By connecting research and clinical care at national scale, we enable immediate healthcare benefits and advances for the future.

Our mission is to provide the evidence and digital systems so that by 2035 genomics could play a role in up to half of all healthcare interactions, whilst securing the UK’s position as the best place to discover, prove and benefit from genomic innovations. We are accelerating our impact and working with patients, doctors, scientists, government and industry to improve genomic testing, and help researchers access the health data and technology they need to make new medical discoveries and create more effective, targeted medicines for everybody.

Behind the Healthcare and Research outcomes, Genomics England delivers through designing, developing and operating complex healthcare software systems. We re on the cusp of big changes with the real prospect of genomics becoming the fabric of everyday healthcare through the lifetime - from birth to old age.

Senior Technical Product Manager

Genomics England partners with the NHS to deliver whole genome sequencing diagnostics for patients with rare disease and cancer. Each genome represents an extraordinary volume of complex data that must be analysed by Clinical Scientists across regional hubs in England to determine whether there is a genetic basis to a patient’s condition.

As a Senior Technical Product Manager, you will own and evolve data focused, backend and platform capabilities that underpin the Healthcare Genomic Service. These products are built on modern cloud infrastructure, API enabled architectures, and shared platform services, and are relied on by multiple teams across Genomics England.

This is an exciting senior role for someone who really enjoys shaping and running live systems, making complex data accessible, and understanding how platform decisions multiply value across teams. You will work closely with engineers, scientists, clinicians, and delivery partners, operating in a highly regulated environment where quality, security, and auditability matter.

• Defining product vision, strategy, and outcomes for your product area, aligned to organisational priorities.
• Setting and owning squad OKRs, translating them into clear roadmaps and backlogs that balance BAU, technical improvement, and new capability.
• Managing products across multiple stages of the lifecycle, from enhancement and scale through to maintenance and strategic migration.
• Working with technical leads to shape API enabled architectures that scale value, encourage adoption, and abstract complexity for consumers.
• Understanding and articulating the long-term and cross team impact of platform and architectural design decisions.
• Ensuring products operate effectively within regulated environments, including compliance, audit readiness, and responding to assurance activities.
• Using data and proxy metrics to measure internal or indirect value where direct user metrics are not available.
• Collaborating across squads and product areas to shape shared capabilities, reduce duplication, and enable consistent platform guardrails without constraining teams.
• Confidently managing multiple stakeholder groups, communicating priorities, trade-offs, risks, and progress clearly and pragmatically.
• Taking ownership of problems and risks, solving them quickly and decisively with input from the right perspectives.

• Proven experience product managing data focused, technical backend or platform products used by multiple teams.
• Experience owning and improving shared platform services or components as products, with clear roadmaps,…
