Service Manager in Harwell, Oxfordshire

on 29 December 2022

Great people - let down by limited progression

Working at Diamond gives you access to some great science announcements and has fantastic equipment to work with. The teams are great people to work with, all with a common goal. Problems only start when looking to progress up the ladder with processes that inhibit potential and policies that limit that progress.
