About the Role

The National Physical Laboratory's Manufacturing Metrology Group is seeking a highly skilled and experienced Principal Scientist to provide scientific leadership and strategic direction to the team.

As a key member of the group, you will be responsible for continuing to evolve the group's strategy to deliver impactful, high-quality research and commercial services to the manufacturing industry.

You will join the group at an exciting time, with a clear overall strategic direction, but a need to refine this further and establish more detail in specific areas.

About You

We are looking for a scientist with a minimum of 5 years of experience in one of the technologies we work in, including CMM, non-contact measurement, image analysis, or XCT.

You should have an interest in and be open to learning about other areas, and be comfortable working with a multidisciplinary team with diverse backgrounds.

A relevant academic qualification to at least degree level, ideally a Master's or PhD in an engineering or science subject, is essential.

The group works extensively with the manufacturing industry, and you should demonstrate experience in scoping and delivering projects within or in collaboration with industrial companies.

Essential Skills

Commitment to Health, Safety, and Quality

Experience in writing successful applications for Innovate and/or Horizon projects

Ability to lead teams of scientists, although not necessarily in a line management role

Strong written and verbal communication skills

Technical business development

Proven expertise in one of the key group technical areas

Ability to define and deliver on scientific strategy

Strong problem definition and problem-solving skills

We actively recruit citizens of all backgrounds, but the nature of our work in specific departments means that nationality, residency, and security requirements can be more tightly defined than others.

To work at NPL, you will need to obtain BPSS security clearance.
