We are looking for caring and motivated Genomic Practitioners to work within the Clinical Genetics service. The Genomic Practitioner will take a lead in running whole genome sequencing (WGS) consent clinics, counselling patients and families specifically about taking part in WGS and obtaining blood samples.

Working within the Clinical Genetics department, the role will involve communicating with patients and their families directly by phone, video call and face to face. It will include obtaining appropriate samples for genetic testing, recording consent and ensuring the appropriate documentation is completed for WGS.

The role will also include providing education sessions to allied mainstream clinicians around consent and genomic testing, helping to upskill the mainstream workforce in genomics.
