Co-ordinating daily activities of Laboratory Technicians including adjustment of duties in line with available resources and changing priorities
Undertaking regular checks, including safety and quality checks, to ensure laboratory is maintained as required, Ensuring compliance to ISO 9001, 20387, HTA Governance

Is this you?

To be successful, you will have:

Experience of managing a team of lab technicians
BSc in a relevant life sciences discipline or equivalent laboratory experience
Experience of using a LIMS product or equivalent complex information system supporting scientific work
Knowledge of automated liquid handling systems, including troubleshooting / process development
Proven ability to communicate effectively with staff at all levels

Working hours are 35 hours. Supervisors work 5 days out of 7 as part of a 7-day operational environment. This role is primarily onsite, with some flexibility to work from home where business needs allow. Located in Greater Manchester, supporting both laboratory operations and Manchester Science Park activities.
