Scientist

NGS Scientist 1 - Guildford

You are an early-career molecular biologist who wants to build on and expand the scope of your assay development and NGS skills.

We are working closely with a Guildford-based company responsible for developing advanced molecular and multi-omic assays to detect rare cancer signals. This role sits at the forefront of liquid biopsy and translational diagnostics, integrating cutting-edge biology with a well-regulated development pathway.

You'll design, optimise and validate DNA/RNA molecular assays including independent NGS library prep, PCR, qPCR and digital PCR, for a unique technology that pulls imaging, proteomic and genomic analysis from a single sample. You will therefore have the opportunity to develop multiple skillsets in parallel, vastly expanding the scope of your future expertise.

About you:

MSc or PhD in Molecular Biology or related discipline

1–2 years' experience in molecular assay development or diagnostics

Hands-on expertise in PCR, NGS and/or digital PCR

Location: Guildford (5 days onsite)
