The role will be instrumental in the safe, efficient, and innovative operation of the Facility. You will support the Facility Manager and Academic Lead in delivering a world-class service helping to design, perform and interpret experiments for clients. As well as supervising and training academic users, students, or technical staff.

Written and verbal communication with clients, technical staff and Facility users will be necessary on issues relating to projects, the Facility and the equipment housed within it.
