Position details

* Company: Michabo Health Science Limited
* Location: hybrid working
* Position: full-time, permanent Scientist
* Starting salary: ca. £37k-42k (dependent on experience) plus performance-related bonus pa
* Closing date: 31 July 2025

Background

Michabo Health Science Limited is an expanding spin-out company from the University of Birmingham. We are leaders in the innovation and application of molecular toxicity data from ‘omics technologies to support the hazard assessment of chemicals under European safety legislation. Our mission is to accelerate the world’s transition towards safer chemicals without vertebrate animal testing, using molecular toxicity data to identify and characterise exposure-related hazards for regulatory approval.

As interest and confidence in applying metabolomics and transcriptomics technologies to regulatory toxicology grows, so we are growing. We now seek to recruit a skilled Omics Data Scientist, complementing the strengths of our existing team. We succeed because of the strength of our science, our people, and our collaborative approach to working with our clients, who include regulators and chemical companies throughout the UK and Europe, as well as the European Commission. Our core values include fostering teamwork, and earning trust in the approach to our mission through all that we do. We operate hybrid working, with the city of Birmingham, UK, serving as our physical meeting hub.

The Role

A company Scientist role powers the delivery of our projects by conducting and delivering on contract research, assisting in the development of new contract proposals, and contributing to exploratory research in the company’s R&D programme. The Scientist works closely with Senior Scientists to conduct investigations and report scientific findings. We provide built-in career progression for Scientists through the learning and development of project planning and management skills, and by specialising in methods continually being improved by our R&D to solve real-world challenges in chemical safety. Our Scientists also co-author research publications.

We seek a proven researcher and team player who speaks our language, the language of ‘omics and ‘omics data analysis, applied to human or animal biology. Applicants should have a PhD (or equivalent level of expertise) focused on applying metabolomics (primarily) or transcriptomics to either toxicology, human health/disease or perturbation biology. The Scientist will be capable of performing reproducible computational and/or statistical analyses of ‘omics data to address toxicological questions, applying their knowledge of R or Python. They will review and incorporate insights from relevant scientific literature and databases to enable data analysis decisions and toxicological interpretation.

Applicants should be motivated to apply their skills towards 21st century regulatory toxicology to help transition towards non-animal toxicity testing. Some knowledge of mechanistic or regulatory toxicology is highly desirable, as is experience working outside of academia. We also invite applications from more experienced candidates for consideration in a more senior role in the company.
