Full job description

We are seeking a motivated and collaborative individual to join our team as a Research Technician to provide specialist technical support for research programmes investigating the vascular mechanisms of dementia and other brain disorders.

This role offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to internationally recognised research by undertaking and optimising laboratory experiments, supporting the operation of advanced research equipment, and helping generate high-quality experimental data. Working closely with researchers, students and technical colleagues, you will play an important role in supporting safe, efficient and effective laboratory-based research, within a dynamic and inclusive environment.

You will be responsible for:

Supporting research animal model maintenance and undertaking microdissection of arteries.
Performing and optimising experimental protocols, including antibody-based imaging using confocal and super-resolution microscopy.
Undertaking pressure myography and calcium imaging of small arteries, and supporting staff and students with standard laboratory protocols.
Training junior technicians and PhD students in relevant laboratory techniques, including myography.
Maintaining accurate records, supporting data preparation for presentations and publications, contributing to experimental design, and ensuring work is carried out in line with health and safety, data protection and University requirements.

We welcome candidates who bring diverse perspectives, experiences, and approaches to their work.

About You

We encourage applications from individuals with a wide range of backgrounds and experiences. You should demonstrate:

Essential Criteria:

A relevant biological sciences qualification, or equivalent qualifications and substantial experience working in a research laboratory.
Extensive hands-on experience of small artery physiology and immunohistochemistry in a laboratory-based dementia research setting.
Strong organisational skills, with the ability to manage a complex workload, prioritise competing demands and work to deadlines without direct supervision.
Excellent communication, analytical and problem-solving skills, with a high level of accuracy, attention to detail and reproducibility in laboratory work.

Desirable Criteria:

Experience using Word, Excel and PowerPoint, with experience of ImageJ and/or IMARIS also beneficial.
A flexible approach to working hours where required to monitor procedures or experiments.

We value transferable skills and real-world experience as much as formal qualifications.

Our benefits include:

Generous employer pension contribution
Christmas closure across all departments outside of annual leave and bank holidays
Purple Place employee discount platform

For more information, please see University of Manchester Benefits. You can also find information on our Flexible and Hybrid working here.

We are an open place of enquiry and challenge. We embrace and celebrate difference, diversity and debate, and we pride ourselves on being a place of education, learning and community where we are able, within the law, to question and test received wisdom, express new ideas and explore controversial or unpopular topics and opinions.
