We are looking to appoint a Technician to join the research group led by Professor Ivana Barbaric. This work is part of a Medical Research Council (MRC)-funded project investigating genetic changes in human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) that may affect the safety and efficacy of cell therapy. The successful applicant will provide high-level technical support for routine hPSC culture and differentiation, preparation of samples and analysis. You will take responsibility for daily lab management, ensuring a safe and efficient research environment.
Applicants must have experience equivalent to a Level 4 or 5 qualification (e.g., HNC/HND/Higher Apprenticeship) in a relevant biological field, or equivalent substantial vocational experience along with previous experience working in a research laboratory. Experience of culturing mammalian cells and proficiency in molecular biology techniques (e.g., RNA extraction, qPCR) and/or microscopy are also essential.
The University of Sheffield is a remarkable place to work. Our people are at the heart of everything we do. Their diverse backgrounds, abilities and beliefs make Sheffield a world-class university.
We offer a fantastic range of benefits including a highly competitive annual leave entitlement (with the ability to purchase more), a generous pensions scheme, flexible working opportunities, a commitment to your development and wellbeing, a wide range of retail discounts, and much more.

We build teams of people from different heritages and lifestyles from across the world, whose talent and contributions complement each other to greatest effect. We believe diversity in all its forms delivers greater impact through research, teaching and student experience.
