We are looking for an enthusiastic, motivated and highly capable individual who can work closely with analytical chemists, engineers, project managers and other scientists to contribute to Pharmaceutical Science projects. You will be involved in designing and implementing new chemical processes with a focus on delivery of multi kilo amounts of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) to meet demanding early phase project timelines.
As a Scientist, you will work closely with other team members and manage your own work to achieve project targets in a timely fashion and to agreed quality standards by applying synthetic chemical knowledge and expertise. You will be involved in developing new drug substance routes and processes for early supply of API and oversee the manufacture of batches for discovery, pre-clinical or clinical use as required. You will also assess, review and report data from your own work, with a clear understanding of its reliability.
Essential Skills/Experience: Bachelor's degree or Master degree (BSc/MSc/MChem) in organic synthetic chemistry. A good understanding of synthetic reagents and methodologies, reaction mechanisms and modern analytical techniques such as NMR and Mass Spectrometry. Experience in practical synthesis. Good proficiency in retrosynthesis. Desirable Skills/Experience: Experience in the early development phases of the drug development process. A basic understanding of the principles and concepts in pharmaceutical sciences. A basic knowledge of other drug development areas outside of own specialist area. A basic understanding of the role of Pharmaceutical Development within the R&D. Good communication skills. In Office Requirement:
When we put unexpected teams in the same room, we unleash bold thinking with the power to inspire life-changing medicines. In-person working gives us the platform we need to connect, work at pace and challenge perceptions. That's why, in this role, you will work five days per week from the office / in the lab. But that doesn't mean we're not flexible. We balance the expectation of being in the office while respecting individual flexibility. Join us in our unique and ambitious world.
