Full Time: 35 hours per week

Fixed term: 12 months fixed term contract (with possibility of extension 3 years)

The Opportunity:

Where discovery never stops. Be part of something bigger.

We are seeking a motivated candidate to join the research group of Marcus Wilson as a research technician. The group studies the reading writing and erasing of epigenetic marks, using a combination of structural biology, biochemical and biophysical techniques (www.mdwilsonlab.com).

The successful applicant will focus on an exciting collaborative project producing protein and DNA reagents and performing biochemical assays to investigate how chromatin shapes the response to DNA damage. Previous lab experience in a biological lab is required, with experience in protein purification and biochemistry. Applicants with an undergraduate degree in biology, biochemistry or chemistry are preferred. The candidate will benefit from training in a vibrant intellectual and collaborative environment of the Wilson lab.

Our technical staff are essential to supporting research. Whether you're maintaining cutting-edge lab equipment, facilitating ground-breaking research or developing new techniques, your work will have a lasting impact that stretches far beyond our academic community.

People have always been at the heart of our work. Our people are at the centre of the University community and everything we do. We value colleagues with drive, determination and a passion for what they do. We are a place where everyone is welcome and offer a range of policies and benefits designed to support you.

Here, you can continue to make a difference in everything around you. Take on new challenges, grow your career, be recognised for your contributions, and benefit from our commitment to your wellbeing. Be part of something bigger — where your work has real impact and your development matters. There are so many reasons to take your next step with us.

A career with us has a range of other benefits that can be tailored to your lifestyle:

Opportunities to develop new skills and broaden your experience
Leading-edge research
Interesting work

This post is full-time (35 hours per week); however, we are open to considering part-time or flexible working patterns.

Championing equality, diversity, and inclusion

The University of Edinburgh holds a Silver Athena SWAN award in recognition of our commitment to advance gender equality in higher education. We are members of the Race Equality Charter, and we are also a Stonewall Proud Employer, actively promoting LGBTQ+ equality.

We welcome applications from all qualified candidates and particularly encourage applications from black and minority ethnic candidates, as we acknowledge they are currently underrepresented in our area at this level.

Prior to any employment commencing with the University, you will be required to evidence your right to work in the UK. Further information is available on our right to work webpages (opens new browser tab)

The University is unable to sponsor the employment of international workers in this role. International applicants will therefore be unable to apply for and secure a Skilled Worker visa. They will only be able to take up this role if they can demonstrate an alternative right to work in the UK.

Key dates to note

The closing date for applications is 8 September 2026.

Unless stated otherwise the closing time for applications is 11:59pm UK time. If you are applying outside the UK the closing time on our adverts automatically adjusts to your browsers local time zone.
