Hyper Recruitment Solutions are currently supporting an innovative life sciences organisation in their search for a Scientific Operations Manager to join their growing team in London. This is a hybrid role, where you will be required to spend 4 days on site per week and 1 day working from home.
Working closely with senior leadership, you will lead projects focused on laboratory systems, automation, workflows and operational infrastructure, helping to build the foundations that enable world-class science.
As Scientific Operations Manager, you will take ownership of a varied portfolio of operational improvement projects across the organisation. Working closely with scientists and key stakeholders, you will identify opportunities for improvement, evaluate solutions, manage implementation and ensure successful adoption.
Projects are expected to include laboratory automation, sample tracking systems, compound management and wider scientific infrastructure initiatives.

Your duties as the Scientific Operations Manager will be varied:
- Lead scientific operations projects from initial problem identification through to implementation and adoption.
- Support the implementation and optimisation of laboratory automation, sample tracking and compound management solutions.
- Establish, document and improve operational processes to enhance scientific effectiveness and organisational efficiency.
- Monitor system performance, resolve operational challenges and drive continuous improvement initiatives.
- Translate ambiguous requirements into structured, deliverable projects and drive them through to completion.
To be successful in your application for this opportunity as Scientific Operations Manager, we are looking to identify the following on your profile and past history:
- Degree-qualified scientist with a minimum of 3 years' experience within a laboratory, biotechnology, pharmaceutical or wider life sciences environment.
- Experience delivering projects focused on laboratory operations, workflow optimisation, automation, sample management or scientific systems.
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to work effectively across scientific and operational teams.
- Knowledge of laboratory automation platforms, sample tracking technologies, inventory management or compound management systems.
- Exposure to scientific operations, research infrastructure or laboratory systems implementation.
