    Default job background
    Description

    Full-time
    Scientific / Technical Science


    ABOUT LGC NATIONAL LABORATORIES:

    LGC's National Laboratories deliver a range of expert science functions and services in partnership with the UK Government, business, healthcare, and academia.

    We manage and operate several national laboratories on behalf of government agencies, such as the UK National Measurement Laboratory (NML), MHRA Laboratories Team and National Reference Laboratories, as well as hosting the unique function of the 'Government Chemist'.

    As home to many world-leading scientists, LGC's National Laboratories provide a wide range of expert analytical science services and subject matter expertise to a broad spectrum of customers, stakeholders, and global forums.

    In addition, we undertake contract research and development projects for a range of customers in both the public and private sectors.

    Our work addresses fundamental and emerging measurement challenges, helping to foster innovation and promoting productivity and economic growth.

    Our customers are across a number of end markets including Government, Academia Pharmaceuticals, Agricultural Biotechnology, Food, Environment.

    This is a great career opportunity for a mass spectrometry specialist to work alongside a small team of doctoral, post-doctoral and other researchers developing accurate methods that help enable the structural characterisation of proteins as well as purity determination of protein and peptides, and their quantification in complex matrices (clinical or food), traceable to the International System of Units.

    Complementary developed materials will be used as calibrators for these reference measurement procedures, especially in plasma, serum and cerebrospinal fluid (for application areas including neurodegenerative and cardiac related diseases) and in food matrices (for application areas including allergenicity).

    This role is a great opportunity for experienced candidates looking to progress their career as a science leader.

    The successful candidate will therefore have experience in protein quantification and structural characterisation by mass spectrometry and in bringing a group of scientists together to deliver work for our stakeholders and customers, within time scale, quality specifications and budget.

    Experience in mentoring a group of researchers to support their career development within a Metrology environment
    Experience of planning and managing complex long and short-term research projects, working within deadlines and reporting
