The Role

The Lab Technician will be the operational backbone of two busy research laboratories, ensuring everything runs smoothly day to day so that scientific work can continue without interruption. You will take ownership of consumables stock monitoring levels, replenishing supplies, maintaining the storeroom, and processing orders and incoming deliveries in a timely fashion. Routine equipment upkeep, including deep cleaning and integrity checks, will also fall within your remit, alongside keeping accurate maintenance records.

A significant portion of the role involves daily general housekeeping across the site, including regular use of the autoclave for waste processing. You will interact with scientists across multiple research functions every day, acting as a trusted point of contact between the lab teams and the broader operations function.

• Familiarity with H&S documentation such as risk assessments, COSHH assessments, and standard operating procedures, with any experience reviewing or managing such documentation a bonus
• Previous experience working with storeroom or inventory management systems, ideally within a research environment; exposure to a commercial ERP system such as NetSuite would be advantageous
