How you'll be contributing to Accurx as a Business Development Lead...

We recognise that there is a significant opportunity to make an impact right across the NHS, in new and untapped markets.  Having secured our first contracts in Secondary Care with some of the largest NHS Acute Trusts in the country, we have ambitious plans to secure further contracts over the next 12 months, whilst at the same time developing our commercial offering.
