Business Development Manager

About Us

We’re  Cyted , a pioneering gastrointestinal diagnostics company transforming earlier detection for oesophageal cancer and Barrett’s oesophagus.
Our  EndoSign test combines a swallowable capsule with advanced biomarkers and analytics to detect disease earlier, improving patient outcomes while reducing pressures on healthcare systems.

What started as an idea between a health-tech entrepreneur and leading clinical scientists in Cambridge UK, has quickly grown internationally, backed by EQT Life Sciences and a $44M Series B investment.

But we still work like a startup - because we are one. Things move quickly and we’re building as we go. Some days you’ll solve brand new problems and others you’ll roll your sleeves up and get things done.

We’re a collaborative team, so your work matters. We have our investors trust, but you won’t disappear into layers of hierarchy, waiting months for decisions. If you've got a good idea, we want to hear it - whatever your role.

We like curious, adaptable people who are always willing to learn. This isn’t a polished corporate - we’re building as we go. 
If you're excited to help build something ambitious from the ground up that makes a real difference to patients' lives - we'd love to hear from you.

Our four-stage process runs on a rolling basis, with each stage serving a clear purpose. Shaped by candidate feedback, we've designed it to give you honest insights into Cyted, whatever the role.

1. Initial conversation – A relaxed online conversation with Maddie from our People team to get to know you, talk through your experience and answer any questions you have about Cyted.
2. Line manager interview – An online discussion exploring the role in more detail through scenario-based and role-specific questions.
3. Team interview & assessment – Meet the wider team in person and see how we work. You'll complete a presentation or practical assessment so we can hear your ideas and see how you approach challenges at Cyted.
4. Final Interview – Marcel, our CEO, still meets every potential new joiner. It's an opportunity to discuss your ambitions and how they align with Cyted's journey and future vision.

Role Summary

We're looking for a Business Development Manager who's excited by the challenge of building something new and making a genuine difference to patients. 
Earlier cancer detection doesn't happen because of great technology alone. It happens because healthcare organisations trust it, understand its value and choose to make it part of everyday patient care. You'll help create and grow Cyted's commercial presence across the Southeast US, working with health systems, IDNs, academic medical centres and gastroenterology practices to bring an innovative diagnostic solution to more patients.

This is a highly autonomous, field-based role where success comes from being out in the market, meeting customers, building relationships and creating opportunities. You'll partner with clinical, operational and executive stakeholders to understand their challenges and demonstrate how Cyted can improve patient access, clinical pathways and operational efficiency. From first conversations through implementation, adoption and expansion, you'll become a trusted partner while working closely with Medical Affairs, Clinical Operations, Product and Customer Success to deliver an exceptional customer experience.

We're looking for someone who's curious, proactive and enjoys building out in the field rather than maintaining. Whether you've helped grow a territory, launched something new or are ready to take the next step in your career, you'll have the opportunity to make a real impact. Your ideas, initiative and insight from the field will help shape how we engage customers, strengthen adoption and continue growing Cyted across the US.
