We are looking for several highly motivated Clinical Bioinformaticians to join our expanding Bioinformatics team at the South East Genomic Laboratory Hub (SEGLH). The posts will be based at either Guy’s Hospital or King’s College Hospital, but with a planned consolidation to a hub at Blackfriars.

The posts will be part of the team supporting the clinical diagnostics services of both Guy’s and King’s College Hospitals, covering several rare disease and cancer diagnostic laboratories. You would have the opportunity to develop and troubleshoot both somatic and germline pipelines, develop and manage applications supporting the diagnostic process and manage large datasets for reporting.

The successful applicant will be dedicated and enthusiastic with knowledge and experience of working with NGS pipelines and large datasets, as well as possessing strong programming and troubleshooting experience. Applicants should be good communicators, be able to take initiative, support continual quality improvement and prioritise workload. The role requires consistent attention to detail and excellent organisational skills.

Applicants will be expected to have attained or be working towards HCPC registration. STP trainees in their final year of training, or applicants with relevant MSc or PhD and bioinformatics experience, who are interested in transitioning to a clinical setting, are also encouraged to apply.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a dynamic team which is highly valued in Synnovis Genomics. The successful candidate will support existing diagnostic services in the South East and also be involved in a very active programme of assay and technology development.

The role would involve maintaining and operating the bioinformatics pipelines for the processing of next generation sequencing data for both Guys and King’s College Hospitals, managing multiple pipelines supporting services for the Genomic Medicine Service.

The post-holders will work with other clinical scientists to support the development, validation and implementation of new/updated diagnostic tests. This will include developing and delivering validated and accredited software for delivery of diagnostic services following clinical best practice guidelines, as well as working with cloud-based infrastructure, local databases and the latest technologies to deliver bioinformatics services.

We support a flexible, hybrid working pattern. The posts will be based at Guy’s Hospital or Kings College hospital, though occasional travel to other Synnovis sites, such as other trust sites may be requested.
