Research Officer
Research Officers may be assigned to a diagnostic and investigative role (typically working within an RVL) where the officer will be required to have a working knowledge of a range of laboratory-based diagnostic disciplines and to become competent in the post mortem examination of farmed animals and in follow-up on-farm investigation of disease problems. Alternatively, and typically within central laboratory divisions, Research Officers may be required to focus on a more specific laboratory-based discipline (e.g. anatomical pathology, bacteriology, virology, etc.) or sector (e.g. pigs, poultry, equidae, etc.), developing in-depth expertise and providing technical advice and support to RVL colleagues and other DAFM Divisions.
This competition provides for the establishment of three panels, the first reflecting the requirements of a diagnostic and investigative role and two more specialised panels reflecting the requirement to recruit persons with pre-existing expertise in veterinary bacteriology/parasitology/virology and anatomical pathology, respectively.
Research Officer Panel 1:
Diagnostic and Investigative Activities
Research Officer Panel 2:
Bacteriology, Parasitology and Virology
Research Officer Panel 3:
Anatomical Pathology
