The posts will be integrated within the NPL's Centre for Engineering Biology, Metrology, and Standards and Cryo-EM laboratories .

    The Centre is a multidisciplinary team developing innovative tools, materials, and reference standards to address the challenges of reproducibility, traceability, and comparability in Engineering Biology.

    We are now working in a hybrid way, with a mix of remote and office working. We strive to offer a great work life balance - if you are looking for full time, part time or flexible options, we will try to make this work where possible. This will be dependent on the kind of role you do and part of the business you work in.

    With a degree in Chemistry or Biochemistry, you

    are passionate about science and committed to personal development as a scientist
    have a solid knowledge in solid phase chemical synthesis and DNA assembly
    possess practical skills in synthesis, purification, and assembly of biopolymers

    Advantageous skills include

    experience in molecular cloning and assembly, mass spectrometry and cell free systems.
    previous experience working in industry or bio-foundries
    automated, parallel and high-throughput synthesis

    There will also be opportunities to develop and harness these skills in the NPL.
    For research examples please see:
    Hoose, A, et al. Nat Rev Chem ; Briones, A. et al iScience ; Kepiro, I. et al. ACS Nano ; De Santis, E. et al, Nat Commun .
    For industry case studies please see:

    This role is being advertised across multiple salary zones. Offer and salary will be dependent on experience.
    Please note that applications will be reviewed, and interviews conducted throughout the duration of this advert therefore we may at any time bring the closing date forward. We encourage all interested applicants to apply as soon as practical.
    We actively recruit citizens of all backgrounds, but the nature of our work in specific departments means that nationality, residency and security requirements can be more tightly defined than others. You will be asked about this throughout the recruitment process.
