Talent Partner

I quit medicine because I kept watching patients die needlessly, for avoidable reasons. In almost every case, the medical knowledge and clinicians were there. It was the system that failed: the way information moved, decisions got routed, and fragmented teams and data turned solvable problems into tragedy.

I started Anima to change that.

Our mission is human wellbeing, and we believe personalised medicine will transform it. Our founding insight is that getting there requires a system that learns continuously from care and its outcomes, optimising for human wellbeing. Building that learning engine is the opportunity at the heart of Anima.

We're now in 1,000+ clinics across 5 product lines, serving more than 25% of the UK population. We are cash flow positive, growing fast, and have a tight crew of ~45 people who care deeply for each other and the mission. Everyone has real ownership and a voice in decisions.

Multiple trillion-dollar companies will be built in healthcare over the next two decades. We intend to be one of them.

If you want to work on problems where the stakes are high, you belong at Anima. Your work here will save lives.

The role

Hiring is one of the biggest constraints on Anima’s growth. You’ll help unlock it by bringing outstanding people into the team and building the talent function that supports our next stage.

This is a chance to make talent your craft. Working closely with our founder and hiring managers, you’ll own searches and shape how we find, assess and win people. You'll have real responsibility and room to try things.

What you’ll do

• Find outstanding people. Source promising candidates and build relationships with people who aren’t actively looking.

• Make people want to join. Bring our mission to life through brilliant intro conversations.

• Own searches through to a hire. Work with hiring managers to define what we need, assess candidates thoughtfully and keep good people moving through the process.

• Create new ways to reach talent. Build communities, host gatherings, run events or try a hackathon. You’ll have the freedom to experiment and pursue what works.

• Build the engine as you run it. Develop the systems, metrics and operating rhythm that keep hiring fast, rigorous and accountable. Use what you learn from each search to make the next one better.

What you’ll bring

• A passion for talent and teams.

• High agency and drive. You have examples of going above & beyond and making something happen that otherwise wouldn’t have.

• Creative problem-solving.

• Judgement. You ask questions that get beneath the surface and distinguish a nice story from real evidence.

• Follow-through. You take responsibility for the result, including the less glamorous work needed to get there.

What we offer

Anima should be where you do your life’s best work. We support that with:

• Time off: 25 days’ annual leave plus 8 UK public holidays, with flexible additional time off.

• Health cover: private medical, dental, vision and mental health insurance.

• Parental leave: 12 weeks’ maternity leave at full pay, rising to 24 weeks after two years; 4 weeks’ paternity leave at full pay.

• Pension: 4% employer contributions, with salary sacrifice and 100% of the employer National Insurance savings passed on to you.

• Learning: £1,000 annual budget for your development.

• Fitness: gym subscription matching up to £50 per month.

• Equipment: a high-spec MacBook and a home office budget.

• Time together: two full-team off-sites each year, previous destinations include Mykonos and Mexico.

• Farringdon office: a beautiful new London HQ, with most of the team together at least twice a week.

Everyone is welcome at Anima. We strongly believe in building a diverse and inclusive team. If you’re excited by our mission and believe you could do this work well, we’d love to hear from you, even if your experience doesn’t match every point above. If adjustments would help you participate fully in the interview process, please let us know.
