* Provide vital reporting and insights on site performance to the senior executive team.
What We’re Looking For:
* Minimum 5 years’ experience managing operations in a similar sector—biomedical, research, or life sciences preferred.
* Strong working knowledge of regulatory frameworks (e.g., ASPA 1986), and a proven ability to navigate compliance with Home Office and HSE standards.
* Exceptional leadership, organisational and communication skills with a hands-on, people-first management approach.
* Proficiency in financial oversight, data analysis, and project delivery.
* A passion for innovation, excellence, and animal welfare.
