Quality Systems Manager

About Skin Analytics
Skin Analytics is an award-winning, health tech company that works with dermatology teams to deploy world-leading skin cancer pathways using AI as a medical device, DERM.

Following our recent £15M series B funding round and regulatory milestones, we're ready to scale internationally, making history for AI in healthcare and the future of dermatology.

We're proud to epitomise AI for good - with a Class III CE mark, DERM is the only AI as a medical device approved to make clinical decisions autonomously in the cancer space, as well as being the first company to receive a NICE recommendation for use across the NHS.*

DERM is deployed at more than 25 NHS organisations where we're supporting dermatology teams to build sustainable services that enable patients to gain quicker access to skin cancer diagnosis. If that's not enough, we also collaborate with some of the largest health insurers to reach patients in their own homes.

We are a team of passionate people on a mission to build a future where no one dies from skin cancer.
