The company is currently incubated and funded by ALSA Ventures, a London based life sciences venture capital firm. ( https://www.alsaventures.com/ ).
We are developing a pipeline of proprietary bispecific antibody-drug conjugates to exquisitely target tumour cells - providing a step-change in the safety of these emerging modalities by significantly reducing on-target off-tumour toxicity.
We are now establishing our own laboratory to execute on our ambitious growth plans, and are seeking a Research Scientist to support our Research Team.

The successful applicant will play a key role in our monoclonal and bispecific antibody screening workflows, establishing and running key cell-based assays to inform lead candidate selection.
Key Requirements
Applicants will have a PhD or MSc in a relevant field, with experience in cell culture and assay technologies, ideally gained within a biotech or biopharma environment. Specifically:
·Tissue culture: Familiar with working at CL2. Cell-line maintenance, including expansion and banking of multiple cell types.
·Binding assays: Proven expertise in high throughput flow cytometry for antibody binding essential.
·Mechanism of action: Experience using an Incucyte is desirable.
·Comfortable with working independently and pro-actively in a start-up environment. Goal oriented, organised, capable of prioritising and working on multiple projects, and able to execute timelines that meet company goals.
·Excellent verbal and written communication skills
This is an exciting time to be a part of the Promatix team. As an experienced assay scientist in our laboratory, the right candidate will be able to make a signficant contribution to building decisional data packages as we prepare for our next funding round.
