Role Purpose

We're building a dedicated delivery team around one of our most important partnerships, and we need an experienced Project Manager to make it work.

This is a client-facing role with the feel of a consulting engagement. You'll set up and embed a multidisciplinary team, then coordinate delivery across our various internal functions

A Day in the Life

  • Building and running the integrated delivery plan for the account: milestones, dependencies, risks and resourcing.
  • Bringing together the right people from across Genomics and getting a new team working as one, fast.
  • Running the delivery rhythm with our partner, including status meetings, reporting and a clear route for escalations.
  • Working with Finance on budgets, forecasts and commercial milestones, and with Legal on scope and contract changes.
  • Spotting blockers early and clearing them before they slow the team down.
  • Keeping senior stakeholders on both sides informed, aligned and confident.

Who You Are

  • A project manager who has delivered consulting-style projects for life sciences clients (pharma, biotech or healthcare).
  • You've set up and embedded a team with a client to deliver a large project, rather than only managing internal projects.
  • You've worked in a scale-up and know how to build structure where there isn't much yet.
  • You're comfortable working across Engineering, Finance, Legal and People stakeholders, and can translate between them.
  • You're highly organised, a clear communicator, and ready to hit the ground running.

Compensation & Growth

  • Competitive Reward: Salaries are externally benchmarked annually to ensure market-aligned compensation.
  • Clear Career Path: A straightforward, open progression framework means you'll always know the path to promotion and how to achieve your next career goal.
  • Continuous Learning: Including external courses and a wide library of L&D materials, because your growth is our success.

Wellbeing & Time Off

  • Holiday: 25 days annual leave, plus bank holidays, plus an extra 3-day company-wide shutdown at year-end (pro rata for fixed-term contracts).
  • Financial & Health Security: Robust benefits including a market-leading pension scheme, comprehensive private health insurance for you and your family with NO excess, critical illness, and life assurance.
  • Enhanced Leave: Enhanced paid family leave to support all new parents.

Work Environment & Culture

  • Hybrid Working
  • Truly Inclusive Time Off: Our 'Bank Your Bank Holiday' program allows you to exchange public holidays for dates that hold personal or cultural significance to you.
  • Vibrant Social Culture: From regular Town Halls and team picnics to organised sports events, our social committee ensures frequent opportunities to connect and celebrate.
  • Green Commute: Cycle-to-Work scheme and convenient office locations near major transport hubs.

Location: London (Hybrid) Employment Type: Full time Contract Duration: 6 months fixed-term
