Our client, a specialist scientific consultancy, is looking for a Senior Analyst to join their team for an initial 12-month period.  This will be a hands-on role within the labs, using mass spectrometry techniques to perform specialist analysis work as directed by their customers. 

The ideal candidate will have a background that includes either: -

• A strong scientific academic background, ideally in Chemistry or similar at degree or A level standard along with ideally 2 years+ in a similar lab-based role

OR

• A higher-level academic background – Master’s degree with 18 months lab experience or fresh PhD in a relevant analytical field

Along with: -

• An understanding of chromatographic analysis techniques – GCMS techniques are key to the role but any experience of FTIR, TGA, UV-VIS or GPC would be useful (and you will receive training on any areas you aren’t familiar with)
• Experience working in a regulated / structured lab environment – GMP, GLP, ISO17025 would be useful

Whilst they can only offer this role on a 12-month fixed term contract basis, there are good opportunities to stay with the business longer term.  They have multiple labs focusing on different areas of scientific analysis and testing and they are growing rapidly in certain areas.
