In this role you will additionally have the opportunity to develop and mentor a small group of biologists in the respiratory biology team.

Key accountabilities of the role

  • Successfully develop and enhance respiratory relevant biology analytical platforms and technologies
  • Build scientific expertise through training and supervising a biology team with the necessary scientific and technical capabilities to support the nature and complexity of current and future drug discovery programs
  • Work collaboratively with cross-functional discovery teams to identify project needs and develop selected experiments to address project questions by agreed timelines
  • Maintain a high level of documentation for all experimental work to ensure data integrity expectations are met

Key skills and experience

  • Ph.D. in Respiratory Biology, Cell Biology, Molecular Biology, Immunology or comparable experience
  • Independently able to design, execute and interpret experimental studies across a wide range of laboratory techniques, including cell culture (isolation and culture of respiratory disease relevant primary/iPSC human cells e.g., epithelial cells, macrophages/T cells, fibroblasts), optimisation and execution of cell-based assays (phenotypic and mechanistic), molecular biology, RNA isolation, RT-PCR analysis), standard protein analysis, histology, flow cytometry and imaging
  • Track record of scientific innovation as evidenced by peer-reviewed publications, conferences, patents
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to effectively present scientific findings to multidisciplinary internal and external stakeholders in a balanced, clear, and precise manner
  • Able to independently define strategic approach to tackle specific project or department goals
  • Good understanding of drug discovery, ability to influence project direction by interpreting results outside their area of expertise
  • Effectively trouble-shoot assays and, when necessary, develop alternative approaches
  • Proven ability to prioritize multiple projects to meet timelines while maintaining attention to detail and high-performance standards
  • Knowledge of statistical analysis methodology and bioinformatic tools with experience in bioinformatic analysis of large data sets such as those from next generation sequencing experiments
