Maintaining high standards of safety, quality, documentation and scientific integrity.

About you:

You are a skilled synthetic chemist who enjoys practical, laboratory-based work and is confident using common organic synthesis, purification and analytical techniques.
You have at least two years recent experience working in an industrial synthetic chemistry setting, enabling you to work independently and contribute effectively from an early stage.
You have a degree or equivalent qualification in chemistry, medicinal chemistry or a related discipline.
You have excellent written and verbal communication skills and are comfortable discussing and presenting your research to colleagues and clients.
You are passionate about science, keen to share and develop your knowledge, and motivated to contribute positively to both our chemistry and workplace culture.
Scientific integrity is of the utmost importance to you, alongside attention to client requirements and a commitment to confidentiality.

What you will get:

In addition to a competitive salary, we provide generous holiday entitlement, a pension scheme with enhanced employer contributions, a health cash plan covering a range of therapy treatments, a cycle to work scheme, a retail discount scheme, death in service benefit, a discretionary bonus scheme, and free on-site parking.

Youll also have access to our BHN Extras platform, offering cashback, discounts, and tech/home purchases via salary sacrifice.

Colleague wellbeing is important to us - we offer 24/7 virtual GP access, emotional support services, and a comprehensive wellbeing hub. Were proud of our inclusive, supportive culture and provide a range of learning and development opportunities to help you grow both personally and professionally.
