Oxford, United Kingdom Adaptix Full time

**Description**:
**Want to be part of a team transforming healthcare?**

We are looking for an enthusiastic
**Laboratory Administrator **to join us at an exciting time as we transfer our world-leading technology from R&D to manufacture. Working within the R&D department, you will be responsible for the smooth operation of the laboratory where Adaptix develop novel, flat panel X-ray sources for mobile 3D X-ray imaging. The laboratory contains ultra high-vacuum chambers, high-voltage equipment, and X-ray imaging systems.

**The Company**

Medical imaging helps patients by enabling early and accurate diagnosis. However, 2D X-rays can be inconclusive as they give a fundamentally limited view of our 3D bodies. 3D images are possible with CT scanners but these are much more expensive, give a high dose of radiation and moving a critically ill patient to a scanner can be labour-intensive and risky.

At Adaptix we are helping make 3D imaging more accessible to the people who need it by producing mobile flat-panel X-ray systems that can be brought to patients giving low-cost, low-dose imaging.

**Key Responsibilities**:
**Main duties and responsbilities**

Lab Administration:

- Supporting the smooth operation of the R&D labs by performing routine maintenance activities of vacuum systems.
- Maintaining stock levels of lab consumables. This includes purchasing and using our Microsoft NAV Dynamics purchasing system.
- Maintaining safe working environments and following protocols to ensure compliance with company and regulatory standards.
- Administration and organisation of service providers e.g. gas bottle suppliers, health & safety services, equipment calibration providers.
- Maintaining the Equipment Database and ensuring deliveries are received, checked, labelled and logged before handing them over to the purchaser.
- Maintaining the Chemicals Database and overseeing the management of chemicals.
- Arranging internal and external PAT Testing / calibration of equipment and liaising with the Finance Team to ensure all assets are correctly logged.
- Coordinate with staff at other Adaptix sites in terms of these activities: Edinburgh, Eynsham & Harwell.

**Skills, Knowledge and Expertise**:
**Skills**:

- Ability to communicate technical requirements internally and to suppliers both verbally and in writing
- Aptitude for analysis, organisation and planning and ability to manage own workload
- Comfortable working both independently and collaboratively to support a team to achieve success
- Detail focus with the tenacity to see tasks through to their successful completion

**Experience**:

- Proven track record of working with scientific laboratory systems
- Inventory maintenance
- Working knowledge around high voltage and vacuum systems
- Chemical handling techniques
- Experience of taking ownership for and delivering small projects

This is a permanent full-time role based at our R&D site in Begbroke Science Park, Oxfordshire. Compensation is competitive and commensurate with experience.

If you feel that you would excel in this role we would be delighted to hear from you

**About Adaptix**:
Adaptix is transforming radiology by bringing to market an addressable Flat Panel X-ray Source (FPS) with integrated power supply and controls. Adaptix is a developer of addressable distributed arrays for X-ray generation.

Our patent-protected technology enables fast movement-free 3D imaging at a significantly lower dose than CT. The FPS is designed to allow 3D image formation by means of tomosynthesis using existing generations of Detectors and Workstations, allowing a system price point similar to that of current 2D systems.

Our vision is that our technology will enable 3D X-ray imaging to be cheaper, more widely available and truly portable throughout the world’s clinics and hospitals.
