About the role

The Analysis Platform sits within Science Innovation Platforms (SIPs) at the NHM, providing advanced analytical facilities to in-house researchers and external users, both academic and commercial. The Bulk Chemistry team prepares and analyses samples using a wide variety of techniques.

You will have a Master's degree in Chemistry, Earth Sciences, Life Sciences, or a related discipline, and experience working in an analytical chemistry laboratory. You will have a strong understanding of the principles of analytical chemistry, and knowledge of sample preparation techniques for bulk elemental analysis. You will have experience in the collection, processing, and organisation of analytical data. You will be a good communicator and effective team player.
