Job Description
BioTalent is partnered with an innovative regenerative biologics company looking to add an Analytical Scientist to their growing Process & Analytical Development team.
This is an opportunity to play a key role in the development of next-generation recombinant protein therapies, leading analytical method development and serving as a key technical interface with external CDMOs and CROs.
You'll work across CMC, process development and formulation teams to build and implement analytical strategies that support development from early-stage research through clinical and regulatory milestones.
What you'll be doing:
- Developing, optimizing and validating analytical methods for recombinant protein characterization
- Leading protein analytics across purity, identity, potency and structural characterization
- Applying techniques including HPLC/UPLC (SEC, RP, IEX), CE-SDS, icIEF, LC-MS and spectroscopy methods
- Supporting formulation, process development and stability studies through analytical insight and data interpretation
- Managing assay transfers, qualifications and validations with external CDMOs and CROs
- Authoring technical reports, SOPs, validation protocols and CMC documentation
- Supporting IND/BLA submissions and regulatory interactions where required
- Collaborating closely with Process Development, Formulation, Quality and Manufacturing teams
What we're looking for:
- BSc or MSc in Analytical Chemistry, Biochemistry, Biotechnology or a related discipline, alongside relevant experience in the Biopharmaceutical industry
- Strong hands-on experience with protein characterization and analytical method development
- Expertise across chromatographic, electrophoretic and mass spectrometry-based techniques
- Experience with method qualification and validation within GMP/GLP environments
- Strong understanding of protein chemistry, aggregation, degradation pathways and post-translational modifications
- Familiarity with biologics CMC development and regulatory expectations (FDA, EMA, ICH)
- Previous experience in a biopharmaceutical or CDMO environment is highly desirable
This role would suit an analytical scientist who enjoys working in a fast-moving development environment and wants broad exposure across protein therapeutics, CMC development and external partner management.
