Biotechnology Jobs

CureAge Therapeutics · London

Lead the computationally guided design of a lipid nanoparticle delivery platform, applying chemical and biophysical principles to optimise LNP composition and formulation. Use AI-enabled chemistry, cheminformatics, predictive models and molecular modelling to prioritise formulation components, working closely with the experimental team and founding team in a small start-up.

Alloy Therapeutics UK Ltd · Cambridge · £45,000 – £50,000 pa

Design and build large-scale synthetic gene loci and transgenic platforms for antibody discovery, using CRISPR/Cas9, RMCE and site-specific integrases. Hands-on molecular biology including PCR, NGS, plasmid construction and flow-cytometric immunophenotyping, within a small multidisciplinary team working from dry-lab design to wet-lab validation.

Ellison Institute of Technology · Oxford · £40,000 pa

Postdoctoral role in the Liu Lab for Synthetic Evolution, designing and troubleshooting experiments, analysing complex data with computational and statistical tools, and publishing high-quality research. The lab invented OrthoRep for continuous accelerated gene evolution, with projects spanning antibody sequence-affinity datasets, enzyme sequence-function maps, and de novo gene function emergence. Involves mentoring junior researchers and collaborating across multidisciplinary teams.

ISR Recruitment · Oxford · £520 – £532 pd

Lead a laboratory-based immunology team, designing in vitro pharmacology assays and coordinating in vivo efficacy studies with CROs to advance biologic therapies for autoimmune diseases. Involves target identification, ex vivo profiling, and cross-functional work with protein engineering, biomarkers and translational medicine, plus IND documentation and publications.

Ellison Institute of Technology · Oxford · £40,000 pa

Develops generative protein design models that capture enzyme dynamics and function, designing conformationally dynamic catalysts. Runs computational and statistical analyses, publishes findings, and collaborates with in vivo evolution teams across the institute. Also mentors PhD students and research assistants and pursues translational and IP opportunities.

Basecamp Research · London

Owns the peptide and protein platform as a commercial product, spanning market and competitive intelligence, target product profiles, roadmap and packaging decisions, and go-to-market positioning. Sits between model, data and science teams and business development, and is accountable for partner engagement and revenue generation. Requires deep peptide therapeutics and licensing deal expertise.

Sartorius · Glasgow

Performs laboratory techniques under GMP conditions, including cell-based assays, ELISAs and protein characterisation, to test biological products such as monoclonal antibodies, cell and gene therapies and vaccines. Also manages stock and reagents, maintains traceability records, and prepares controlled documentation like SOPs and risk assessments within a nine-person team.

Francis Crick Institute · London · £47,500 pa

Investigates how protein machines remodel microtubules using cryo-electron microscopy, protein reconstitution and fluorescence microscopy. As an early member of a new lab, you will shape the research programme, establish experimental approaches and develop scientific independence while working closely with the group leader.

University of Oxford · Oxford · £39,424 – £43,984 pa

Carries out laboratory research on synthetic genome DNA assembly, generating constructs and testing new approaches using recombinant DNA methylases. Involves molecular cloning, long DNA molecule extraction, bacterial culture and recombinant protein production and purification, with scope for some bioinformatic analysis. Based in a well-equipped Oxford lab, collaborating on translation of synthetic chloroplast genomes into crop plants such as potato and wheat.

Ellison Institute of Technology · Oxford

Design and conduct experiments on nanopore technologies, single-molecule analysis, and 3D tissue engineering, spanning chemistry, biology, physics and engineering. Postdocs lead development of emerging biotech methods, publish impactful research, and mentor junior researchers within a 100+ researcher institute.
