Oz-UK Limited is a privately owned pharmaceutical R&D company specialising in inhalation drug-delivery technologies, including formulation development, device testing and laboratory automation. Founded in 2015, Oz-UK delivers high-quality, client-funded scientific services to pharmaceutical partners worldwide.

We are a small, friendly team where everyone plays a role and supports each other. There’s a refreshing lack of hierarchy and we understand the importance of balancing life outside of work.

It’s a varied role that is critical to keeping our operations running smoothly, from cleaning to supporting experiments. The successful candidate will be comfortable speaking to suppliers, arranging repairs and servicing of equipment, and confident to resolve issues independently. Every part of the role is important and requires dedication and attention to detail.

About You:

We are looking for a confident, proactive, and reliable individual who takes pride in being practical and detail oriented. You will be keen to learn new skills, take ownership and responsibility for maintaining site equipment, and develop a long-term career within a laboratory environment.

Essential attributes:

A ‘level/ Level 3/Degree qualification in a science subject or equivalent level experience from a laboratory setting
Keen to develop a career in science and technology
Strong attention to detail and good organisational skills
Proactive approach essential to maintaining productivity
Ability to follow written procedures accurately
Willingness to learn new techniques and equipment
Good communication skills and a team-focused approach
Commitment to laboratory safety and good working practices

Desirable:

Pharmaceutical sector experience
Pilot plant experience
Experience of working in a laboratory environment (industrial or academic)
Experience of operating and maintaining lab equipment. E.g. Fume hoods, stability cabinets, pumps, balances etc (Specific training will be given)
Work experience in any sector where problem solving and communication with customers or suppliers was an important part of the role.

Oz-UK will provide:

Training on laboratory procedures, safety and equipment
On-the-job mentoring from experienced Scientists
Opportunities to expand technical skills and responsibility over time
Enhanced pension scheme and annual leave (based on 25 days plus bank holidays).
