    London

    About us Hesta is creating a new benchmark in women’s health, delivering exceptional care at every life stage. As we advance towards this goal, we are committed to closing the women’s health gap, beginning with pregnancy and postpartum as our initial focus. 75 million years of women’s lives are lost every year due to poor health or early death. This gap limits potential, drives inequality, and reflects a healthcare system that wasn’t built for women. We are changing that. Hesta is building a new model of women’s healthcare, and our first mission is to reimagine care for mothers through compassionate care, clinical excellence, and technology. The Opportunity We’re looking for a GMC-registered doctor (post-F1 or equivalent) to join us as a Clinical Associate, with a primary focus on clinical reporting, data insight generation, and product development. Join us at the forefront of a new era in healthcare, where clinical excellence meets product development, agentic technology, and real-world delivery. As a Clinical Associate, you’ll operate at the intersection of medicine, technology, and systems design. You’ll use your clinical reasoning to shape how intelligent, agent-driven tools support care, working closely with product and engineering teams to build solutions that are not only innovative, but safe, effective, and deeply aligned with regulatory standards. This is more than a clinical role. You’ll help define how postnatal care is delivered at scale, translating frontline insight into product decisions, ensuring operational feasibility, and embedding quality and governance into everything we build. If you’re excited by the idea of influencing care beyond the bedside, designing systems, improving outcomes, and setting a new standard for postnatal care, we’d love to hear from you. This is an early role at Hesta Health, with significant opportunity to influence how our clinical model, reporting outputs, and technology evolve as we scale. It’s a role well-suited to doctors who have completed foundation training and are looking to apply their clinical skills in a systems, product, or operational role. What You’ll Do 1. Clinical reporting & insight generation • Analyse holistic patient data, including biomarkers, questionnaires, and clinical context, to build a comprehensive picture of postnatal wellbeing, • Synthesise complex clinical information into clear, structured, and patient-friendly reports that support understanding and action, • Identify results that require follow-up, escalation, or clinical review, in line with governance protocols, • Support patients with queries related to their reports within the limits of your competence, • Continuously improve report quality, clarity, and clinical robustness through feedback and iteration 1. Product & clinical data development • Work closely with product and engineering teams to design and refine how clinical data is captured, structured, and presented, • Translate frontline clinical insight into scalable product features and workflows, • Contribute to the development and evaluation of AI-enabled tools, ensuring outputs align with clinical guidelines and best practice, • Support testing, validation, and iteration of clinical reporting systems and decision-support tools, • Help define how “great” looks for clinical outputs (e.g. report quality, safety thresholds, usability) 1. Clinical operations & service design • Support day-to-day clinical operations to ensure safe, effective, and well-coordinated care delivery, • Contribute to the design and refinement of end-to-end care pathways and operational processes, • Identify gaps, inefficiencies, or risks in care delivery and propose structured improvements, • Help ensure a seamless, joined-up experience across patient touchpoints 1. Care coordination • Support coordination across the multidisciplinary team, ensuring accurate and timely information flow, • Assist with follow-ups, referrals, and pathway management, • Help ensure patients experience coherent, well-organised care journeys 1. Clinical governance & quality • Work within Hesta Health’s clinical governance framework, policies, and escalation protocols, • Contribute to documentation, safety processes, and quality improvement initiatives, • Maintain appropriate clinical judgement and risk awareness despite a non-patient-facing role, • Provide feedback to clinical, product, and operations teams to continuously improve safety and quality What You’ll Bring You’re a proactive, structured, analytical thinker who enjoys turning messy, real-world user problems and information into clear, actionable insights. You’re curious about AI and new technologies, move quickly and pragmatically, and take a solutions-oriented approach to both delivering what a patient needs right now, as well as improving how healthcare works at a systems level. You can definitely tick all these boxes: • Full GMC registration and licence to practise, • Post-F1 experience (or equivalent), • Active professional indemnity insurance, • Enhanced DBS check, • Strong clinical reasoning and the ability to synthesise complex information accurately, • Excellent written communication, with exceptional attention to detail, • Comfort working with clinical data, digital tools, and structured workflows, • Understanding of clinical risk, escalation, and governance, • Ability to work cross-functionally with clinical, product, and operations teams, • Exposure to healthcare operations, service design, or quality improvement, • Interest in AI, data-driven healthcare, or clinical decision-support tools, • Nice to have: Experience working with EHRs or data-driven systems, or experience in women’s health, postnatal care, or digital health The Practicalities • Contract: Fixed term part time (flexible), min 3 days pw. Potential to extend/move to perm contract over time (not guaranteed)., • Location: London, hybrid working (office in SW1), • Start: ASAP, • You will need to have the right to work in the UK, sadly we cannot sponsor at this time. Company Benefits • A front-row seat in an early-stage, mission-driven company to help build the backbone of a healthcare service designed specifically for women, • A central role in building a regulated, category-defining health technology from the ground up and deliver real-world impact at scale, improving outcomes for women and families, • A foundation to build the core skills required to work in digital health and/or a a fast-moving startup, • A high-calibre, mission-driven team with deep expertise across healthcare and technology, • Flexible, hybrid, working; our team work is based on the job that needs to be done, not office facetime, • Office facilities: Spacious working space, with other innovators in Victoria, bike storage, changing facilities and a healthy supply of tea/coffee We strongly encourage applications from people of colour, the LGBTQ+ community, people with disabilities, neurodivergent people, parents, carers, and those from lower socio-economic backgrounds.

    Restaurant & Bar Manager - New Opening
    1 month ago
    £30000–£45000 yearly
    Full-time
    London

    About the role We are building a new kind of hospitality space in Hackney. A curated kitchen and bar programme where chefs, bartenders and collaborators take over the space for short residencies, events and experiences. The concept is designed to constantly evolve, with a changing calendar of pop ups, dinners, tastings, private hires and social events. We are looking for a full-time Manager to help bring this space to life day to day. This is not a traditional restaurant management role. We need someone who is equally comfortable running service, managing a bar, coordinating events, hosting guests and helping shape a fast-moving programme. The right person will love hospitality, have strong operational instincts, and be excited by the idea of working in a venue where things are always changing. This role will be central to the identity of the space. Over time, we want guests to come back not only because of the residencies and events we programme, but because of the team, the atmosphere and the experience we create every week. About the space The venue is an intimate, industrial kitchen and bar in Mare Street, with a large open kitchen and counter seating at its heart. It is designed as a platform for rotating chefs, drinks-led experiences and social hospitality. The space is curated and operated by us. While the concepts may change, the guest experience, standards and overall feel of the venue remain consistent. The Manager will play a key role in protecting that consistency while helping the programme feel fresh, exciting and well executed. What you’ll be responsible for Programming and coordination • Manage the operational logistics of each residency, event or takeover from set-up to breakdown, • Coordinate arrivals, check-ins, handovers and transitions between guest chefs or collaborators, • Support the execution of the venue calendar and ensure each event is properly prepared, • Work closely with founders and collaborators to make sure concepts are launch-ready, • Help spot operational risks early and solve problems before they affect service Venue and bar operations • Oversee the day-to-day running of the venue and ensure the space is consistently set up to a high standard, • Develop, manage and continuously improve the drinks offering of the space, • Oversee bar operations, stock ordering, supplier coordination and inventory management, • Lead service during event and residency nights, setting the tone for the floor and ensuring strong execution throughout, • Take ownership of team leadership on shift, creating clear communication, strong standards and a positive service culture, • Help build and shape a small but high-performing team around the space as it grows, • Create a strong team culture centred around hospitality, accountability and adaptability, • Maintain high standards of cleanliness, readiness and compliance across the venue Guest experience and commercial delivery • Manage reservations and set up events in booking systems, • Handle private hire enquiries and support conversion where relevant, • Act as host on the floor, helping create a warm, confident and memorable guest experience, • Ensure consistency in service and atmosphere across very different concepts and residencies, • Support post-event reviews by helping assess performance, guest feedback and operational learnings Sales and cost performance • Take ownership of the venue’s day-to-day commercial performance, • Help drive sales during events through strong floor leadership, upselling and service flow, • Manage labour deployment in line with expected demand and venue targets, • Monitor stock usage, wastage and ordering to maintain tight cost control, • Track performance across sales, labour and gross margin, and flag opportunities for improvement, • Support post-event reviews with a clear view on what performed well commercially and operationally Marketing and content coordination • Coordinate photoshoots and content capture around key events and launches, • Support social media, newsletters and website updates, either directly or in coordination with external support, • Help bring ideas for events, collaborations and guest engagement, • Contribute creatively to how the space is presented and experienced What we’re looking for We are looking for someone with a mix of bar, service and events experience, who is excited by the idea of helping build something new. You likely have: • Experience managing services in a hospitality venue, • Experience managing or running a bar, • Experience coordinating or delivering events, private hires, pop ups or activations, • Confidence leading a team and running a floor, • Strong organisational skills and attention to detail, • Good commercial instincts and an understanding of how service quality drives repeat business, • A calm, solutions-focused approach in a fast-paced environment We think you’ll thrive if you are: • Energised by a constantly evolving environment, • Comfortable switching between planning, service and admin, • A strong host who genuinely enjoys people, • Interested in food, drinks and hospitality culture, • Full of ideas and excited to contribute creatively, • Able to maintain consistency even when the concept changes week to week, • Motivated by building a venue with real personality and community around it Ideal profile This role could suit someone who has worked as: • a Bar Manager looking for broader ownership, • an Events Manager with strong hospitality operations experience, • a Venue Manager from an independent restaurant, wine bar or creative hospitality concept, • an Assistant General Manager ready to step into a more entrepreneurial and varied role Other details • Full-time role based in Mare Street, East London, • Evening and weekend availability required, • Salary dependent on experience, • Opportunity to help shape a new hospitality concept from the ground up, • Target start date: April 28th About us We’re the team behind Crudo and Tiny Wine, two independent hospitality concepts we’ve built in London over the past few years. Crudo opened in 2019 and has grown into a group of restaurants built around modern Latin American food, strong atmosphere and warm, energetic service. Tiny Wine came out of our love for smaller, more intimate drinking spaces, with a big focus on personality, curation and creating a place people genuinely want to spend time in. A big part of what we’ve learnt through both brands is that people come back for more than just the food or drinks. They come back for the feeling of the place, the team behind it, and the sense that something thoughtful is being built. Studio 3 is the next step in that. It gives us the opportunity to create a more flexible space built around a changing programme of chefs, drinks, events and collaborations. A space that can evolve constantly, while still being run with a clear point of view and strong operational standards. We’re excited by the idea of building something that feels social, current and full of life. Somewhere guests want to return to regularly, and somewhere chefs and collaborators are genuinely excited to be part of.
