The role is a full-time position with a standard 40-hour working week, from the contract lab in Rosewell, Atlanta.

The role holder will be required to work flexibly including travel and some weekend commitments.

Clinical trial and Laboratory support:

• Take ownership of the end-to-end logistics for sample collection, tracking, and shipment between trial sites and our laboratory partners - ensuring everything runs seamlessly and on time.

• Champion accuracy and accountability by keeping all documentation, chain-of-custody, and reporting audit-ready.

• Keep trial activities moving, from monitoring sample processing timelines to hitting reporting milestones, so contractual and regulatory commitments are never at risk.

• Contribute to the creation of lab manuals, SOPs, and training materials, helping set the standard for how Cyted collaborates with trial sites.

• Play a hands-on role in data monitoring, safeguarding the completeness and quality of laboratory-generated results that underpin our clinical progress.

Operational Coordination:

• Act as the go-to operations link between clinical teams, trial sites, laboratory partners, and internal stakeholders - building trust and keeping communication flowing.

• Coordinate schedules, resources, and workflows, ensuring everything in the lab and trials is set up for success.

• Maintain the laboratory and office environment to the highest health, safety, and regulatory standards.

• Own processes like document control, report generation, and administrative processes linked to laboratory operations.

• Handle queries from colleagues, trial sites, and external partners with a professional, proactive approach that inspires confidence.

• Step in to triage and resolve operational issues. Whether it’s sample integrity, test discrepancies, or data delivery.

• Strive for exceptional customer satisfaction, making sure every partner interaction with Cyted is smooth and professional. 

Quality & Compliance Monitoring:

• Help drive Cyted’s Quality Management System (QMS), keeping us aligned with CAP, CLIA, ISO, and GCP requirements.

• Be fully prepared for audits, inspections, and quality reviews, ensuring the lab always operates to the highest standards.

• Take responsibility for maintaining quality documentation, from SOPs to CAPA records, ensuring compliance is never compromised.

• Keep a close eye on lab performance metrics (turnaround times, error rates, compliance indicators), providing clear dashboards for management to act on.

• Partner closely with QA and operations teams to investigate and resolve issues, whether small discrepancies or more complex deviations, so quality and compliance remain watertight.

At Cyted, how we work is as important as what we work on. Our values guide how we lead, collaborate, and deliver, and as Laboratory Co-ordinator – Quality & Operations, you’ll be expected to model them every day.

We care deeply about the patients and partners we serve, and about the colleagues we work alongside. In this role, care means ensuring laboratory processes run seamlessly, safely, and compliantly. You’ll treat every sample and workflow with respect, understanding the impact your diligence has on patients, clinicians, and trial outcomes.

We expect you to own your function with confidence and accountability. You’ll be the point of coordination between Cyted, our laboratory partner, and clinical trial sites - making sure that logistics, reporting, and compliance are managed effectively and efficiently. You’ll take responsibility for what needs to happen, follow through with precision, and continuously look for ways to improve how we operate.

We aim high. Cyted is scaling quickly in both clinical trials and commercial operations, and our lab operations need to set the standard, not just keep up. You’ll be trusted to set ambitious expectations, raise the bar on quality, and think creatively about how to make workflows smarter and more efficient. High standards, curiosity, and a relentless focus on better are not optional - they’re how we grow.

You’ll be expected to dive deep into both the detail and the purpose of your work. Nothing is too operational or too strategic for your attention. You’ll need a solid grasp of CAP/CLIA requirements, quality management systems, and day-to-day logistics - and you’ll understand not just what needs to be done, but why it matters. You’ll model that understanding for others and help build scalable, compliant processes from the start.

We encourage everyone to challenge and commit. You’ll have the space to ask questions, push for better, and speak up when things could be improved. But once a decision is made, you’ll own it fully. Silent disagreement has no place here - clarity, conviction, and commitment to shared goals are how we move forward.

And most of all, we deliver. Our success depends on execution. In this role, that means getting samples processed correctly, audits passed smoothly, timelines met consistently, and customers supported confidently. You’ll focus on what matters, act with urgency, and make measurable progress every day.

This is how we work at Cyted, and if this sounds like the environment where you’ll do your best work, we’d love to speak with you.
