London, Greater London, United Kingdom Deep Science Ventures Full time

Transforming the Plastic Packaging Market

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced professional to join our team at Deep Science Ventures as a Founder in Residence. This role is focused on addressing the global plastic packaging challenge and developing sustainable alternatives to traditional plastic packaging.

About the Opportunity

The plastic packaging market is expected to grow significantly in the coming years, with the market expected to reach USD 584.09 billion by 2032. However, the current plastic packaging system is unsustainable, with only 9% of plastic waste being recycled. Our goal is to develop advanced recycling technologies and enhance enabling infrastructure to reduce global plastic waste.

Requirements

We are looking for a candidate with a strong background in chemistry, materials science, biotechnology, or chemical engineering, and experience in building and scaling new technologies from concept to demonstration. The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of state-of-the-art technologies and constraints in areas such as CO2 conversion, biomass conversion, or plastic recycling technologies.

What We Offer

As a Founder in Residence at Deep Science Ventures, you will have access to optimized, purpose-built, proprietary tools, resources, and processes to help create high-impact ventures from scratch. You will also have the opportunity to work with a team of experienced operators who have founded companies and led the translation of science at some of the most respected universities, charities, funds, and government agencies.

About Deep Science Ventures

Deep Science Ventures is on a mission to create a future in which both humans and the planet can thrive. We use our unique venture creation process to create, spin-out, and invest in science companies, combining available scientific knowledge and founder-type scientists into high-impact ventures. We operate in four sectors—Pharmaceuticals, Climate, Agriculture, and Computation—and tackle the challenges defining these areas by taking a first principles approach and partnering with leading institutions.
