Scale-Up Chemist

Working within a growing technical team, the Scale-Up Chemist will support the development and scale‑up of novel chemical processes, contributing to the transition from R&D to production.

This role combines laboratory work, process optimisation and scale‑up activities, with the opportunity to contribute to technology transfer and production readiness.

 

The Scale-Up Chemist will be responsible for:

• Supporting the scale‑up of chemical processes to kilogram‑plus production.
• Delivering high‑purity materials for sampling, analysis and testing.
• Designing and executing process improvements.
• Contributing to technology transfer activities and production documentation.
• Supporting safety studies, including HAZID and HAZOP.
• Carrying out quality control and stage‑gate analysis of materials.

 

The Scale-Up Chemist will have:

• A degree (BSc/MChem/MSc or equivalent) in Chemistry or Chemical Engineering with relevant industrial experience.
• Experience working at scale using jacketed reactor vessels (≈10L or larger) or similar systems.
• Experience working with high‑purity materials and managing low‑level impurities.
• An analytical approach with experience tracking materials and processes.
• Experience carrying out safety and risk assessments within scale‑up processes.
• The ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative team.

 

This role offers the opportunity to be involved in scaling up innovative chemical processes within a fast‑growing environment.
