Our mission At Electrogenos, we're building technology to make green hydrogen competitive at scale. We focus on reducing the cost and complexity of hydrogen production so it can replace fossil-based alternatives across real-world applications. We're an early-stage team working at the intersection of electrochemistry, manufacturing, and deployment. About The Role We are looking for a Lab Operations Coordinator to keep our Milton Park lab, workshop, and office running day to day. Most of your time goes on the lab: making sure it is clean, safe, and stocked with what the team needs, and that orders are placed and chased through to delivery. The rest is the general running of a small site — records, trackers, meeting and travel booking, deliveries and post, and the administration that comes with new starters. This is a hands-on, practical role. You will be based on-site alongside our scientists and engineers, and you will be the person they rely on to make sure nothing the lab needs gets forgotten. You do not need a scientific background and you do not need to have done all of this before. If you have never raised a purchase order or maintained safety records, we will teach you. What we need is someone organised and reliable who follows things through without being chased. Tasks Keeping the lab and site running Support the day-to-day running of the lab, workshop, and office so the environment is clean, safe, and ready to work in Coordinate routine maintenance, servicing, and repairs, and act as the point of contact for equipment engineers and contractors Keep housekeeping and waste management on track, including consumables disposal and the tidiness of shared areas Maintain basic equipment records — what we own, where it is, and when it was last serviced or calibrated Procurement and stock Raise purchase orders and process them through to delivery Monitor stock levels of lab and office consumables with the technical team, set reorder points, and place routine orders before things run out Track supplier lead times and delivery dates, and chase late orders until they arrive Check incoming deliveries against orders, and resolve shortages, wrong items, and damaged goods with the supplier Get quotes and set up new suppliers when the team needs something we do not currently buy Records, deadlines, and follow-up Keep shared trackers and task lists up to date, send reminders, chase outstanding actions, and flag clearly when something is at risk of slipping Maintain filing and document templates on the shared drive Help maintain health and safety records, with guidance from the technical team Collect receipts, invoices, timesheets, and figures when the team is preparing grant claims or project reports Office and team support Monitor the shared inbox, handle post and couriers, and receive visitors Book meetings and travel for the UK team, take notes, and circulate actions Handle basic HR administration for new starters — paperwork, equipment, and first-day setup Essential Skills Organised and reliable — several things running at once, nothing forgotten You notice when something is not right and take responsibility for getting it sorted, rather than waiting to be asked Clear communicator — straightforward in writing, and comfortable telling a colleague at any level that something is overdue Confident with everyday business tools: email, spreadsheets, shared drives, calendars, and a task tracker Comfortable moving between physical, hands-on work and computer-based work through the day At ease in and around a laboratory and workshop environment — you do not need to be a scientist, but you should not be put off by a lab Happy in a role that is varied and practical, where the days are not identical Right to work in the UK Desirable Skills Some experience placing orders, raising purchase orders, or dealing with suppliers and deliveries Some experience in a lab, workshop, research group, university department, or other technical setting — including as an assistant, technician, or administrator Basic awareness of health and safety practices in a lab or workshop Previous experience in a small business, SME, or startup Basic familiarity with an HR or people system Your profile You are early in your career — roughly one to two years into working life — and you are looking for a practical, varied role where you can build real skills. Maybe you have been an administrator or assistant in a university department or research group, keeping the stock cupboard full and the paperwork straight. Maybe you have worked in an office where you ended up being the person who placed the orders and chased the deliveries because you were the one who actually followed up. Maybe you have been a lab or workshop assistant and want to stay close to that environment without being at the bench. The common thread is follow-through. You send the reminder, chase the input, update the tracker, and close the loop. You are comfortable being on your feet and in the lab as much as at a desk, and you would rather have a clearly defined job you do well than a vague one you have to invent. Why us? A hands-on role where the difference your work makes is visible day to day A small team that will rely on what you do and notice when it is done well Training and support on the parts of the job you have not done before Work on real technology for the energy transition, alongside scientists and engineers Competitive salary and company benefits No two days the same About us Electrogenos is building technology to make green hydrogen competitive at scale. We focus on reducing the cost and complexity of hydrogen production so it can replace fossil-based alternatives across real-world applications. We’re an early-stage team working at the intersection of electrochemistry, manufacturing, and deployment. Our approach is practical by design: use scalable materials and processes, and validate performance through close collaboration with partners.
