Quantum is now, and it's built here.
Oxford Ionics, now part of IonQ, is pioneering the next generation of quantum computing. Using our world-leading trapped-ion technology, we’re building the most powerful, accurate and reliable quantum systems to tackle problems that today’s supercomputers cannot solve.
Joining Oxford Ionics means becoming part of a global IonQ team that is transforming the future of quantum technology - faster, at scale, and with real world impact.
What to expect
We’re looking for an experienced Facilities Manager to join us at our Oxford HQ, where world class science and engineering come together under one roof. This is a key role in creating and maintaining the environment that enables our teams to push the boundaries of quantum computing.
You’ll take ownership of all aspects of our offices and laboratories, ensuring they remain safe, compliant and optimised for a fast growing deep tech organisation. Working closely with our operations, people and engineering teams, you’ll play a vital part in shaping a world class workplace that supports innovation and scale as we continue to grow.
What you’ll be responsible for
You’ll oversee the day to day running of our Oxford HQ offices and labs, managing maintenance schedules, contractors and suppliers across building services, cleaning and utilities. You’ll also lead the planning and delivery of new facilities as we expand, taking full ownership of contractor relationships to ensure projects are delivered to the highest standard.
In addition, you will:
- Lead fit outs of office and lab spaces as we grow, creating environments that enable teams to do their best work.
- Partner with specialist suppliers, for example, air conditioning experts, to ensure our lab and compute spaces meet the standards needed for quantum research.

Experience leading office design and fit out projects is essential, while exposure to mixed office and laboratory spaces would be an advantage.
You should also bring:
- A background in managing facilities for office, laboratory or technical environments, ideally in high tech or advanced engineering sectors.
- Strong knowledge of health & safety, building compliance and facilities best practices.
- Excellent organisational skills and the ability to prioritise effectively in a fast moving environment.
- Confidence in managing contractors, suppliers and budgets to deliver projects on time and to a high standard.
Benefits
Be part of a team that’s shaping the future of quantum. We offer more than just a role, you’ll join a world class community of scientists, engineers and innovators working to unlock the full potential of quantum computing.
We offer a range of benefits, including opportunities to further your career alongside industry leaders, a competitive salary with IonQ stock options, an annual performance bonus, generous annual leave, flexible hybrid working, private medical and dental insurance for you and your family, and much more.
