About Cancer Research Horizons

As the world's biggest medical research charity, we've helped bring eleven new cancer drugs to market. However, there is still an urgent need to bring more effective treatments to patients faster.

We have recently developed a new approach to driving therapeutic innovation through the creation of Cancer Research Horizons (CRH). We have brought together Cancer Research UK's established drug discovery teams under one organisation and leadership team, combining our unique pipeline of world class biology, cutting edge technology platforms and clinical expertise to 1) bring new treatments to patients faster and 2) tackle the biggest challenges in discovering cancer drugs by seeking out more radical ideas and embracing risk in our bid to achieve success.

Based at the Babraham Research Campus, Cambridge, the Cambridge Biomedical Campus, Granta Park in Cambridge, the CRUK Scotland Institute in Glasgow, the Francis Crick Institute in London, and Newcastle University, Cancer Research Horizons employs 200 staff from both industrial and academic backgrounds.

  • Deep expertise in biological statistics and its role and application in a pre-clinical drug discovery environment.
  • Proven scientific leadership, including through matrix management.
  • Experience in analysing a range of data generated during the discovery phase for example large and complex datasets (e.g. high-throughput compound screening), bespoke analysis of enzymology and pharmacology data.
  • Knowledge of Bayesian methods and statistical modelling, experimental design (including DOE).
  • Programming experience with tools such as R, Python.
  • Excellent communication skills, ability to describe complex science in an engaging and inclusive manner. Ability to influence multiple stakeholders and collaborate across projects and sites.
