In their own words

About the company & team

The Departments of Laboratory Haematology and Clinical Biochemistry are spread across 4 sites at 3 hospitals in Oxford and Banbury, and the successful candidates would work as part of a team at the Banbury site of the Trust.

The Departments are both UKAS and HCPC accredited.
