Laboratory jobs in United Kingdom

Closing date: 08 December 2025

King's College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is part of King's Health Partners Academic Health Sciences Centre (AHSC). It is one of the UK's largest and busiest teaching hospitals with a turnover of nearly £1 billion, 1.5 million patient contacts a year and more than 12,600 staff based across 5 main sites in South East London and Kent.

The Trust provides a full range of local hospital services across its different sites and specialist services from King's College Hospital (KCH) site in Camberwell, the Princess Royal University Hospital (PRUH) site in Bromley, Orpington Hospital, and some services at Beckenham Beacon and Queen Mary's Sidcup.

The Trust is recognised internationally for its work in liver disease and transplantation, neurosciences, cardiac, haemato‑oncology, fetal medicine, stroke, major trauma, and Emergency Department.

Applications are invited for doctors with suitable experience to work as full‑time Pre‑Transplant BMT Clinical Fellows in the Foundation Trust's Bone Marrow Transplantation programme. We are looking to appoint two positions within the medical coordination team. Successful clinical fellows will receive full educational opportunities and the chance to rotate through other posts in transplantation and cellular therapy. Future research opportunities will be encouraged depending on the aspirations of the successful candidates.

Nationally the transplant team at Kings provides one of the largest services for adult stem cell transplantation, including both autologous and allogeneic transplantation for a range of haematological malignancies with a specialist interest in myeloid disorders and bone marrow failure syndromes. In addition to the Clinical BMT programme, we provide donor evaluation and collection services for Anthony Nolan Bone Marrow Trust as one of their Collection Facilities.

A significant expansion in CAR‑T work will allow the post‑holder to gain additional valuable experience in this area. This JACIE‑accredited service is led by a Transplant Director and staffed by a team of consultants and clinical nurse specialists. The post‑holder will work in a well‑established team of nursing transplant coordinators, two post‑BMT Nurse Consultants and CNS, and dedicated administrative support. Research and visiting fellows in the BMT programme participate in clinics and follow‑up of transplant patients. There is a dedicated transplant clinic once a week, a regular schedule for day‑unit reviews and a weekly nurse‑led specialist late‑effects clinic. The post‑holder will work under the supervision of the transplant director and the BMT Consultant team, gaining broad experience in all aspects of white‑cell haematology with a focus on management of pre‑BMT patients and those being evaluated for novel cellular therapies (CAR‑T). This role may also be suitable for non‑UK or non‑EEA applicants wishing to apply for Home Office Tier 2 sponsorship.
