Researcher - Laboratory Manager at the Hultgren Laboratory
Responsibilities The Hultgren Laboratory is a KTH infrastructure facility open to students and researchers from universities, institutes, and industry. It offers a comprehensive set of instruments for sample preparation, materials characterization, and measurement of material properties. While the facility provides measurement services, it is primarily designed for independent researcher use, where, after appropriate training, researchers can operate the tools and instruments themselves. Most research conducted at the laboratory focuses on metallic and hard materials, but the equipment is also well-suited for studying a broad spectrum of other solid materials, such as ceramics, polymers, semiconductors, composites, and biomaterials. The overall goal of the Hultgren Laboratory is to enable high-quality and meaningful materials research and education by offering reliable, accessible, and state-of-the-art experimental resources. A central part of this mission is to promote an efficient and well-functioning user environment that supports both scientific excellence and collaboration between academia and industry. The Laboratory Manager holds a key role in achieving these goals. The position is responsible for overall coordination and day-to-day operation of the laboratory, including management of user access, responding to inquiries, and ensuring an effective introduction and training process for new users. The Laboratory Manager will be responsible for maintenance, functionality, and safe operation of all equipment, while providing technical support to users in their experimental work. Additionally, the role includes responsibility for the laboratory's financial monitoring, including budgeting, operating costs, investments, and revenue from user fees and services. While primary responsibility for individual instruments is distributed within the team, the Laboratory Manager is expected to provide technical leadership for selected equipment in line with their expertise, such as XRD, SEM, thermal analysis, or mechanical testing. Beyond operational responsibility, the Laboratory Manager is expected to contribute strategically to the laboratory's development by formulating a clear vision and initiating plans for long-term improvements to infrastructure, services, and instrumentation. The goal is to continuously strengthen the laboratory's capacity and increase its contribution to research quality and innovation.
