Research Scientist - Antibody Discovery

A successful pharmaceutical company is looking for a Research Scientist to join its Single B Cell Antibody Discovery team, supporting the development of next-generation immune cell engager therapeutics.

This is an exciting opportunity to work at the intersection of immunology, molecular biology, and computational antibody discovery, helping to identify and optimise antibody candidates that could become future medicines.

What you’ll be doing:

• Discovering antibody variable domains using Single B Cell antibody discovery platforms
• Supporting immune cell engager programmes through high-quality antibody generation
• Delivering molecular biology workflows including PCR, library prep, and NGS sample handling
• Characterising antibodies using ELISA, flow cytometry, and BLI
• Collaborating with multidisciplinary project teams to drive programmes forward

What we’re looking for:

• PhD or equivalent industry experience focused on antibody research
• Experience in antibody discovery & generation through single B cell, display technologies or similar
• Strong wet lab experience in cell culture and in vitro assays

Experience with sequence analysis, NGS workflows, or Single B Cell technologies highly desirable.

This role is offered on an initial 12 month contract with potential for extension.
