About Meridial

Meridial is a Focused Research Organisation (FRO) with a mission to bring connectomics into the living brain. We are building a platform for longitudinal, synapse-resolution mapping of functional neural circuitry in preclinical models. Our aim is to deploy this platform for translational projects and improve drug development outcomes for disorders of the Central Nervous System.

Meridial is a new not-for-profit FRO in the Convergent Research Ecosystem and funded by the Advanced Research and Invention Agency (ARIA).

About the role

Meridial is seeking an entrepreneurial Operations Manager to join as one of the first hires. This is a hands-on role spanning laboratory operations, compliance coordination, and administrative support. Early on, the role will be weighted toward day-to-day execution. Over time, it will expand to include recruiting/mentoring operations support, management of workflows, and increasing responsibility. A large part of the role will be interfacing with our parent organisation Convergent Research, which will provide operational support. Success requires a flexible and startup-friendly mindset, strong operational judgment, the ability to anticipate needs, unblock work, and keep operations moving in a fast-paced environment.
