We have an opportunity at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust (LTHT) for a Clinical Scientist to be part of the Biochemical Genetics Laboratory. We have funding for a 1 year fixed term contract to cover maternity leave. You will need to be HCPC registered (although consideration will be given to applicants nearing HCPC registration). The post will be based at St Jamess University Hospital in Leeds, within the wider Department of Specialist Laboratory Medicine. The Biochemical Genetics laboratory provides screening services for the Foetal Anomaly Screening Program (FASP), Newborn Bloodspot Screening (NBBS) program, and a metabolic service for the complex investigation and monitoring of inborn errors of metabolism. These are all regional services involving much interaction with multidisciplinary teams from different trusts.
The post holder will support both screening programs with daily reporting of newborn and FASP screening results, liaison with relevant clinical teams and aiding in the development of these services. They will also be able to maintain general Biochemistry skills and knowledge by participating in the Duty Biochemist rotas. The post holder will work within an established Biochemical Genetics and Screening team of staff consisting of 4 Clinical Scientists (including this post), Specialist Biomedical Scientists and HBSWs. Support and training will be provided for all aspects of the role. This is an exciting time to work at Leeds as soon we will move into the new, purpose-built Centre for Laboratory Medicine on the St Jamess University Hospital site.
