About Us
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.

Job Summary
As the Executive Associate, you will provide administrative, operational and coordination support to the Chief of Staff, helping to maximise the effectiveness of the CEO, US President and wider Executive Team.

As Cyted enters an exciting phase of growth - accelerating commercialisation in the US while delivering our biggest year yet in the UK too - you will play a key role in helping the business operate efficiently and effectively across both markets. You will coordinate schedules, meetings, travel, communications and day-to-day executive operations internationally, ensuring leaders are focused on the highest-value activities and that key priorities continue to move forward at pace.
