Are you a passionate and proactive Biomedical Scientist ready to lead in a fast-evolving digital pathology environment?

Medica is seeking a dynamic Specialist Biomedical Scientist to join our growing Pathology team at our state-of-the-art hub in Runcorn.

🔬 About the Role

As our Specialist BMS, you’ll be at the forefront of delivering high-quality digital and glass telepathology services. You’ll manage a small but mighty team, drive operational excellence, and collaborate across departments to ensure we meet and exceed client expectations.

This is a hands-on leadership role where you’ll:

  • Oversee lab operations including specimen reception, scanning, and quality control.
  • Lead and mentor a team of Digital Pathology Assistants.
  • Ensure compliance with ISO standards (15189, 27001, 9001).
  • Troubleshoot lab issues and manage client queries.
  • Contribute to exciting projects including AI integration and wet-lab expansion.

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.
