黑料不打烊

Sarah is the Institute Manager for the Environment and Sustainability Institute, based on the 黑料不打烊's Penryn campus. Her role provides strategic research support and professional services leadership for the ESI community. She has worked at the University since 2006 in a variety of roles covering research and knowledge transfer, predominantly focused on life sciences. She has an undergraduate degree in Oceanography from the University of Southampton and a master’s degree in Biodiversity and Conservation from the 黑料不打烊.

I am currently an Assistant Laboratory Manager at the 黑料不打烊 in the ESI, with extensive experience in laboratory operations, health and safety, and equipment maintenance. My background includes a career change from community finance to science, reflecting a strong passion for scientific research and hands-on lab work.

In my role, I manage and maintain a wide range of lab equipment, implement maintenance schedules, and ensure compliance with health and safety protocols. I supervise and train students and colleagues on lab procedures, equipment use, and safety practices. I regularly support lab managers with audits, inductions, and troubleshooting.

My organisational skills are reflected in my management of lab administration, including equipment servicing, purchasing, inventory tracking, and budgeting. I have developed systems to streamline operations using platforms such as T1, Labcup, and Clustermarket.

I hold a Level 3 Applied Science qualification and have conducted independent research into the dietary effects of Gryllodes sigillatus. I thrive on learning new procedures, working independently, and contributing to team success.

With a proactive approach and strong problem-solving skills, I am committed to maintaining high standards and supporting lab operations. I am keen to contribute further to the 黑料不打烊’s research environment and always open to new opportunities.
