YOUR SCIENTIFIC RESPONSIBILITIES

You oversee projects related to protein formulation development, stability studies, compatibility studies, forced degradation studies, protein labelling and purification.

You guide and support your team in the execution and interpretation of experiments and solving complex scientific questions.

You design experimental strategies, review data and ensure scientific quality across projects.

You contribute your expertise in biophysical characterization techniques such as DLS, fluorescence techniques, microflow imaging, light obscuration, osmometry and viscometry.

You take ownership of scientifically challenging projects and help find practical solutions to complex analytical questions.

You ensure reporting meets the high standards expected by both our clients and our organization.

You will occasionally be debating protein behaviour more passionately than some people discuss football...

YOUR CUSTOMER & BUSINESS RESPONSIBILITIES

You scope new projects together with the customer and the commercial team.
