Scientist

Scientist I (Molecular Assay Development)

You are an early-career molecular biologist with strong hands-on experience in PCR, NGS, or digital PCR. You enjoy building assays, optimising workflows, and working with complex biological samples.

We are partnered with a Guildford-based diagnostics company developing advanced molecular and multi-omic assays to detect rare cancer signals. Their work sits at the forefront of liquid biopsy and translational diagnostics, integrating cutting-edge biology with a regulated development pathway.

As Scientist I – Molecular Assay Development, you will play an active role in designing, optimising, and validating DNA/RNA-based assays. This is a highly practical, lab-based role with real ownership and exposure to the full assay development lifecycle.

Key responsibilities:

• Execute molecular biology workflows including PCR, qPCR, dPCR, and NGS
• Design and optimise ...
