This role offers excellent exposure to laboratory operations and is ideal for someone who is eager to learn, adaptable, and enjoys working in a fast-paced, practical environment.

Previous laboratory experience can be beneficial, but attitude, reliability, and a willingness to get stuck in are far more important. Full training will be provided, making this an excellent opportunity for someone looking to develop a career in science, laboratory operations, or the life sciences sector.

* Help monitor and maintain laboratory equipment and site systems.

* Assist with routine facility checks and operational tasks.

* Maintain accurate records and documentation.

* Support purchasing and general operational activities.

* Follow quality, safety, and company procedures at all times.

* Work collaboratively with colleagues across laboratory and operations teams.

What We're Looking For

* Hard-working, reliable, and proactive attitude.

* Willingness to learn new skills and take on responsibility.

* Hands-on approach and ability to work in a practical environment.

* Strong attention to detail and organisational skills.

* Good communication skills and ability to work as part of a team.

* Adaptable and comfortable working across a variety of tasks.

* Basic IT skills.

Desirable

* Previous experience in a laboratory, warehouse, manufacturing, engineering, logistics, or operational environment.

* An interest in science, healthcare, or laboratory-based work.

* Exposure to regulated or quality-driven environments.

What's on Offer?

* Structured training and development.

* Opportunity to build a long-term career within a scientific environment.

* Exposure to laboratory operations and regulated processes.

* Supportive team culture with genuine opportunities for progression.

* A varied and hands-on role where no two days are the same.
