Description

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. Our recruitment process runs through four stages and we interview on a rolling basis. Each stage has its own purpose. As we have grown, we have made each contact point based on candidate feedback, making sure you actually get a helpful insight into Cyted. We want to give you the most open & true snapshot of us no matter the role. Initial conversation – Run by Maddie from our People team, this is a relaxed online chat so we can learn more about you and your background, and so you can learn more about us too. Line manager interview – This online chat explores the role in more detail through scenario-based and role-specific questions to see how you would bring your skills and knowledge into Cyted. Team interview & assessment – To meet the wider team and see how we work in-person, we like to involve a panel of team members to listen to your ideas in either a presentation or assessment format. Final Interview – Marcel, our CEO, still speaks to every new potential employee. In this online meeting, you will get to discuss your goals and explore how they align with the company’s history and future vision. 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. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who thrives in a fast-moving environment and is excited by the opportunity to contribute to a growing, ambitious business. We're looking for a highly organised individual who takes initiative, works independently, and enjoys creating structure, improving ways of working, and helping the Chief of Staff ensure teams operate at their best. As Cyted continues to scale in both the UK and US, this role will offer you support with development of new skills, business exposure, and taking on increasing responsibility and ownership.

The role holder may be required to work flexibly and may need to visit other company sites when and if required. You will be based a minimum of 3 days a week at Cyted’s Office, 149 Cherry Hinton Road, Cambridge, United Kingdom, CB1 7BX. What you will be doing Executive & Leadership Support Support the Chief of Staff in coordinating the schedules, priorities and activities of the CEO, US President and wider leadership team. Manage complex calendars across UK and US time zones, coordinate internal and external meetings, prepare agendas and briefing materials, and track key actions and follow-ups. Coordinate travel, itineraries, expenses and meeting logistics, ensuring leaders are well prepared and executive operations run smoothly and efficiently. Coordination & Communication Help coordinate leadership meetings, company events, offsites and other business activities, ensuring plans are delivered smoothly and effectively. Support internal communications and the timely sharing of key information across teams, helping to maintain alignment and momentum. Build strong working relationships across the business and act as a trusted point of coordination, working collaboratively with colleagues in both the UK and US to keep priorities organised and on track. Administration & Operational Support Maintain accurate records, documents and administrative systems. Support onboarding and administrative activities for new starters, where required. Help identify opportunities to improve administrative processes and ways of working, supporting the Chief of Staff with implementation. Resolve day-to-day administrative issues and ensure tasks are completed efficiently and to a high standard. Support office management activities including coordinating facilities, supplies, and workplace services to ensure the smooth and efficient running of the office environment. Provide flexible support across the business as priorities and processes evolve within a growing organisation. Who you are? Qualifications & Experience Previous experience in an administrative, executive support, coordination or business support role, ideally within a growing SME. Experience supporting senior stakeholders, including calendar management, meeting coordination, travel, expenses and general business administration. Experience working across teams and functions in a fast-paced environment, balancing multiple priorities effectively; experience in a scaling organisation is desirable. Skills & Knowledge Excellent organisational, prioritisation and communication skills, with strong attention to detail and accuracy. Ability to manage competing demands, work independently and take ownership of responsibilities. Confident using workplace technology, including AI tools, and able to learn new systems quickly. Personal Attributes Dependable, proactive and adaptable, with a strong sense of ownership and accountability. Comfortable operating in a growing organisation where priorities, processes and ways of working continue to evolve. Collaborative, positive and solutions-oriented, with a hands-on approach to improving efficiency, solving problems and supporting colleagues to deliver high-quality outcomes. How we work At Cyted, how we work is just as important as the impact we create. Following our recent Series B fundraise and with increasing international momentum, we’re entering a defining stage of growth - and our values guide how we scale. As an Executive Associate, you’ll sit at the heart of the business, helping our leadership team stay focused on the priorities that matter most and ensuring the organisation can operate effectively as we grow across the UK and US. We care deeply about the patients we serve and the clinicians we support. In this role, care means creating the space for our leaders to focus on delivering Cyted's mission. You’ll understand that behind every meeting scheduled, every agenda prepared, and every decision moved forward is an opportunity to accelerate our impact. You’ll approach your work with attention to detail, professionalism, and a genuine commitment to helping others succeed, ensuring leaders are equipped with the information, preparation, and support they need to make effective decisions. We expect you to own your role with confidence and accountability. You’ll be trusted to manage competing priorities across multiple senior stakeholders, coordinating complex calendars, international travel, leadership meetings, and critical follow-ups. You won’t wait to be told what needs doing - you’ll anticipate challenges before they arise, identify gaps, and proactively put solutions in place. Whether it's ensuring actions from a leadership meeting are delivered, resolving a scheduling conflict, or improving an operational process, you’ll take ownership and see things through to completion. We aim high. Cyted is scaling rapidly, expanding internationally, and operating in an environment where priorities move quickly. As the Executive Associate, you'll play a key role in helping the organisation keep pace with that growth. You'll help bring structure to complexity, ensuring leaders can focus on strategic decisions while you coordinate the operational details that keep the business moving. Your ability to stay organised, prioritise effectively, and maintain momentum across multiple workstreams will be essential to helping Cyted achieve its ambitions. You'll be expected to dive deep into how the business operates. You'll quickly build a strong understanding of our leadership priorities, key business objectives, and the relationships that drive successful execution. You'll become a trusted partner to the Chief of Staff, developing an instinct for what matters most and helping ensure important initiatives continue to move forward. You'll work across teams, functions, and geographies, building strong relationships and becoming a reliable point of coordination for colleagues throughout the organisation. We encourage everyone to challenge and commit. As someone who sits close to the day-to-day operations of the business, you'll often be well placed to identify opportunities to improve how we work. We want you to question inefficient processes, suggest better ways of operating, and help create systems that support a growing organisation. At the same time, once priorities are agreed, you'll execute with pace, discretion, and attention to detail, ensuring plans translate into action. And most of all, we deliver. Success in this role isn't measured by the meetings you schedule or the travel you book - it's measured by the impact you enable. By helping leaders stay focused, ensuring teams remain aligned, coordinating effective communication, and keeping priorities on track, you'll play a critical role in helping Cyted scale successfully. Your work will help create an organisation that is more connected, more efficient, and better equipped to deliver earlier detection and better outcomes for patients. This is how we work at Cyted, and if this sounds like the environment where you'll do your best work, we'd love to speak with you.
