Job Description
KEY SKILLS / EXPERIENCE REQUIRED:
ROLE SUMMARY:
Dedicated to developing new and novel plant based products, this business is focused on the cultivation of plant based ingredients in a sustainable and natural way. Much of their work is revolutionary and groundbreaking, often working with crop types that haven't undergone bio-engineering or transformation previously.
As they look to build their Plant Transformation capabilities, a Senior Scientist with a high level of expertise in plant tissue culture and plant transformation is required to help drive this forward. This role will require somebody with the experience level to not just follow an existing roadmap and blueprint, but to actually play a key role in defining such processes.
It's likely therefore that the successful candidate will possess demonstrable relevant experience in Plant Transformation work in addition to a relevant MSc, PhD or equivalent in a related discipline. Some of this experience will ideally be in industry... however, those without this but who have worked closely with industry and can demonstrate a commercial and practical way of thinking are also encouraged to apply!
