Sound like you? Keep reading.
At Semble, we are on a mission to enable health professionals to amplify their impact. We improve the way healthcare is delivered to millions of people by providing doctors and their teams with powerful, innovative, intuitive, and secure software. Our cloud-based clinical system is already used by thousands of clinicians, making their lives easier and saving them money, while structuring their health data to help research.
We are a passionate and driven team, proud to unite under strong cultural drivers:
- Impact – We do work that matters.
- Collaboration – We are in it together.
- Human touch – We care deeply.
We are also quick to embrace new technologies: we have rapidly adopted AI internally, and we are always looking to work with people who are excited to augment their work with AI.
This role can be fully remote in the UK and France (with occasional travel to our London or Paris offices). We are unfortunately not able to consider candidates located outside these locations at this stage.
What you will be doing
When 16,000+ healthcare professionals trust us with 9 million+ patient records, every action matters. Data protection and compliance are fundamental to our mission of amplifying the impact of healthcare professionals.
As Compliance Manager, working closely with our Head of Compliance and our General Counsel, you'll play a crucial role in upholding the standards that keep our patients, clients, and business protected.
- Safeguard sensitive healthcare data and enable safe, compliant growth: Ensure we operate under strict regulatory frameworks across the UK, France and Ireland, including UK and EU GDPR, clinical safety standards, ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials+, FR HDS, and the NHS Digital Data Security and Protection Toolkit
- Develop and maintain compliance documentation: Create and improve policies, procedures, and frameworks that keep pace with our growth and evolving regulatory landscape
- Contribute to risk management and assurance: Maintain our risk register, conduct Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs), and work with internal and external auditors to ensure our compliance position remains strong
- Manage critical data protection processes: Handle data subject access requests (DSARs), complaints, and queries, ensuring we respond to patients and healthcare professionals with care and in line with our legal obligations
- Act as a trusted compliance advisor: Translate complex regulatory requirements into practical guidance for product, engineering, and commercial teams, helping them move quickly while staying compliant and maintaining up-to date knowledge of compliance or regulatory changes on the horizon
- Embed a culture of compliance across the entire company: Design and deliver training and enablement programmes so that everyone at Semble - from engineers to client-facing teams - understands that protecting the confidentiality, availability and integrity of personal data is everyone's responsibility
- Support clinical safety initiatives: Contribute to ensuring our platform meets the rigorous regulatory standards expected in healthcare and directly impacts patient care
