**Job Details**:
The Rosalind Franklin Institute (the Franklin) is a national research centre, funded by the UK government through UK Research and Innovation, dedicated to bringing about transformative changes in life science through interdisciplinary research and technology.

Within the Davis group in the Next Generation Chemistry theme, one of the aims is to develop new synthetic chemical methods to edit complex biomolecules as a form of post-translational mutagenesis. Specifically, this project will develop new methods for the manipulation of complex protein constructs [see e.g. _Nature, _**2020**_, 585, _530]. Within this theme, you will expand on these discoveries and develop new methods for chemical manipulation of proteins to probe fundamental biology and medicine. The post, which is for 3 years, reports to the Franklin’s Theme Lead for Chemistry (Ben Davis), as well as key academic collaborators and will work alongside other researchers in the Franklin and at partner university institutes including at the University of Oxford (where some groups are jointly based).

**Responsibilities**
- You will:
- Embrace the primary project of the role, namely developing new chemistries that may be applied to complex protein architectures and characterizing their consequences chemically, structurally and functionally.
- Collaborate with industrial and academic partners (especially on fundamental biological consequences).
- Collaborate with other researchers on design hypotheses.
- Work with other themes and researchers to develop the burgeoning Franklin environment to be as suitable as possible for such work, especially partners in omics and synthetic biology.
- Develop the scientific scope of the project, formulate relevant research questions, conduct individual research, analysing detailed and complex qualitative and/or quantitative data from a variety of sources, and generate original ideas by building on existing concepts.
- Work together with the surrounding facilities to ensure efficient protein production and chemistry at the Franklin and Harwell environment.
- Publish research articles in leading academic journals.
- Present findings at national and international meetings/conferences.
- Take a formal or informal role (as required) in the supervision of research students, including recruitment, mentorship and career development.
- Participate in and support the public engagement and widening access activities of the Franklin.
- Any other duties that come up in the normal running of the facility and that can be reasonably requested of the post-holder.

**In return we offer**:

- 25 days holidays plus bank holidays and Christmas holiday shutdown
- Generous pension scheme (employer’s contribution currently up to 18%)
- Group Life Assurance (also known as Group Life Insurance or Death in Service)
- Hub building with state-of-the-art laboratories
- Training and development opportunities for staff at all levels
- Bus pass discount scheme and good transport links to Oxford and surrounding areas
- Cycle to Work Scheme
- Access to employee discount platform (Perkbox)
- Occupational Health and wellbeing support including Employee Assistance (24/7 support and counselling)
- Health Cash Plan
- Subsidised canteen and food outlets on campus
- Free on-site parking
- Campus location in beautiful countryside with social and sports clubs open to staff

About us: The Rosalind Franklin Institute is a new national Research Centre, funded by the UK government through UK Research and Innovation, dedicated to bringing about transformative changes in life science through interdisciplinary research and technology.
