Technician (Biomedicine)

The role of Technician (Biomedicine) has become vacant in the University’s School of Science, Engineering and Environment (SSEE). SSEE is a large multi-disciplinary School comprising around 400 staff, including around 50 highly skilled technicians and approximately 4500 students studying on a range of taught and research programmes at BSc, BEng, MEng, MSc, MPhil and PhD level. SSEE embraces subjects as diverse as Zoology, Parasitology, Mathematics, Computer Science, Engineering, Geography, Biomedical Science, Architecture and Construction Management, in a range of locations on the Peel Park campus. 

The university could not deliver high quality research, teaching and knowledge transfer without the work of our skilled technical staff at all levels of the institution, and we aim to ensure the contribution technicians make is fully recognised. The University of Salford is a signatory of the national Technician Commitment, which aims to ensure the key themes of visibility, recognition, career development and sustainability are developed for technicians working in higher education and research. We aim to do this by pledging action against the themes, ensuring technician roles are viewed as professional careers, developing potential career pathways and encouraging career development opportunities. 

The role of Technician (Biomedicine) is key to ensuring students within SSEE can receive the best student experience possible in the degree programmes that encompass this discipline area. The successful candidate will support the Senior Technician in preparing and supporting laboratory classes. This will include preparing reagents, consumables, ordering and maintaining equipment to name a few roles.
