Responsibilities include:
Configuring and deploying laboratory systems – Assisting in LIMS, ELN, or data platform rollouts by customizing workflows and data fields for end users.
Conducting user training and documentation – Educating scientists and lab technicians on system use, while creating SOPs and training materials.
Testing system functionality and performance – Ensuring scientific tools integrate with lab instruments and comply with data integrity standards.
Gathering feedback for iterative improvement – Acting as a liaison between users and technical support to refine features and resolve issues.
Supporting compliance and audit readiness – Helping labs implement systems in line with GxP, 21 CFR Part 11, or ISO standards.
Ideal candidates have a background in life sciences combined with experience in lab informatics or digital transformation projects.
North West England
North West England is one of nine official regions of England. It consists of Cheshire, Cumbria, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Merseyside. Major towns and cities in the North West include Manchester, Liverpool, Bolton, Carlisle, Macclesfield, Knutsford, Blackpool and Warrington.
Cumbria in the north of the region is largely rural whereas the south of the region is much more densely populated. The North West is known as the “Northern Powerhouse” thanks to its strong history in manufacturing. In days gone by the region was particularly famous for its textile industry, but the manufacturing today is based more on food and drink, chemicals, pharmaceuticals and transport. Digital technology, including games and software development, is also a major sector in the region, particularly in Liverpool and Manchester which have both seen huge growth in tech start-ups.
Famous people born in the North West: Wayne Rooney, footballer and Paul McCartney, musician.
