Downstream Process Development Scientist 12-month maternity cover Darlington 32,500 - 40,500 per annum + attractive benefitsAbout the Role CPI is seeking a hands-on Downstream Process Development Scientist to join their bioprocessing team in Darlington on a 12-month maternity cover. This is a practical, lab-based role focused on the design, development, and optimisation of downstream purification processes for advanced biologics. You will play a key role in delivering DSP activities across a range of modalities, including viral vectors and nucleic acid-based products, in a fast-moving and highly experimental environment. Reporting into the DSP leadership team, you will be expected to hit the ground running in the lab - running experiments, solving problems, and adapting processes, as projects evolve. This role suits someone who enjoys flexibility and scientific creativity rather than rigid, highly constrained environments.
