BioAssay Scientist

About this role

Unfortunately, we are unable to offer visa sponsorship for this role. This is a fulltime, permanent position, working a flexible 37 hour week, Monday – Friday. As a BioAssay Scientist you will perform routine, non-routine and stability testing activities of drug substances (biologics) within the client’s Analytical Service Department. Job Responsibilities that you be covering: You will perform a range of biological and analytical testing activities, including ELISA, cell-based and Biacore assays, accurately capturing and analysing data using laboratory software and electronic laboratory notebook systems.

You will generate, review, and maintain GMP-compliant documentation, records, reports, SOPs, protocols, and regulatory documentation, ensuring all work is completed accurately, on time, and to the highest quality standards. You will support laboratory operations through routine housekeeping, equipment maintenance, reagent and consumable stock management, trend analysis activities, and the investigation and resolution of technical, operational, and out-of-specification issues.

You will contribute to scientific excellence by supporting method development, validation, troubleshooting, continuous improvement initiatives, and the implementation of best practices to ensure reliable, reproducible, and compliant laboratory processes. You will build strong relationships with internal and external clients, responding to queries, communicating significant findings, participating in client and Eurofins meetings, and consistently delivering exceptional customer service aligned with client expectations and service goals.

You will maintain compliance with Eurofins, client, GMP, regulatory, quality, and safety requirements through continuous learning, training completion, knowledge sharing, mentoring colleagues where appropriate, and providing flexible support across the wider laboratory operation. What skills, qualifications and experiences you will hold as an BioAssay Scientist: You will hold a degree or higher qualification in a relevant scientific discipline, together with experience in a bioanalytical laboratory environment working to GMP, regulatory, and quality standards.

Practical experience in using Biacore is essential. You will hold practical experience in a range of bioanalytical techniques, including ELISA, aseptic techniques, cell-based and potency assays, with experience of pharmaceutical drug substance testing and Biacore assays being advantageous. You will hold strong technical laboratory skills, including experience of cell culture activities, Vi-Cell and manual cell counting, luminescence-based assays, flow cytometry, and the application of basic statistical analysis to support scientific decision-making.
