Director, Clinical Operations Lead

Our Client is seeking a Junior Electrical Engineer to join them on an initial 6 months contract (with the possibility of extension/ a permanent position workload dependant).

About the Client:

Our Client is a small, growing and ambitious engineering firm. They work across multiple sectors, including: building services, pharmaceuticals, Water/ wastewater, defence, and waste to energy. This position offers an opportunity for a Graduate Electrical Engineer/HNC-qualified or Junior Electrical Engineer to work closely alongside the Director.

About you:

The role will suit someone who is happy to work independently as well as within a small team. This is a great learning opportunity to gain valuable first-hand experience, our client isn't looking for someone to come in and 'hit the ground running', they are prepared and happy to train you on the job. This would suit someone who is not scared to get stuck in but equally happy and confident enough to ask questions when something doesn't make sense.

You might have a degree in Electrical Engineering, or you might have studied at HNC level or completed a diploma/apprenticeship - we are open to any level or electrical qualification.

About the role:

  • Develop electrical drawings, general arrangements, layouts and supporting documentation according to scopes provided by the business

  • Liaise with senior engineers to handover and complete works ready for signoff and submission to clients and commissioning agencies

  • Develop and build own knowledge and expertise in line with business requirements

    This role would initially require more of an office base until training has been completed. At this point, a hybrid working setup would be introduced.

    Only those with the right to work in the UK can apply for this position.

How Many Biotechnology Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Biotech Job?

If you are trying to break into biotechnology or progress your career, it can feel like the list of tools you are expected to know is endless. One job advert asks for PCR, another mentions cell culture, another lists bioinformatics pipelines, automation platforms or GMP systems. LinkedIn makes it worse, with people sharing long skills lists that make you wonder if you are already behind. Here is the reality most biotech employers will not say out loud: they are not hiring you because you know every tool. They are hiring you because you understand biological systems, can work accurately and safely, follow protocols, interpret results and contribute reliably to a team. Tools matter, but only when they support those outcomes. So how many biotechnology tools do you actually need to know to get a job? The answer depends on the role you are targeting, but for most job seekers it is far fewer than you think. This article breaks down what employers really expect, which tools are essential, which are role-specific, and how to focus your learning so you look employable rather than overwhelmed.

This in-depth guide explains exactly what hiring managers in UK biotechnology look for first, how they assess CVs, cover letters and portfolios, and why capable candidates are often rejected. Use it as a practical checklist before you apply.
