This senior level position is located in the Centre for Cancer Immunology at Southampton General Hospital, a newly constructed research building resulting from a significant fund-raising campaign. The centre, being the first dedicated cancer immunology centre in the UK, continues a 40-year history of pioneering immunology and cancer research at Southampton. From pioneering discovery science to applied research, preclinical modelling, and first-in-human clinical trials, the activities at this centre are comprehensive. The world-class facilities include state-of-the-art scientific laboratories and a clinical trials unit. This position is associated with the laboratory of Professors Sally Ward and Raimund Ober, focusing on protein engineering to develop novel antibody-based therapeutics. The interdisciplinary research program has led to approved therapeutics and is supported by major grants from Wellcome Trust, Cancer Research UK, and collaborating biopharma companies. The appointee will oversee in vitro and in vivo cellular assays, with a strong track record in analyzing the behavior of antibody or protein-based therapeutics. Responsibilities include managing research projects, supervising junior technicians, and training laboratory members in immunological and in vivo techniques. The appointee will work collaboratively within the group, contributing to research productivity. Professional development and career advancement opportunities are abundant and actively encouraged. The ideal candidate should have scientific knowledge equivalent to a Ph.D. level with 2-3 years of additional experience, expertise in immunological assays, flow cytometry, microscopy analyses, and project management skills. While experience in expressing and purifying recombinant proteins/antibodies is desirable, it is not essential. Relevant academic qualifications, work experience, and good IT skills are required. This position is open to non-UK/non-EU citizens as well. The initial term of this position in the Ward/Ober laboratory is two years, limited by the current grant support.
