Fullstack Developer
BelleVie’s vision is to build a society where everyone feels valued and supported. A society which values fulfilling careers in care, so every member of the care ecosystem is supported through meaningful, reciprocal relationships.
We are treating the root causes of the care crisis, through a radical new way of working which is built on strong communities, thriving relationships and better outcomes for all.
BelleVie’s innovative model of delivering care was inspired by the success of “Buurtzorg” in the Netherlands, which successfully revolutionised community nursing. It’s based on small self-managing teams and ways of working which empower and value care workers. It’s the care world equivalent of shifting from Waterfall to Agile delivery methods. Our NPS of 90%+ for three consecutive years proves that it’s working! But new ways of working need new digital tools. That’s where you come in.
