This apprenticeship will support the Protein Sciences team in the development, production, and characterisation of recombinant proteins that underpin biomodal’s technology platform.
It combines structured academic learning with hands-on laboratory experience. The apprentice will develop practical skills in molecular biology and protein science, while contributing to ongoing R&D projects. Working closely with experienced scientists, the apprentice will assist in experimental design, data generation, and analysis, whilst building a strong foundation in laboratory best practice, safety, and data integrity.

Key Responsibilities:

Support the expression, purification, and characterisation of recombinant proteins.
Perform routine laboratory techniques including pipetting, buffer preparation, chromatography, and sample analysis.
Assist in executing experimental plans, following established protocols and SOPs.
Accurately record experimental data in electronic lab notebooks (e.g. Benchling).

Data Analysis & Reporting:

Process and analyse experimental data under supervision.
Maintain clear and accurate documentation of results, ensuring traceability.
Contribute to data presentation in team meetings.

Equipment & Laboratory Operations:

Maintain laboratory consumables and stock levels.
Support calibration, maintenance, and troubleshooting of equipment.

Quality, Compliance and Safety:

Follow all laboratory health & safety procedures and risk assessments.
Work in accordance with internal quality systems and good scientific practice.
Ensure accurate documentation aligned with traceability and audit standards.

A proactive approach to learning and development.

Desirable

Prior laboratory experience (academic or industrial).
Awareness of protein purification or molecular biology techniques.
Familiarity with data handling using R or python.
Understanding of quality systems (e.g. ISO or GMP environments).

Qualifications:

A degree or certification in biological sciences, biotechnology, microbiology, biochemistry, or a related field. Alternatively, this could be substituted with proven experience working in an industrial laboratory environment.

Physical Demands/Work Environment:

The work environment is approximately 80% laboratory and 20% office based. Some manual handling or lifting is anticipated for this role to move bulk reagents or products. The laboratory will have specific risk factors and working procedures that will need to be adhered to. Lone laboratory working is permitted for this role with the requisite training and risk management.
