Role overview
About the company
FITFILE Group Limited
Founded in 2020, FITFILE is a well-resourced data technology company with the single-minded purpose of transforming the scale and value of health data usage.
The company’s mission is to deliver safer, faster and better health data at any scale. FITFILE’s peerless combination of unique capabilities combines a decentralised approach to data access and computation with the widest possible range of privacy treatment and highly sophisticated data linkage technology. For example, FITFILE has class-leading capabilities around remote discovery of population cohorts, probabilistic linkage of clinical and non-clinical data, and internationally patented linkage of irreversibly anonymised records.
The result is a product offering that optimises privacy and data utility in a more scalable manner than legacy solutions – which in turn unlocks vastly greater data volumes on a much larger number of people for higher-quality and more actionable insights.
FITFILE’s experienced and motivated team is commercialising a suite of innovative products for life science, health system, tech and non-tech partners in the UK, Europe and beyond against limited competition. The company will be a major player in supercharging a directly addressable market estimated to grow quickly to at least £7bn in the next 5 years.
