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.

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.

Moderna · Oxford

Designs and delivers immunogenicity and bioanalytical strategies for regulated clinical programmes, developing ADA, nAb, PK and PD assays using ELISA, MSD and cell culture. Works with multidisciplinary teams to validate assays, manage reagents and SOPs, and integrate digital and AI-enabled tools. Site-based at Harwell within a growing mRNA-focused 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.
