Otta's take

Xav Kearney headshot

Xav Kearney

CTO of Otta

Communication between patients and nurses/doctors has typically happened via telephone call or post. This outdated technology is costly and doesn't provide a great experience. Accurx solves this problem with its communication and collaboration platform.

Accurx is building tools that allow GPs and other healthcare providers to communicate more efficiently with their patients and with each other in order to deliver top-quality care. Its products are now used in over 95% of GP practices. This is testament to the value of Accurx's platform.

Since raising considerable funding, Accurx has been focused on growing its team and developing its products, including batch messaging between clinics and patients, to help care sites ease the burden of long wait lists and understaffing. With these challenges continuing to mount for the health system, Accurx is likely to remain in high demand for the foreseeable future.

Diversity & Inclusion at Accurx

  • Each health system is made up of a diverse workforce, serving 100% of the population. We are building for them, not us. We can only transform health systems if we build a diverse team, rich with different backgrounds, opinions and personalities.
  • We particularly welcome applications from those who are significantly underrepresented in the technology sector, such as women, trans people, non-binary people, people with disabilities and people from black and underrepresented ethnic communities.

One of the finest onboarding experiences with proactive communication through the process. I was sent a personalised presentation deck with granular level details of my offer and some of the positive feedback people had written about me following my interviews. The wonderful company handbook really helped me get a feel for the company culture and expedited my settling in process. The new joiner survey was special! They gave me the option to choose my preferred tech (i.e. top-spec laptop, ergonomic chair and keyboard etc.), my dietary preferences (including the free food items I would like stocked in the kitchen/pantry on a daily basis). This was truly a masterclass in onboarding where I truly felt that the company cared and was ecstatic about me joining them!

Product

Thoughtful onboarding

Sep 2021

AccuRx offers some of the best and most thoughtful benefits across the tech startup space. Plenty of thought has been put into employee happiness and wellbeing. A few relevant examples are the 28 holidays in a year (in addition to bank holidays and 1-month unpaid leave), flexibility to work from anywhere in the world for 2 weeks in a year, unlimited use of the full-time mental wellbeing therapists, free lunches that are healthy and eaten together on the company dining table, pet-friendly office, the £500 wellness budget. The best example is probably the companies decision to offer all employees a £15 contribution towards all late-night travel (following an office party or just work).

Focus on employee wellbeing

Sep 2021

The leadership team call itself the B-team and call everyone else at the company the A-team. That in itself should tell you a lot about the leadership and culture at accuRx. They genuinely care, are humble and are extremely empathetic about the people at accuRx. Jacob has a powerful vision for the company, which is seriously inspiring and worth dedicating a part of your life to. In addition, there is plenty of transparency across all aspects of the business (including funding and the future of the company), which shows the level of trust they have in each team member.

Nov 2020

There's such a variety of challenge with the work here. Since I began we've gone from needing to quickly iterate and reach product market fit to focus on scaling concerns as we've seen up to 5x and 10x increases in the usages of our services.

Software Engineering

Challenging work

Nov 2020

I love working for accuRx because our product is the default in primary care. It's a position of huge trust and responsibility which has meant we've been able to put tools on doctors hands just as they've needed them. For example in the lead up to the first Coronavirus lockdown we released a feature to enabled doctors to carry out video consultations just as it was needed and which undoubtedly saved lives and reduced the spread of the virus.

My manager is so supportive and understanding - it's very easy to have open discussions or make any suggestions for improvements because of the type of environment created from the start. My manager and the rest of the team went through great lengths to make sure I was onboarded and settled in at accuRx.

When you go on a user test session and you have the user thanking us for the job we are doing and they will just explain how much our tools help them in their daily routine.

When I joined, I was given a brief of issues that would be good to solve, but it was made clear that this was a continuing conversation to be had, and I am currently exploiting the autonomy to learn and help with things (e.g. data science) outside my day to day responsibility.

Software Engineering

Autonomy

Nov 2020

As an engineer I have really appreciated the importance given to reviewing each others code to a level that I hadn't encountered in my previous experiences. On top of that, I've been loving we get to work on tasks that go beyond engineering, such as participating in user research, design processes etc.

As a non-binary trans and neurodivergent person, I generally expect to not be terribly included in a company's culture. Surprisingly at accuRx I am very much made to feel included, valued and supported! We are still really white in general as a team but I know the company cares a lot about improving diversity as much as possible.

Whether it's an afternoon talk around the experience of trans people and healthcare, or hosting programming classes for women, the company's commitment to fostering an inclusive environment shines through, and we are always pushing to make sure there is as much diversity of thought as possible - a recent example being hiring 2 software engineering apprentices.

Diversity is a priority

Nov 2020

We value a range of opinions on each topic and although we don't seek consensus on every decision, everyone is entitled to speak their mind without fear of reprisal.

We've still a long way to go, but is clearly a priority when hiring and creating clear path pathways for progression internally.

accuRx is trying to change the entire way healthcare is delivered, that gets me out of bed in the morning!

Inspiring mission

Nov 2020

We get feedback from our users every single day about how our product has fundamentally changed the way they work. It's so rewarding to know that the work you do is contributing to making healthcare workers' lives easier and therefore improving the patient experience. I haven't had a single case of the Sunday blues since I joined.

Everyone at this company cares so much. The leadership team put a lot of effort into the culture and that trickles down through management. I feel like I can be completely honest with my manager and that things actually happen off the back of our 1-1s, which is not a given in most companies.

Supportive management

Nov 2020

I get on with everyone in the company and we have managed to maintain our culture and energy despite doubling in size over the course of just 9 months. We have weekly "Show and Tell" and every week I'm astonished at how much the team has achieved across so many different areas.

I love working for accuRx because my work is helping change the way patients access healthcare in the UK. We are all patients, the products we build will directly help our family and friends, not to mention the extremely hard working staff within the NHS.

I have never worked in a more supportive, friendly and interesting team! What stood out to me when I joined and still does is how approachable everyone is. You can never ask a silly question!

Diversity is hugely important at accuRx. We are building products that are used by an extremely diverse workforce and the entire UK population could benefit from. Having diversity of opinions, experience and interests allows us to build and maintain an amazing team, that intern allows us to build amazing products :)

Intelligent people

Nov 2020

We're able to see the impact of our work every single day. We make sure we stay really close to our users, they join company-wide calls each week and hearing them talk about how accuRx has changed their professional lives or that losing us would be like 'losing an arm' makes you feel very proud and lucky to work for such an inspiring company.

I've worked in other places where this has been talked about from a leadership team, but not ever actually seen in practice... that's quite the opposite at accuRx. Being open and honest and having a culture of giving and receiving feedback means that we're constantly striving for improvement and we're able to help each other grow and learn. Every week we can anonymously post questions to our CEO & CTO, but most people choose to do this in the session together as there are no 'out of bounds' topics.
