An opportunity has arisen for a HCPC state registered Clinical Scientist with good interpersonal skills to join the Clinical Genomics department. The Clinical Genomics laboratory at the Royal Marsden is part of the North Thames Genomic Laboratory Hub (NT GLH), one of seven national Genomic Laboratory Hubs offering Cancer Genomic testing in England. The department is located in the Centre for Molecular Pathology in Sutton. The Centre for Molecular Pathology is a state-of-the-art facility bringing together translational science and molecular diagnostics. It is one of the few specialised laboratories in molecular diagnostics of cancer in Europe.

The range of tests available will be in continuous development and the post holder will be responsible for standardisation of new technologies and tests for molecular diagnostics. The post holder is expected to liaise with clinicians, oncologists and histopathologists responsible for treating patients.
