Communications & Marketing Associate

The Mission: Why We Exist

Genomics is a science-led transatlantic TechBio combining large-scale genetic and health data with proprietary analytics to accelerate drug discovery and advance predictive, preventative healthcare. We are united by a single vision to help people live longer, healthier lives, using the power of genomics.

Genomics aims to help people live longer, healthier lives in two ways: super-charging drug discovery and development for novel treatments with our AI-enabled advanced genetic analytics platform, and by helping people understand their personal risk of common chronic diseases through polygenic risk scores - giving doctors and health systems the chance to get the right people into the right prevention, screening and treatment programmes at the right time.

 

ROLE PURPOSE

We're looking for a Communications & Marketing Associate to join us at an exciting moment of growth. This is a genuinely broad role - part content creator, part PR support, part event organiser, part campaign coordinator - and it's ideal for someone who wants to build real skills across multiple marketing disciplines, fast.

 

WHAT YOU'LL DO

You'll split your time across two senior leads - our Director of Brand, PR & Communications and our Life Sciences Marketing lead - supporting both teams with day-to-day delivery:

• Plan, schedule, and publish content across our social channels , with an eye on performance and brand consistency.

• Draft blogs, newsletters, LinkedIn posts, and email campaigns that make complex science feel human and compelling.

• Support our PR activity - media monitoring, coverage reports, press release drafts, and briefing materials for senior leaders.

• Help plan and coordinate conferences, trade shows, and webinars, including on-the-day presence.

• Assist with campaign execution and tracking across both the comms and commercial marketing functions.

• Keep our content calendar, mailing lists, and sales materials library organised and up to date.

• Conduct research: competitor monitoring, sector trends, audience insights - turning findings into useful summaries for the team.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• A strong writer - clear, engaging, and able to adapt your tone across formats and audiences.

• Digitally curious - familiar with LinkedIn and interested in what makes content perform.

• Organised and proactive - able to manage multiple tasks, meet deadlines, and know when to escalate.

• Genuinely interested in life sciences, genomics, or health technology (you don't need a science degree, but you need to care about the mission).

• A collaborative team player - comfortable taking direction from two different leads without losing initiative.

AND EVEN BETTER IF YOU HAVE

• Prior experience in a marketing, comms, or content role

• Familiarity with tools like Webflow, Mailchimp, Sprout Social, Canva, or Figma.

• An interest in media relations, events, or PR.
