We are seeking a highly talented and motivated protein crystallographer who is keen to work on a variety of scientific areas within a dedicated and enthusiastic industrial environment. The successful candidate will be a key member of the crystallography team, with exciting opportunities to participate in multiple projects to support chemistry design throughout R&D as well as external collaborations. Excellent oral and written communication skills and the ability to work in multi-disciplinary project teams are important for this position.

Responsibilities:

•        Provide guidance for construct design, expression and purification, resulting in proteins suitable for crystallography

•        Characterize proteins intended for crystallization and carry out crystallization trials, crystal optimization and structure solution for proteins and protein-ligand complexes 

•        Effectively communicate results through presentations, e-mails and reports, and actively participate in structure-based design efforts

•        Maintain awareness of developments in the field of structural biology and broaden understanding of adjacent disciplines

A PhD in a structural biology related discipline is essential with demonstrated experience of soluble protein crystallography, from expression through to structure determination including relevant software as well as knowledge and ideally hands-on experience of membrane protein targets.
