3 weeks ago


Leeds, United Kingdom University of Leeds Full time

Are you passionate about science and making a difference to medicine and health? Could you provide a professional, laboratory support service to staff working in ground breaking research and teaching whilst working towards a formal qualification? The Scientific Operations Team are committed to providing responsible and flexible teams to support academic priorities. You will join a team of professional laboratory assistants, working closely under an experienced supervisor/manager, to provide basic laboratory support.
You will also be studying for a formal qualification as a level 3 apprentice which will account for 1 day per working week. 
The work priority is regular collection and safe disposal of laboratory waste, washing up of glass and plastic ware using machines or by hand as appropriate. The preparation and sterilisation of solutions and the use of autoclaves, setting out and clearing equipment, washing benches and keeping the laboratories tidy will also be a priority. Working as part of a team across various areas within the Faculty according to a weekly rota as directed by the Lab Assistant Manager. Other duties will include decontamination of waste from laboratories, servicing communal rooms, assisting senior staff with room/laboratory relocations, packing of dirty lab coats for laundry collection, and checking and sorting clean laundry, stock taking and ordering consumables. 
You will carry out general laboratory administrative tasks, such as record keeping and data input. You will also work flexibly and move to various areas to cover for absent colleagues and support LICAMM suites and Primary laboratory areas. 
As you will have daily contact with academic staff, support staff, researchers and students you should have an approachable and professional manner, along with good communication and team working skills. You will also need basic computer literacy and knowledge of safe manual handling techniques. It would be advantageous if you could demonstrate a little experience from within a Laboratory environment. The role will involve some moderately heavy work, but we will provide full training.
26 days holiday plus approx. 16 Bank Holidays/days that the University is closed by custom (including Christmas) – That’s 42 days a year
