and ways of working in real time. Every day is different.
If the idea of helping build something ambitious from the ground up excites you - and you want your work to have a real-world impact on people’s lives - we’d love to hear from you.
Our recruitment process runs through four stages and we interview on a rolling basis. Each stage has its own purpose.
As we have grown, we have made each contact point based on candidate feedback, making sure you actually get a helpful insight into Cyted. We want to give you the most open & true snapshot of us no matter the role.

At Cyted, how we work is just as important as the impact we create. As we continue to grow across the UK and US, our values shape how we work together and how we build our business. As our Administrative Coordinator, you’ll play an important role in helping the organisation run smoothly, supporting our Chief of Staff and leadership team while gaining exposure to every part of a fast-growing international healthcare company.
We Care. We care deeply about the patients we serve and the colleagues we work alongside. In this role, care means helping others do their best work. Whether you’re organising a meeting, coordinating travel or supporting an important project, you’ll approach every task with professionalism, attention to detail and a genuine desire to help the team succeed.
We Own. We’re looking for someone who takes pride in their work and follows things through. You’ll take responsibility for your tasks, stay organised, communicate clearly and use your initiative to solve problems. As your confidence grows, you’ll be encouraged to take on increasing responsibility and become someone others can rely on.
We Aim High. Cyted is growing quickly, which means every day brings new opportunities to learn. You’ll be part of a business where priorities move fast, no two days are the same and you’ll gain experience that most early career roles simply can’t offer. We’ll support you to develop new skills and grow alongside the company.
We Dive Deep. We want you to understand how the business works, not just complete tasks. You’ll build relationships across teams, learn how different functions work together and develop a strong understanding of what helps our business succeed. The more you learn, the more opportunities you’ll have to contribute.
We Challenge & Commit. Fresh perspectives make us better. If you see a simpler way of doing something or spot an opportunity to improve how we work, we want to hear it. We encourage everyone to share ideas, and once a decision is made, we work together to deliver it.
We Deliver. Success in this role isn’t measured by the number of meetings you organise or emails you send. It’s measured by the difference you make. By helping the business stay organised, supporting your colleagues and keeping priorities moving, you’ll play an important role in helping Cyted grow and deliver earlier detection and better outcomes for patients.
If you’re organised, ambitious and excited by the opportunity to learn, we’d love to hear from you.
