🧬Who we are:

Chronomics is a tech-bio company on a mission to make biology accessible and actionable to everyone.

The world is at the dawn of a ‘bio-revolution’ - with science set to transform our lives in the coming decades. And yet today, accessing biological information - and making it actionable - is complex, costly and cumbersome.

The revolution needs an engine - and we are building it. We design and deploy ‘bio-infrastructure’ across more than a dozen verticals to simplify, speed-up and scale the use of biomarkers to improve everyday decisions.

From tele-health to travel; sleep to skincare; multivitamins to managing menopause - and many others - we partner with the world’s largest and most impactful organizations, using science to transform how they diagnose, personalize and evaluate their offerings.

With global operations and hubs in the US and Europe, we’re a team that spans science, technology, supply chain, operations and commercial. We’re growing rapidly, organically and sustainably and we’re trusted by industry leaders like Superdrug, and Tui… though we’re not stopping here.

With revenue outpacing all projections and operations on three continents, we’re at a key point in our journey and we’re looking for exceptional thinkers and doers who share our mission to join us.

The role:

The Bioinformatics consultant will be responsible for maximising the biological insights we obtain from different sources of omics data, ultimately leading to the development of novel biomarker capabilities within the Chronomics bio-infrastructure that serve our partners. This is a crucial role for delivering essential Research and Development projects with big partners, combining cutting edge omics data with health insights to build and validate consumer-focused complex biomarkers of the future. Success in this role will help grow the scientific roots of Chronomics and bring novel insights, and innovation to users around the world through the wider Chronomics bio-infrastructure network. Initially this will be a 6 month contract, after completion of this time, there may be an opportunity to become a permanent employee should they demonstrate success in the role.
