About Us

Hesta Health 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 postnatal 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.

Our first mission is to reimagine care for mothers and birthing parents through compassionate care, clinical excellence and technology. 

Job Description

We’re looking for a GMC-registered doctor at F3+ level or with equivalent post foundation experience to be our Clinical Operations Associate. You will support the delivery of outstanding women’s health care through clinical insight, care coordination, and operational excellence.

This is not a traditional clinical role. You’ll work behind the scenes, using your medical training to develop meaningful insights, support continuity of care, and strengthen the systems that underpin safe, compassionate, and high quality services. This role sits at the intersection of clinical understanding, operations, and technology, and is well suited to a doctor interested in digital health, systems improvement, and women’s health.

This is an early role within Hesta Health and an opportunity to help shape how our services operate as we scale. Your work will directly support our clinicians and improve how women and birthing parents experience care across the postnatal journey.

Job Type: Full time

Location: London, approx. 3 days per week in our office in Victoria
