  • Stocking and organizing PPE stations, storage areas, and operational supplies throughout the facility.
  • Assisting with the movement, organization, and transfer of equipment within vivarium spaces.
  • Performing minor facility maintenance and basic repairs as needed.
  • Following established Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), Good Laboratory Practices (GLP), and applicable regulatory requirements.
  • Adhering to all safety protocols, including the proper use of personal protective equipment and biosecurity procedures.
  • Working closely with husbandry and operations teams to maintain a clean, efficient, and well-functioning research environment.

What You'll Bring

  • High School Diploma or equivalent.
  • Ability to communicate effectively, both verbally and in writing.
  • Basic computer skills, including familiarity with Microsoft Office applications.
  • A strong work ethic and attention to detail.
  • Ability to perform physically active work, including standing, walking, lifting, and moving equipment throughout the day.
  • A positive attitude and willingness to support team goals.
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment and collaborate with individuals from diverse backgrounds.

Why Join Us?

  • Be part of a team that supports meaningful scientific and medical research.
  • Gain experience in a regulated research environment.
  • Enjoy a collaborative and supportive workplace culture.
  • Develop skills in facility operations, equipment maintenance, compliance, and laboratory support.
  • Work in a role where your contributions directly impact the success of the entire vivarium operation.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
