Join Synnovis at a pivotal point in the transformation of genomic medicine across South East London.
We are building a future-ready Genomics service that combines a new enterprise LIMS, an in-house Whole Genome Sequencing capability, purpose-designed laboratory facilities and redesigned end-to-end pathways. This is an opportunity to lead a nationally significant programme that will improve patient safety, reduce manual working, strengthen auditability and create the platform for future growth and innovation.
As Genomics Programme Manager, you will provide strategic leadership across digital, scientific, operational, infrastructure and commercial workstreams. You will shape the roadmap, direct project managers and specialist leads, manage major dependencies and investment, and bring together Synnovis, NHS Trusts, the South East Genomic Medicine Service, NHS England and our delivery partners around a common set of outcomes.
- Oversee implementation of the enterprise Genomics LIMS, including Epic Beaker and Projodis integration, migration, testing, validation, cutover and legacy-system decommissioning.
- Oversee establishment of the WGS service, including Floor 7 construction and fit-out, equipment, operational modelling, pathway design and validation/verification for safe go-live.
- Direct multidisciplinary project managers and workstream leads across clinical, scientific, digital, IT, estates, quality, training, communications and commercial activity.
- Own programme-level planning, risks, issues, dependencies, change control, assurance, executive reporting and decision-making.
- Manage significant budgets, business cases, funding conditions, contracts, suppliers and benefits realisation.
- Ensure compliance with patient-safety, ISO 15189, UKAS, NHS England GMS, UK GDPR and DSPT requirements.
- Lead operational readiness, adoption and transition so that new systems, facilities and services are sustainable in business as usual.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
