The project involves trying to identify genes which are diagnostic of the pharmacological profile of candidate compounds. You will join our team of highly qualified statistics professionals and work in close consultation with scientists. The work will be theoretically challenging, and you will be analysing large multivariate data sets, and hence some knowledge of multivariate statistical techniques will be required. You should have a good honours degree or post-graduate qualification in Statistics and some expertise of programming in a major statistical package such as SAS. An ability to program in a computer language such as Perl, Java or C++ would be helpful, but not essential. You will have the desire and ability to broaden your knowledge to meet the challenges of the role. Reporting to the Research Statistics manager you will be expected to work well within a team and to have the communication skills required for interacting successfully with specialist scientists in order to both understand their needs and report your findings. You will be using a wide variety of statistical methodologies and you will be expected to enthusiastically promote the application of chosen methods to maximise the benefit to the business.
