  • Work collaboratively with other support services to deliver integrated and efficient support.
  • Act as a specialist assessor for biological safety and, in partnership with the compliance team, perform audits, compliance monitoring, inspections, and investigations.
  • Support managers to ensure health and safety compliance in relation to statutory and regulatory requirements, as well as identifying areas for improvement.
  • Support and advise users on health and safety compliance in new labs and refurbishment projects.

About You

We are looking for a highly skilled and experienced Biological Safety Specialist who embodies and demonstrates our core Crick values: bold, open, and collegial. You will have a minimum of a Biological science degree or other relevant subject or equivalent technical qualification, a minimum Level 3 Health and Safety qualification, and completed Biosafety Practitioner Level 1. You will also have relevant membership of IOSH with the desire to progress to Chartered Membership.
