Project Associate- Biologist (Part-Time Flex)
Project Associate – Biologist (Part-Time Flex)
We are seeking a motivated and organised Biologist to support a range of scientific projects on a part-time, flexible basis. This role would suit an early-career scientist, postgraduate, or experienced laboratory professional looking for adaptable working arrangements and the opportunity to contribute to meaningful biological research and project delivery.
Working collaboratively with scientists, project leads and technical colleagues, you will assist with the planning, delivery and documentation of laboratory and field-based activities. You will be expected to work carefully and independently, while communicating clearly with the wider team and raising any technical or operational issues promptly.
Key responsibilities
- Support the design, preparation and delivery of biological experiments, surveys and project activities.
- Collect, process, record and analyse biological samples and data in accordance with approved procedures.
- Maintain accurate laboratory notebooks, electronic records, sample inventories and project documentation.
- Operate, clean and maintain laboratory equipment, reporting faults or supply requirements as necessary.
- Assist with data interpretation, preparation of technical summaries, reports and presentations.
- Follow all relevant health and safety, quality, environmental and ethical requirements.
- Contribute to team meetings, project planning and continuous improvement activities.
About you
You will have a degree or equivalent practical experience in biology, biological sciences, ecology, biochemistry or a related discipline. Experience of laboratory techniques, biological sampling, data handling or scientific research is desirable. Familiarity with spreadsheets, databases or statistical analysis software would also be advantageous.
You should have a methodical approach, strong attention to detail and the ability to manage competing priorities. Good written and verbal communication skills are essential, as is a willingness to learn new methods and work flexibly across different projects. You must be able to follow procedures accurately while also using sound judgement when working independently.
The position offers flexible part-time hours, which may vary according to project requirements. Some work may involve practical laboratory or field activities, so a willingness to work on site when required is expected.
