This is an exciting time for both the North Thames GLH and GMSA as we are participating in several high-profile national projects and have the opportunity to participate in more in coming months under the leadership of the Informatics Director.

You will have a strong ability to think strategically about the short, medium- and long-term needs of the GLH. You will possess the ability to understand and translate how technology will enable the unique needs of the GLH to deliver genomics across our population and beyond for the benefit of patients and clinicians.
