We are recruiting for an exceptional individual to join the Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics (DMPK) group as an analytical chemist to conduct physicochemical measurements (solubility, lipophilicity and acid dissociation constants) as part of an experienced, multi-disciplinary team within the DDU. The post is therefore suited to an individual with broad experience in laboratory analytical methods (particularly chromatography-based techniques) gained over several years in the pharmaceutical/contract research industries and/or academia. With a deep and thorough understanding of chromatographic analytical techniques, this role would suit someone who would like to apply their skills in the search for new molecules to tackle major global diseases.
This is a unique opportunity to grow your expertise in industry-style drug discovery within an academic setting. The bioanalytical laboratories within the DMPK group are well equipped to meet the demands required of an early drug discovery organisation, with multiple UHPLC/MS systems and other analytical equipment. Working across several teams and liaising with experts in different disciplines, you will be uniquely placed to influence the future development of our methodology. Our busy public engagement programme offers an opportunity to gain new skills and inspire people beyond the DDU with the work you do.
