2 days ago


south east england, United Kingdom HERlab Full time

HERlab – a revolutionary AI and synbio startup for recombinant protein production – is hiring a Senior Technician,  starting in late January/February 2025.
FTC, full-time role for 12 months, with further extension possible.
You’re an experienced lab technician with at least 2 years of post-degree experience and a solid track record in running a lab. This includes skills in inventory management, ordering, writing SOPs, managing health and safety, setting up experiments and equipment (like buffers and media), and keeping good notes.
-You’re looking to move into a lab manager role rather than scientist or researcher positions.
-While you’ll be setting up exciting experiments, you’re also ready to handle practical tasks, like washing that pesky glassware, to keep the lab running smoothly.
-HERlab is an extraordinary once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to 1) reduce the suffering of millions of lives–both human and animal–via climate impact and reduction of intensive farming; 2) help create one of the greatest scientific discovery platforms in the world; 3) get enormous returns from the effort we put in to building it – all at once. If you are highly motivated to change the world, talented, and willing to pioneer turning science into real-world solutions – I look forward to reading your cover letter and CV, and if we match, welcoming you to our brilliant team.
Assisting Senior Scientists in the delivery of the projects.
Take full responsibility for managing lab operations (stock and inventory management, ordering, experiments set-up, etc.) and troubleshooting issues without direct supervision to maintain the working environment.
Write and follow SOPs, proactively update and improve lab standards, and processes, set up work environments and conduct relevant tests and experiments.
Understand and apply COSHH/risk assessments and health and safety protocols, ensuring lab colleagues meet safety compliance.
Maintain accurate notes and records (including digitally): reports, databases, documentation and user guides.
Actively demonstrate a commitment to professional development by advancing knowledge and competencies. We want to give you opportunities for growth within the role and for you to develop your career.
Performing and optimising transformation protocols for non-conventional yeast strains.
We will be using a code word to help fast-track applicants who have diligently read this description. A levels + substantial industry experience in lab technician roles.
-BSc (+MSc) + at least 2 years of lab-based professional experience.
-You might have a PhD and therefore lots of relevant lab-based experience - but please tell us about your motivation for this technical (rather than scientific/research) role.
-Stock and inventory management: proven experience in managing stock, inventory, and ordering processes.
Experience with SOP development and adherence while adhering to good laboratory standards.
Familiarity with COSHH standards and waste management practices.
More complex technical equipment experience is desired (cloning, purification, PCR, etc) but we’re also very happy to train the right candidate.
Confident with a variety of digital/cloud tools and willing to learn new ones. Proficient in using lab-specific software, data analysis tools (e.g., Excel, Prism), and cloud platforms (e.g., Google Workspace, MS Office).
Demonstrated experience managing hazardous substances and waste disposal protocols in line with COSHH and environmental standards.

Working experience in yeast biology.
It will be coming to our lab, so experience (or excitement to learn) is a big bonus

28 days of holiday per year.
~ Sick leave benefits.
~ We’re a small and friendly team and have a supportive work culture - so if you need some flexibility at times to deal with personal matters, we’ll support you.
~ Location: the lab is currently based on Kent University Campus. Paid parking is available if you prefer to drive, and Canterbury has excellent cycling, walking and public transport options from the city centre/train station.
