A Day in the Life

You will assume an integral role in leading the day-to-day implementation of all commercial and corporate legal aspects across the organisation. Your responsibilities will involve delivering impactful, hands-on, and strategic guidance on legal, compliance, and business matters.


As a trusted adviser, you will provide legal counsel on business strategies, contribute to the development and execution of tactical plans, and address diverse business challenges. This encompasses formulating legal assessments and devising solutions-oriented risk mitigation strategies.


Your responsibilities will include managing the formulation and negotiation of vital commercial contracts, regulatory agreements, master service and consulting agreements, licensing and research collaborations, as well as overseeing litigation management, mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, and other strategic alliances and investments.


Furthermore, you will provide legal counsel and assistance to the Board of Directors in your capacity as Company Secretary, ensuring adherence to legislation and fulfilling reporting obligations. Your role extends to attending all Board Meetings of Genomics.

What you will need:-

  • Extensive background in creating and negotiating commercial contracts, specifically within the B2B healthcare sector.

  • Considerable expertise in developing global and region-specific business growth deals, spanning collaborations, licensing, M&A, joint ventures, supply chain, manufacturing, and distribution agreements.

  • Robust, pragmatic business insight coupled with a keen understanding of the commercial consequences of legal advice.

  • Exceptional verbal and written communication abilities, adept at simplifying intricate concepts for broad comprehension across the business. 

  • A qualified lawyer in the UK with hands-on experience serving as in-house counsel.

  • Generous Holiday Allowance: 25 days of annual leave, an additional 3-day company shutdown at the end of the year, plus bank holidays. More time for you to unwind and enjoy.

  • Invest in Your Future: Take advantage of our training and development opportunities, from regular training courses to access to a wide range of L&D materials. We're committed to helping you grow and succeed!

  • Wellbeing:  Join a company that values you at work and outside work. We offer a range of benefits, including a pension that increases every year that you work here, comprehensive health insurance for you and your family, critical illness coverage, and life insurance. We also offer enhanced paid family leave.

  • An inclusive workplace: Genomics wholeheartedly embraces and champions Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (ED&I) initiatives. We foster an inclusive environment through various means, such as our 'All in Club,' a platform where we come together to celebrate, engage in meaningful discussions, and create awareness. Additionally, we offer our 'Bank Your Bank Holiday' program, allowing you to exchange public holidays for dates that hold personal or cultural significance to you. It's our way of ensuring that every member of our community feels valued and included.

  • Charity giving: Make a difference with our payroll giving scheme. Donate to your favourite charities tax-free and help make the world a better place!
