Job Description
We're hiring a Senior Research Scientist to join our clients Herbicide Biokinetics team in Bracknell for an initial one-year contract.
Below, you will find a complete breakdown of everything required of potential candidates, as well as how to apply Good luck.
The successful candidate will specialise in plant physiology and/or plant biochemistry, and have a PhD in a related field with 2+ years of post-doctoral research experience.
As a Senior Research Scientist, you'll evaluate biokinetics assays to measure the impact of ADME processes on active ingredients (AIs) in crops and weeds using LCMS as the analysis method.
You'll also devise and develop new capabilities/experimental strategies to support the ADME-related requirements of projects and programs, and introduce new technologies and improvements to assay protocols to generate operational efficiencies using automation and digital tools.
Your proven track record in experimental design and troubleshooting will enable you to independently design and perform a series of experiments to evaluate the robustness and validity of the biokinetics assays. You'll analyse data, feedback results, contribute scientific advice and propose appropriate follow-up studies, and effectively communicate scientific findings and resulting implications within the group and to cross-disciplinary projects.
