Location: University Park

An exciting opportunity to join an ambitious and forward-thinking team. The Bio-Support Unit (BSU) is a multi-site, multi-disciplinary research facility with its own technical, engineering, scientific, and administration staff. We are seeking an enthusiastic person (maternity cover) to contribute to the effective operation of the services we provide to our research community. The successful candidate will provide specialised support to the Director of BSU and work closely with staff, academics, students and external colleagues involved in biomedical research, 3Rs (replace, reduce, refine animals in research) and animal welfare.

This rewarding position requires a highly motivated individual with an attention to detail. Candidates must be able to work on their own initiative; supervising staff and performing some day- to-day administrative tasks, whilst effectively managing their own workload. Excellent IT skills, communication skills and enthusiasm are required, as well as the ability to work flexibly as part of a team. The candidate will actively promote a culture of care, prioritise animal welfare and will disseminate and champion the 3Rs, including acting as Named Information Officer (NIO). The successful applicant will bring significant experience in the biomedical research sector and will play active roles in our licensing team and ethical review committee (AWERB). This requires working under and possessing a good knowledge of the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986 and other relevant regulatory frameworks (e.g. VSA, AWA 2006).

Awareness of the responsibilities of named roles and excellence in research delivery are essential to ensuring processes are fit for purpose, legally compliant, and support a culture of care, while enabling the highest scientific and welfare standards.
