The company are leaders within their field of expertise and are seen as the go to organisation within their specialist product area, not only in the UK, but on an international basis.

To support the growth of the business they now have the need to appoint a Senior R&D Scientist on a permanent basis.
In this role as a Senior R&D Scientist, you will be responsible for understanding what needs testing and for what purpose. You will then own the projects through from creating the test plan, outlining the test methods, conducting the testing yourself and then analysing the results and findings, with a view or producing a detailed report. The test will be focused around cell biology, but there will also be a lot of biocompatibility tests such as cytotoxicity, irritation, sensitization and genotoxicity all in line with ISO:10993. Being a Senior role you will be expected to lead 2 other team members which will include mentoring, delegation and training.
