About the Role
The Cancer Imaging Laboratory at the Barts Cancer Institute seeks a senior radiochemist to progress our relationship with a key industrial partner as well as supporting academic work. Bringing considerable scientific knowledge and expertise to the team, the role includes laboratory-based radiochemistry research, production and in vitro testing of agents for preclinical studies. The role provides high-level leadership support to the Group Leader, by being responsible for the financial, operational and resource management of the Group, managing commercial work and maximizing academic benefits to be gained from commercial relationships.
About You
Applicants must have a PhD in radiochemistry, radiopharmacy or radiopharmaceutical science, in combination with significant experience in radiochemistry covering a variety of radionuclides, in particular radiometals for imaging and therapy. You will be ready to apply your radiochemistry knowledge to developing radiolabeling strategies for a range targeting vectors. You will be keen to maintain and develop your laboratory practical skills, providing specialist advice, guidance and mentoring on behalf of the group leader. In addition, experience with policy impact work (especially with government departments) would be an advantage. This role is initially offered as a staff scientist position but there is the potential for academic progression for the right candidate.
About the School/Department/Institute/Project
The work of the Barts Cancer Institute (BCI) aims to transform the lives of those with and at risk of cancer through innovative research in the laboratory, in patients and in populations. It is one of six institutes within The Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry (FMD). BCI is a key partner in the CRUK City of London Major Centre (together with UCL, Kings and the Francis Crick Institute), a centre of excellence in biotherapeutics.
Benefits
In return, we offer 30 days' leave per annum, access to a pension scheme, a season ticket loan scheme and competitive salaries. We also offer enhanced family friendly leave, and an on-site nursery at the Mile End campus. You will also work with a friendly team, with personal development opportunities.
The post is based at the Charterhouse Square Campus in London. It is full time (35 hours per week), permanent appointment, with an expected start date of 1 April 2025. The starting salary will be Grade 6, in the range of £53,449 - £59,495 per annum, inclusive of London Allowance.
Queen Mary's commitment to our diverse and inclusive community is embedded in our appointments processes. Reasonable adjustments will be made at each stage of the recruitment process for any candidate with a disability.
