Job description

Experimental Cancer Medicine Centre (ECMC) researchers are world-leading scientists and clinicians who drive the discovery, development and testing of new treatments to combat cancer. The funding supports over 200 staff country-wide involved in early phase trials and Translational Research.

We are looking for a Translational Research Technician to join us to play an integral role in the delivery of projects that are part of the ECMC portfolio.

The role is to support all aspects of tissue collection activities for a variety of projects supported by the ECMC, and be responsible for post-collection processing of tissue in the laboratory to good clinical laboratory practice (GCLP) standards. You will also provide support for running and maintenance of GCLP labs, including equipment monitoring and ordering and provide support and training for staff and students involved in handling of human tissues.

Further detail on the roles and responsibilities of this position can be found in the Job Summary Form. 

Request

To be successful in this position you will be well-organised with the ability to plan effectively to ensure that collection and processing of samples is undertaken in a timely manner in line with GCLP standards.

You will also have great attention to detail and be flexible in your approach - understanding that due to the environment of the role, sample collections may be cancelled or postponed. 

Experience of working with human tissues, and a working knowledge of regulatory requirements would be highly beneficial.

Benefits
