Founded in 2024, Univa is on a mission to address the devastating impact of eating disorder conditions on the individual as well as their families by creating solutions that sustainably reduce the condition’s morbidity and mortality rates worldwide.
Our vision is to build and validate the best outcome-focused eating disorder solution that empowers healthcare systems to sustainably deliver exceptional care.
Eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of all mental illnesses. Over 30 million people in the US and 7m people in the UK will experience an eating disorder in their lifetime and latest figures suggest 1 in 5 children worldwide are at risk of developing an eating disorder such as bulimia, anorexia, or binge eating. Over the last 5 years there has been a 121% and 84% increase in eating disorder hospital admissions in the US and UK respectively, with hospital stays commonly lasting between 3 and 4 months.
Eating disorder services today are largely inaccessible, overburdened, costly and significantly struggle in delivering a high quality service and acceptable outcomes for individuals and their families. New effective tools for healthcare teams to better manage, monitor and treat eating disorders are desperately needed.
We are passionately and diligently working with all stakeholders to solve the eating disorder system crisis. With our solutions that transform healthcare systems, we are paving the way for a universal healthcare structure that enables anyone, anywhere, from any socioeconomic background to access high quality eating disorders care when they need it and through a channel they want to access it.
The co-founders of Univa, Rich Andrews and Jose Santos, are experienced entrepreneurs who have successfully developed and implemented solutions that combine technology with clinical science and data in solving significant healthcare pain points.
This is an exciting opportunity to join an innovative company that is revolutionising how eating disorders care is delivered. We believe what's integral to the success of Univa is creating a supportive, diverse and empowered team that is constantly curious and courageous in their work. A team with unwavering energy and passion that faces challenges in pursuit of doing what is right for transforming a healthcare system that is fit for tomorrow’s society.
We are looking for outstanding candidates who are ready to be part of an early stage company that is at the cutting edge of change within the health sector. Joining the Univa team gives you the opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of people impacted by eating disorders all while achieving your career ambitions.
