Datavant

Becoming a member of the Datavant team 18 months ago, I could not have anticipated the personal and career growth that has been made available to me in that time. I have grown more since joining Datavant than at any other point in my career.

The belief and trust in me ability shown by my line manager has played a huge part in allowing me the opportunity to work autonomously. I feel that my opinions are valued, my work is appreciated and I'm consistently excited for my next project or initiative.

Ensuring that a company is fully committed to the positive wellbeing of their employees is crucial. I believe that Datavant works hard to provide a healthy, happy working culture that allows everyone to feel that they have the support they need, along with an excellent healthcare benefits package, together with a caring, kind and thoughtful team.

Personal growth is a staple of working at Datavant, and my managers have exemplified this part of our culture. I've had numerous feedback sessions with valuable information to help me improve toward goals I've set for myself. Being at Datavant has helped me understand my impact, where I want to go in my career, and how I can get there.

Datavant is using technology to connect data and make a meaningful impact to patients' lives. Our work in the UK is directly tied to the use of medical data to power a number of patient applications and patient-centered research.

We're a product-driven company that works to incorporate customer feedback to quickly delivery on super cool use cases that are brining more data to clinical research.

My opinions are heard through various channels by peers, cross-functional teams, and leadership. Regular team surveys are taken and management react to the findings and often implement changes where needed. I also have a voice in meetings regardless of what seniority of person is in attendance, it feels quite a flat structure during discussions.

Company vision and goals are talked about regularly to help make them clear, the mission is inspiring itself as it has the opportunity to advance healthcare data, healthcare innovation, and do to it faster. The mission feels inspiring as colleagues and customers both seem excited by our mission when it's talked about.

"Smart, nice, and gets things done" is what DV look for when hiring and current employees are also expected to show these values. You can't only be smart and getting things done, you need to do it with respect for your colleagues and customers. When working with different teams across the organisation, people have always been supportive in helping me move myself and projects forward.

Datavant has an open and collaborative culture and operates like a start up in the sense that if someone has a good idea they are encouraged to pursue it with no red tape. I have found the right mix of "throw you in the deep end" and mentorship

When I joined datavant I had a mostly operations background – i quickly working on cross functional projects and now have experience in product and engineering. Because the company is growing so quickly, it's not just that career growth is encouraged, but is actually an expectation

"no brilliant jerks" is part of the hiring mentality and it shows. I feel like there is an expert in everything I could want to know about healthcare or technology somewhere in the company and I'd be totally comfortable scheduling some time with anyone to ask them questions or chat about their work
