Full job description

Investigator Scientist (Roving Researcher) (LMS 2369)

Salary: £42,159 – 44,801 plus London Allowance (£5,560) per annum
(Higher salary of £44,801 - £47,071 plus London Allowance (£5,560) per annum will be available for candidates with significant relevant experience)

2 Year fixed-term with the possibility to make permanent | Full Time | Location: Hammersmith London

Closing Date: 21 June

Overall purpose:

The Roving Researcher role is to provide experimental support to researchers on long-term leave (e.g. parental leave, long-term sick leave). Working with scientists across the Institute, the job-holder, together with the Researcher on Leave (RoL) and group leader, will develop a research plan to maintain the momentum of the research over the period of leave. While applicants should be able to demonstrate high levels of lab competency in cell and molecular biology (e.g. tissue culture, PCR, qRT-PCR, cloning, western blotting, immunostaining, mouse work), training in specific lab techniques will be provided. The job-holder will be expected to support, but not fully replace, any researcher on leave. The level of work required to maintain each project will be identified in advance of periods of leave. It is anticipated that the job-holder will work simultaneously on up to 2-3 projects.

This post would suit an experienced, highly-organised researcher who enjoys wet-lab work, collaborating across teams and who is keen to continue to develop and expand their skillset. This is a unique position within the institute and the Roving Researcher will have the opportunity to take part in a wide-range of life sciences research across the LMS to achieve our research goals. The position is available from March 2024, but the start date can be flexible.

Main duties / key responsibilities:

Working with researchers on leave and group leaders to agree and implement experimental plans
Plan and organise their time effectively to be able to work across 2 (on rare occasion 3) teams simultaneously
Communicating effectively across teams - including with the researchers on leave, group heads and line managers.
Assisting with data analysis, experiment interpretation and future planning
Contributing to external presentations and publications
Carrying out routine maintenance tasks required for the projects (e.g. feeding cells, maintaining fly stocks, etc.)
Undergo training in new techniques and/or train others
