This will include overseeing calibration programmes and technical audits to ensure our equipment and laboratory processes continue to meet the required standards.
Health and safety will be a key part of your role. You’ll develop policies, manage risk assessments, investigate accidents and near misses, and work with colleagues to promote a positive safety culture. You’ll also lead our employee Health & Safety Committee and drive actions that help maintain a safe working environment.
