Full job description

About Us

Aviura Limited develops high-performance, sustainable additive solutions (masterbatches) for the plastics and packaging industry. We focus on replacing traditional chemicals with renewable, plant-based alternatives for applications in food packaging, medical textiles, and agriculture.

The Role

We are looking for an experienced R&D Industrial Chemist to take full ownership of our product development pipeline. You will manage the entire lifecycle, from initial raw material research and lab-scale formulation, through to pilot-scale production and technology transfer to manufacturing partners. You will also build and mentor a small laboratory team.

Key Responsibilities

Lead the extraction, purification, and characterisation of plant-based active ingredients for use in polymer applications.
Develop and optimise masterbatch formulations using biodegradable polymers (e.g., PLA, PHBV, PBS) and advanced encapsulation techniques to ensure stability and performance.
Manage process mapping, select appropriate equipment, author SOPs, and prepare technical dossiers for the smooth transfer of products from R&D to commercial production.
Establish robust QC frameworks (analytical testing, stability protocols) and maintain a structured digital database for all experimental data, using standard statistical tools to drive decision-making.

Essential Requirements

PhD (or equivalent demonstrable experience) in Chemistry, Biochemistry, or Materials Science.
Hands-on expertise in green extraction and purification of plant-derived compounds (e.g. ultrasound-assisted extraction, chromatography).
Strong analytical chemistry and QC background, including HPLC and LC–MS/MS, SOP authoring, and stability testing.
Demonstrable experience with nano-encapsulation or lipid-carrier formulation.
Experience leading or contributing to technology-transfer / scale-up projects.

Why Join Us?

This is a unique opportunity to lead a sustainable "green chemistry" initiative from the ground up, with direct ownership of the entire technical strategy and team building.
