Full Time, Fixed Term - Professional Ser

This is a 6 month fixed term role

The Faculty of Health and Life Sciences is looking to fill the vacancy of the Environmental Sciences laboratory technician in their state-of-the-art teaching labs. The successful candidate will join our small friendly team of highly skilled dedicated technicians supporting teaching in the faculty through the design of teaching sessions, preparation of materials and by helping students in their practical learning experiences.

You will primarily be involved in the Biology practicals and field trips for undergraduate and postgraduate students but may also help with chemistry-based practicals in other subjects, such as Biochemistry/Biomed and Nutrition and the maintenance of invertebrate stocks, when needed. You will play a crucial role in ensuring a safe and effective laboratory environment while promoting academic excellence and scientific inquiry among our students.

We are looking for a well-qualified enthusiastic scientist who is familiar with a wide range of laboratory techniques, and who is interested in applying their scientific knowledge and technical expertise in a higher education teaching laboratory environment. We are also looking for someone who will become a part of our small but efficient technical team, and who will be happy sharing team responsibilities, as well as bringing their unique knowledge and experience.

The minimum requirements for this post are:

HNC/HND/BSc in a relevant discipline or substantial relevant laboratory experience.
Experience in Environmental Sciences, ideally in higher education laboratory settings, combined with knowledge of analytical equipment
Experience in laboratory health and safety documentation and procedures, and ability to demonstrate an understanding of health and safety in a laboratory
Excellent communication and practical skills
Ability and willingness to work as part of a team, but also able and willing to work on own initiative and learn new skills.

How to Apply

To apply, please click the “Apply for Job” button below. You will be required to complete our online application form. Please upload your CV and a Cover Letter demonstrating how you meet the person specification.

For informal enquiries about the post, please contact: Tom Phillips ([email protected]) or Richard Smith ([email protected])

We have an extremely competitive Local Government Pension Scheme with generous employer contributions, as well as providing all staff with access to an occupational health service, financial education, and a comprehensive employee assistance helpline.

We prioritise the wellbeing of our employees - physically, mentally and financially - and we provide a diverse and comprehensive benefits package to support our team.

In addition, all employees have access to:

Discounted rates for the university sports and gym facilities
An on-site nursery (at Headington Campus; waiting lists for some ages).
Discounted travel options
TOTUM card discount scheme
Relocation scheme (for moves over 30 miles, subject to terms of the scheme)
Training and development opportunities
A connected community - Brookes have a wide variety of staff networks, which instil a sense of community and offer employees a space for support, guidance and friendship, making Brookes a vibrant and inclusive place to work.

We are committed to recruiting from the widest possible pool and welcome applications from all suitably qualified candidates who embrace our values, regardless of their background. As a Disability Confident Employer we guarantee to interview any disabled applicant who meets the essential selection criteria.
