Living With (part of the Agentis Health Group)

Living With is a remote patient management and rehabilitation solutions provider which makes it easy for healthcare providers to remotely assess, manage and rehabilitate more patients, in less time, across 20+ conditions and for patients to manage and control their own health outcomes.

Living With works with 40 NHS Trusts, multiple ICB’s as well as a number of private clinics, to help them grow their patient capacity and reduce their waiting lists, providing a single SaaS platform for personalised virtual care. The hospital doesn’t need 100s of apps: it can do everything through the one platform and one Living With patient app.

Living With are also the creators of the UK’s leading paid medical app, Squeezy, (pelvic floor exercise adherence app).

Our Living With condition management platform motivates patients and clinicians to work together to find the smartest treatments with the best outcomes for each individual.

By working together, we want to help save time, reduce waiting lists, prevent symptoms from escalating and create better personal outcomes. This role is for a highly skilled Lead Developer to play a crucial role in overseeing our software development projects while ensuring compliance and maintaining high-quality standards.

Living With are seeking a Lead Developer to guide the software development team on its journey to further develop the software to provide for additional condition, integrate with other providers and platforms including the NHS and to continue to build market leading software which gives patients the ability to have more control over their outcomes.
