We're looking for a motivated and hands-on individual to join a growing organisation that is passionate about developing people and providing long-term career opportunities. This role offers excellent exposure to laboratory operations and is ideal for someone who is eager to learn, adaptable, and enjoys working in a fast-paced, practical environment.
Previous laboratory experience can be beneficial, but attitude, reliability, and a willingness to get stuck in are far more important. Full training will be provided, making this an excellent opportunity for someone looking to develop a career in science, laboratory operations, or the life sciences sector.

* Assist with the receipt, logging, storage, and movement of samples and laboratory materials.
* Support inventory management and stock control activities.
* Help monitor and maintain laboratory equipment and site systems.
* Assist with routine facility checks and operational tasks.
* Maintain accurate records and documentation.
* Support purchasing and general operational activities.
* Follow quality, safety, and company procedures at all times.
* Work collaboratively with colleagues across laboratory and operations teams.
What We're Looking For
* Hard-working, reliable, and proactive attitude.
* Willingness to learn new skills and take on responsibility.
* Hands-on approach and ability to work in a practical environment.
* Strong attention to detail and organisational skills.
* Good communication skills and ability to work as part of a team.
* Adaptable and comfortable working across a variety of tasks.
* Basic IT skills.
Desirable
* Previous experience in a laboratory, warehouse, manufacturing, engineering, logistics, or operational environment.
* An interest in science, healthcare, or laboratory-based work.
* Exposure to regulated or quality-driven environments.
What's on Offer?
* Structured training and development.
* Opportunity to build a long-term career within a scientific environment.
* Exposure to laboratory operations and regulated processes.
* Supportive team culture with genuine opportunities for progression.
* A varied and hands-on role where no two days are the same.
