About the Role As a Senior Medical Laboratory Scientist, you will play a central role in supporting the clinical reporting of our genetic tests, from analysing results and interpreting findings to drafting clear, accurate clinical reports. You will also take ownership of implementing and managing workflows, as well as contributing to assay design and development. This role calls for someone who thrives in a collaborative, multidisciplinary environment. You will work closely with clinical, bioinformatics, and laboratory teams, and will need to navigate competing priorities with professionalism and precision.
