  • You may be required to deputise for the Person in Charge (PIC) of the Metallurgical Laboratory facility and equipment, or a sub-area thereof.
  • Undertaking basic maintenance and calibrations of laboratory equipment.
  • Coordinating samples for analytical assays, including collecting, labelling, and shipping.
  • Ensuring the safe storage, use and disposal of chemicals in the laboratory. This includes updating COSHH records and contributing to COSHH Risk Assessments.
  • Contributing to reviewing, developing and maintaining QA/QC polices for the collection, testing and analysis of samples, ensuring proper chain of custody.
  • Developing experimental programmes to support process engineering design activities.
  • Producing technical memoranda, progress reports and technical report sections for key Project phases.
  • Undertaking sample collection, sample preparation, drying, filtration, splitting, crushing, pulverising, pelletising, pXRF testing.

What we ask you in return: You will ideally be experienced in mineral and chemical process technologies within a mining environment.

  • Have a degree level qualification in Chemistry or an earth science
  • Have experience of working in a process laboratory environment, with knowledge of inorganic chemical processes and lithium chemistries
  • Have knowledge of health & safety standards and COSHH regulations and, ideally, have a vocational health and safety qualification
  • Working knowledge of process design for mineral and chemical processes.

All roles within Imerys British Lithium require flexibility and ability to adapt. During periods of extended operating campaigns, intense activity and / or reduced staff availability, the role may be required to undertake any activities to support the project, subject to adequate competency for specialist tasks
