Full job description

Department

The Centre of Excellence for Anaerobic Digestion (CEAD), based in the Department of Biology at the University of York, is a collaborative research centre that combines microbiology, molecular biology, engineering, and environmental science to transform organic waste into clean energy and valuable resources. We specialise in sustainably transforming underutilised waste into industrial products supporting energy, food security, and renewable industrial growth. By working closely with industry, CEAD develops practical innovations that improve anaerobic digestion technology and contribute to a more sustainable, low-carbon future. You will join a vibrant, multidisciplinary team dedicated to delivering solutions for a greener world.

The Department of Biology is recognised as one of the leading and most accomplished departments at York, with a global reputation for excellence in both teaching and research. We are committed to fostering a supportive environment where staff and students can thrive, contribute their best, and achieve their full potential. We take great pride in holding the Athena Swan Gold Award.

Role

We are looking for a skilled technician to provide technical expertise and perform laboratory work for CEAD’s expanding commercial research portfolio and industrial microbiological solutions. You will manage day-to-day experimental workflows, maintain equipment, support sample processing, and prepare risk assessments for review. Core activities include operating fermenters/anaerobic digesters, feedstock characterisation, DNA extractions, and product separation. This role offers an exciting opportunity to engage with industrial clients and gain exposure to cutting-edge technologies while collaborating closely with academics, researchers, and students.

This role is fixed term until 31 July 2029.

Skills, Experience & Qualification needed

An HNC, HND, or undergraduate degree, or an equivalent level of professional experience
Practical experience within a microbiology or biochemistry laboratory, including proficiency in some related analytical methods e.g. DNA extractions, chromatography and spectrophotometry
A strong working knowledge of laboratory risk assessments, COSHH regulations, and adherence to standard operating procedures
Demonstrated ability to collect, organise, and present experimental findings for inclusion in technical documentation
The capacity to work effectively both on your own initiative and as a collaborative member of a team
A reliable and self-motivated approach, with the interpersonal skills required to engage successfully with both academic colleagues and industrial partners

Interview date: To be confirmed
