- Excellent communication skills, allowing you to liaise with external vendors and 3rd party testing labs, as well as various internal heads of department from R&D, quality and commercial.
- Ideally a knowledge of a regulated environment, in particular GMP
What you will do:
- You will take lead on developing analytical test methods, with the aim to substantiate product performance claims, working closely with R&D and reporting to the Head of R&D
- Support the product development of a wide range of household cleaning products
- Liaise daily with the formulation development chemists, keeping up to date with current projects and development briefs
