Full job description

We are seeking a self-motivated, reliable and well-trained Genomics Assistant to join the Stem Cell Institute's Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) facility. This facility delivers the general NGS, single cell sequencing, and spatial genomics services of our researchers.

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced molecular biologist with proven skills in RNA/DNA manipulation and a working knowledge of NGS and single cell sequencing technologies.

You will be responsible for performing a variety of bulk and single cell NGS protocols, as well as spatial transcriptomics. Routine tasks will include coordinating the receipt and processing of incoming samples, independently assessing QC results, documentation of experiments, confidently choosing and performing a wide range of NGS protocols, running the Chromium X, Visium Cytassist and the Xenium, general lab maintenance, liaising with customers about their results, submitting samples for sequencing and detailed record keeping.

You will have a degree or equivalent in a subject area such as molecular biology, genetics or biochemistry, and extensive knowledge and practical experience of a wide range of conventional and single cell NGS technologies. You will have superior laboratory skills in molecular biology with some experience in troubleshooting and optimising experimental protocols.

You will be comfortable working in a service role and maintaining a core facility lab, and have a good understanding of the latest spatial transcriptomics developments. Experience in supporting a variety of research projects in a support role or core environment is important, together with the ability to quickly learn and independently apply new techniques after initial training.

You will have demonstrable organizational, documentation and time management skills, and the ability to communicate clearly and effectively with all levels of staff. The ability to work well both independently and with others as part of a team is essential.

Prior experience of cell culture or histology would be advantageous, but experience in stem cell biology is not necessary.

This is a full time role for 36.5 hours per week.

Please ensure that you outline how you match the criteria for the post and why you are applying for this role on the online Application form.

Please include details of your referees, including email address and phone number, one of which must be your most recent line manager.

The interview date for the role is 17 or 18 September 2026.

Please quote reference PS50607 on your application and in any correspondence about this vacancy.
