    Key Responsibilities

  • Review, evaluate and interpret toxicology data (in vitro, in vivo, literature) for preclinical safety assessments.

  • Design, oversee or coordinate toxicology and safety-pharmacology studies (outsourced or in-house) in compliance with regulatory and GLP/GCP standards.

  • Prepare and compile toxicology / safety sections for regulatory dossiers (e.g. IND / CTA / IMPD / CTD / briefing documents), including hazard / risk assessments, weight-of-evidence reports, and data gap analyses.

  • Liaise with external CROs, clients, internal project teams (R&D, regulatory affairs, project management) to coordinate study plans, timelines and deliverables.

  • Provide scientific advice on testing strategy, toxicological risk, and regulatory compliance throughout non-clinical development.

  • Maintain up-to-date knowledge of regulatory guidelines and scientific developments; ensure compliance with relevant frameworks.

  • Peer-review work, supervise or mentor junior scientists / toxicologists, and contribute to project- and lab-level safety strategy.

  • Communicate findings internally and to external stakeholders / clients; produce clear, high-quality reports and regulatory-ready documents.

    The Regulatory Toxicologist will have:

  • MSc / PhD (or equivalent) in Toxicology, Pharmacology, Biomedical Sciences, Biochemistry, or related life-science discipline.

  • Solid experience in toxicology, safety pharmacology or non-clinical safety assessment — ideally within a pharmaceutical, biotech or CRO environment.

  • Familiarity with in vitro and/or in vivo toxicology methods, ADME/TK, genotoxicity, safety pharmacology or related toxicity endpoints.

  • Strong understanding of regulatory requirements, guidelines (e.g. ICH, GLP), and dossier preparation processes.

  • Excellent scientific writing and communication skills; ability to produce regulatory-quality reports.

Maths for Biotech Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

Biotechnology is packed with data. Whether you are applying for roles in drug discovery, clinical research, bioprocessing, diagnostics, genomics or regulated manufacturing, you will meet numbers every day: assay readouts, QC trends, dose response curves, sequencing counts, clinical endpoints, stability profiles, validation reports & risk assessments. If you are a UK job seeker moving into biotech from another sector or you are a student in biology, biochemistry, biomedical science, pharmacy, chemistry, engineering or computer science, it is normal to worry you “do not have the maths”. What biotech roles do need is confidence with a small set of practical topics that show up again & again. This guide focuses on the only maths most biotech job adverts quietly assume: • Biostatistics basics for experiments, evidence & decision making • Probability for variability, uncertainty & risk • Linear algebra essentials for omics, PCA & modelling workflows • Calculus basics for kinetics, rates & dose response intuition • Simple optimisation for curve fitting, process set points & model tuning

Neurodiversity in Biotech Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

Biotechnology is all about solving complex problems that affect real lives – from new medicines & vaccines to sustainable materials, diagnostics & gene therapies. To tackle those challenges, the sector needs people who think differently. That is exactly where neurodivergent talent comes in. If you have ADHD, autism, dyslexia or another form of neurodivergence, you might have been told that your brain is “too much”, “too distracted” or “too literal” for a lab or scientific career. In reality, many of the traits that come with ADHD, autism & dyslexia are perfectly suited to biotech work – from spotting subtle patterns in experimental data to creative thinking around new solutions. This guide is written for biotechnology job seekers in the UK. We will explore: What neurodiversity means in a biotech context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths map onto specific biotech roles Practical workplace adjustments you can ask for under UK law How to talk about your neurodivergence in applications & interviews By the end, you will have a clearer idea of where you might thrive in biotech – & how to set up your working environment so your differences become genuine superpowers.

Biotechnology Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)
