The main responsibilities will be to set up synthesis runs, carry out oligonucleotide deprotection, prepare mobile phases for HPLC and MS, general reagent ordering and stock monitoring, and general lab housekeeping.

    What We're Looking For...

    We'll expect you to have some hands-on experience in a laboratory or manufacturing setting. In addition, you'll have A' Levels in Biology or Chemistry, advanced maths skills and a good understanding of scientific concepts. Knowledge of handling chemicals would also be advantageous.

    You have a good eye for detail, are an effective communicator and enjoy working as part of a team. Organisational skills and a systematic approach to work would also be beneficial. This role will suit someone who is quality and process driven, responsive to customer needs and who can take a positive approach and work to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing environment.

    This is initially a temporary position with a view to being made permanent for the right person

    We offer outstanding benefits to include an attractive bonus, generous pension contributions, private healthcare and an excellent starting salary. Based within beautiful, landscaped surroundings with tree-lined walks, water features and a lake, all of which make for a wonderful working environment.
