Build Your Expertise in a Hands-On Analytical Sciences Role

Associate Specialist - Site Analytical Sciences

Imagine working at the centre of a highly regulated pharmaceutical laboratory environment, where your analytical expertise supports the development, testing, and lifecycle management of both pipeline and commercial products.

This is a hands-on, technically focused opportunity for an experienced analytical scientist to work across analytical method introduction, transfers, validation, laboratory testing, investigations, and ongoing method improvement.

You'll be part of a collaborative Site Analytical Sciences team, working within a GMP-regulated environment where analytical accuracy, data integrity, technical problem-solving, and quality are essential.

What you'll achieve (and why it matters):

You'll contribute to analytical activities that support pharmaceutical products throughout their lifecycle:

• Perform laboratory-based analytical testing and technical studies within a GMP environment
• Support and/or lead analytical method transfers, validations, and compendial method verifications
• Support the introduction and lifecycle management of analytical methods
• Generate, review, interpret, and verify analytical data
• Prepare and review technical documentation and reports
• Troubleshoot analytical methods and laboratory equipment
• Participate in laboratory investigations, deviations, CAPAs, and change controls
• Apply technical rationale to analytical and laboratory issues
• Support continuous improvement of analytical procedures and laboratory processes
• Collaborate with Quality Control, Manufacturing, Validation, Technical Operations, and Global Analytical teams
• Maintain compliance with cGMP, data integrity, safety, and regulatory requirements
• Support digital method development and analytical technology initiatives

Your edge (desired, not required):

• Bachelor's Degree in Analytical Chemistry, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Pharmaceutical Sciences, or a related scientific discipline
• 2-3 years' relevant experience for Associate Specialist level
• Previous pharmaceutical, biotechnology, or vaccine industry experience
• Experience working within a GMP-regulated laboratory environment
• Hands-on analytical testing experience
• Experience reviewing analytical data and technical documentation
• Good understanding of GMP documentation and data integrity
• Experience with HPLC / UHPLC
• Exposure to Agilent or Waters instrumentation and Empower Software
• Experience with analytical method validation, transfers, or compendial testing
• Analytical troubleshooting and laboratory investigations experience
• Exposure to equipment performance qualification
• Experience with technologies such as CE-SDS / AB Sciex, icIEF / Maurice / Bio-Techne, Solo VPE, ELISA, or cell-based assays is beneficial
• Strong technical report writing, analytical, communication, and organisational skills

Why this role matters:

This is an opportunity to build your analytical sciences experience within a highly regulated pharmaceutical environment, working across both pipeline and commercial products.

You'll gain valuable exposure to the full analytical method lifecycle, from method introduction and transfer through to validation, routine testing, troubleshooting, investigations, and continuous improvement.

With exposure to advanced analytical technologies and platforms including HPLC/UHPLC, Empower, CE-SDS, icIEF, ELISA, and cell-based assays, this role offers the opportunity to further develop your technical capability while contributing to high-quality pharmaceutical manufacturing and laboratory operations.
