Operate autoclaves for the sterilisation of media, equipment, and laboratory waste.
Maintain laboratory cleanliness through routine cleaning, decontamination, and housekeeping activities.
Support equipment maintenance, calibration, and performance verification activities.
Assist with method development, validation, and proficiency testing programmes.
Comply with all laboratory health, safety, and environmental procedures.
Provide support to the Microbiology Section Leader and wider laboratory team as required.
Undertake additional duties appropriate to the role and business needs.

Skills and Competencies

Excellent attention to detail and commitment to accuracy.
Good written and verbal communication skills.
Ability to work independently and collaboratively within a team environment.
Proficient in Microsoft Windows and Office applications.
Flexible and adaptable approach to laboratory operations and changing priorities.

Education and Experience

Degree qualified in Biology, Microbiology, Biomedical Science, or a related life sciences discipline.
Previous laboratory experience within a microbiology or scientific testing environment is desirable.
Understanding of microbiological techniques, including aseptic handling, dilutions, plating, and colony counting.
Familiarity with quality systems and accredited laboratory environments would be advantageous.
