Job description

With extensive experience in developing biologics and bioconjugates, we offer a seamless service delivered by fully integrated teams, from early discovery to commercial manufacturing.

Forward-thinking and committed, we find the best solution and use the right technologies to design, develop and manufacture your products to ensure we get vital medicines to patients quickly and safely.

We are dedicated to quality excellence. We are driven to get better treatments to market, efficiently and responsibly by reducing timelines and delivering the highest quality products and services.

We are Abzena. More than a CDMO, we are a responsible and dedicated partner that takes care of your products from concept to patient.

The Laboratory Services Manager is the accountable leader for all operational infrastructure supporting the Analytical Services department. This role directly manages a team of laboratory technicians — including a dedicated Sample Operations & Logistics Technician and a Laboratory Management & Facilities Technician — and is responsible for the performance, development, and day-to-day direction of those individuals. The manager sets the standards, builds the systems, and ensures both technician roles execute with consistency, compliance, and quality.

This is a player-coach role. The manager is expected to be deeply familiar with all aspects of both technician functions — not as a backup, but as the subject matter leader who can identify gaps, resolve escalations, step in when needed, and continuously raise the bar. The manager owns the strategy and governance of laboratory operations, while the technicians own daily execution.
