Godmanchester, United Kingdom Cambridge Display Technology Ltd Full time

CDT’s exciting mission is to identify novel research opportunities which have the potential to create new business opportunities whilst also benefiting our wider society. We are committed to sustainable and ethical business practices and are uniquely positioned to support the changes required to build a better world. We thrive on collaboration to identify creative and innovative solutions to address key global challenges in the areas of environment, ICT, healthcare and food.

As a chemist in the high thermal conductivity materials team you will design, synthesise and characterise novel organic materials and organic-inorganic composites to meet technical requirements and produce proposals to evaluate, adapt and improve materials towards project targets. The role will involve working within an interdisciplinary team of chemists, physicists and material scientists, and collaboration with the Intellectual Property team and external Open Innovation partners.

You should have a PhD in Organic Chemistry, or alternatively a Chemistry degree coupled with relevant work experience.

We also offer all the usual benefits you would expect, including private health and dental insurance, life assurance, income protection insurance, an Employee Assistance Programme and a pension scheme.
