Lister Fertility Centre at The Portland Hospital, London

Competitive salary + excellent benefits
We’re looking for an IVF Lab Administrator to join our IVF and Clinical Embryology Team based at the Lister Fertility Centre within The Portland Hospital. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone keen to build a career within embryology and reproductive medicine, offering valuable exposure to one of the UK’s most respected fertility services.
The Lister Fertility Centre is internationally recognised for excellence in IVF treatment and reproductive science. Working closely with embryologists, clinicians, and nursing teams, the laboratory plays a critical role in delivering safe, compliant, and highly personalised fertility care. This role sits at the heart of the laboratory, ensuring its smooth day-to-day operation and supporting the delivery of exceptional patient outcomes.
As an IVF Laboratory Administrator, you’ll play a vital role in supporting the embryology laboratory through high-quality administrative coordination. From managing treatment documentation and regulatory reporting to supporting the movement of reproductive samples across the UK and internationally, no two days will be the same. This is a role where attention to detail truly matters, offering hands-on insight into embryology processes and a genuine pathway for those looking to progress within fertility services.
Above all else, we’re committed to the care and improvement of human life. It’s this guiding vision that influences everything we do at HCA UK. From the CEO to colleagues on the lab floor, we all have a part to play in delivering exceptional care. Others may see this as an administrative role within embryology, but to us, you’ll be part of a wider team with a unique sense of purpose — helping to change lives every single day.
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.
