Trainee Research Physician

🍊 Our mission
We're powering biology's century with radically faster, more reliable clinical trials. Every new treatment needs clinical trials to prove safety and efficacy, but today's infrastructure is stuck in the past—driving up cost, causing delays, and ultimately meaning new treatments don’t get to patients. We're fundamentally changing that—not just being a "better CRO," but transforming how people think about developing new treatments, so patients can access breakthrough treatments faster.

Our impact speaks for itself:
Since March 2021, we've powered 100+ clinical trials involving tens of thousands of patients. We recently raised a $55M Series B from Balderton Capital, alongside backing from Creandum, Firstminute, Seedcamp, and Visionaries.

🍊 What’s it like to work here?
When you join us, you’ll experience:

• High-Impact, Mission-Driven Work: Lindus Health is disrupting an outdated industry, giving you the chance to directly improve patients’ lives and see tangible results from your work.
• Fast-Paced Growth & Ownership: We recognise hard work and outcomes over anything else. You’ll take on real responsibility, work across different areas, and actively shape the company’s success.
• Collaborative, No-Ego Culture: Work with smart, driven people in a supportive and informal environment. At Lindus, we break down silos, fun is a core value, and creativity is encouraged.

Ready to power biology's century? We'd love to hear from you.
