  • Lead stakeholder review meetings to survey work in progress and upcoming forecasts
  • Contribute to process improvement efforts on every front
  • Leverage and further develop templates and scripts to streamline and automate routine operations – decreasing processing time and enabling at-a-glance summaries
  • Work with finance systems to support outsourcing activities, generating Purchase Orders and tracking invoices to provide financial snapshots

  • For BA/BS: 6 plus years of scientific-related job experience
  • For MS/PhD degree: 4 plus years of scientific-related job experience
  • Project Management experience within the science realm

  • The ideal candidate should have hands-on experience in Next Generation Sequencing and demonstrated success in supporting a high volume of active projects.
  • Experience with Data Governance and the management of restricted data is plus.
  • Coding experience (especially Python) for data reconciliation, automated checks, dashboard building etc is ideal to have.
