Our client is a fast-growing biotech company seeking a Bioprocessing Development Lead to drive the transition of its pioneering cell culture platform from lab bench to pilot scale.
Their technology has revolutionised the way that plant-derived ingredients are produced, using sustainable methods of cultivation without the need to destroy trees or habitats.
We are seeking a senior bioprocessing professional to lead the scaling of the company’s biomanufacturing capabilities to meet growing customer needs.
Join a mission-driven team that’s redefining sustainable biomanufacturing through innovative technology—delivering high-value natural ingredients without harming ecosystems.
We’re looking for a bioprocessing professional to:
* Design, establish, and operate pilot-scale cell culture biomanufacturing systems (upstream & downstream).
* Lead the scale-up of novel production processes (from 1L to ~100L bioreactors).
* Develop and optimise downstream purification for plant-based bioactives.
* Work cross-functionally with R&D, commercial, and senior leadership to meet project and customer milestones.
You Bring:
* MSc, PhD or EngD in Bioprocessing, Biotechnology, or a related discipline.
* Hands-on experience in bioprocess development, scale-up, and tech transfer.
* Expertise in downstream processing techniques (e.g., filtration, extraction, analysis).
* A collaborative mindset and some experience of team leadership in dynamic environments.
* Strong problem-solving, communication, and project management skills.
* Experience with biomanufacturing QA/QC, safety protocols, and regulatory compliance.
Why Join?
* Be part of a purpose-driven team with cutting-edge science at its core.
* Shape the future of sustainable manufacturing.
* Flexibility and growth opportunities in a high-impact, scaling company.
