Ready to revolutionize healthcare, making it faster and more accessible than ever before? How we started: Founded in 2013 by Dwayne D'Souza, HeliosX was built on a simple but powerful idea: healthcare should be easier to access, faster to receive, and centred around the individual. From day one, we've grown without external funding; scaling profitably through technology, disciplined execution, and deep medical expertise. What started as a challenger idea has become one of the most significant healthcare platforms operating globally today. Where we are now: We've earned the trust of millions of people worldwide through category-leading products and well-known brands, including MedExpress, Dermatica, ZipHealth, RocketRX, and Levity. A key driver of our success is vertical integration; we operate our own manufacturing and proprietary products, led by in house medical teams, researchers, and pharmacists at the top of their fields. In 2025, HeliosX treated more than 1.7 million patients globally and reached £781 million in revenue, representing % year on year growth and cementing our position as the clear market leader in the UK. That growth translates into real world outcomes: our weight loss treatments helped patients lose 8.5 million kilograms of excess weight in 2025 alone, contributing to an estimated 1,300 fewer cardiac events. This is growth with measurable, life changing impact at scale. Today, we operate across four international markets, with successful launches in Germany and Canada and continued expansion in the US. We were also recently recognised in the Sunday Times Top 100 fastest growing tech companies, further validation of both our momentum and our ambition. Where we're going: 2026 is a step change year. Our ambition is to reach £1.6 bn in revenue, expand from four to eight global markets and significantly broaden our condition and treatment portfolio. Over the coming years, you'll help shape HeliosX into a truly world leading healthcare partner; one that combines scale, speed, and clinical rigour to redefine how personalised care is delivered. Joining HeliosX now means building systems, teams, and products that will define the next decade of digital healthcare, and doing work that genuinely improves lives, at global scale.

Working closely with an external design agency, you will guide web design from IWM's side and help shape a new, robust design system. Your work will directly influence how audiences understand conflict, engage with our content, and access our sites, services and collections. What You'll Be Doing: Lead UX and UI design across IWM's websites, with a primary focus on the redevelopment of iwm.org.uk . Work with an external design agency to develop and embed a new design system, and ensure it is consistently applied across all digital journeys. Create wireframes, prototypes and high-fidelity designs that are accessible, on-brand and grounded in user needs. Collaborate with Product Managers, Developers, and brand and content colleagues to deliver high quality, user centred experiences. Contribute to user research, usability testing and evidence-based prioritisation. Clearly communicate design decisions, trade-offs and insights to a wide range of stakeholders. Champion inclusive, user centred design practice across the organisation and support capability building within the Digital Engagement team. What We're Looking For We'd love to hear from you if you have: Experience designing for large websites or digital products within a multidisciplinary team. Strong understanding of UX principles, journey mapping, heuristics and user centred design methods. Ability to design accessible, visually coherent interfaces that align with brand standards. Experience working with or implementing digital design systems, ideally alongside external agencies. Good knowledge of accessibility and usability standards such as WCAG. Proficiency in Figma and experience creating wireframes, prototypes and UI components. Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to make practical decisions within constraints. Confident communication skills and the ability to explain design decisions using research and evidence.
