From GBP 38,784 up to GBP 47,389 per year

Aston University is seeking a highly skilled, collaborative, and motivated Mass Spectrometry Scientist to support and advance the operations of our state-of-the-art Mass Spectrometry Laboratory. The Aston University mass spectrometry facility conducts world-class research across multiple analytical disciplines, with a strong focus on both lipidomics and proteomics, employing targeted and untargeted approaches to address complex biological and biomedical questions.

The successful candidate will bring hands-on experience in sample preparation for advanced mass spectrometry analyses. More experienced candidates will demonstrate proficiency with either one or more instruments from our portfolio, including high-resolution OrbitrapTM Ascend (ThermoFisher Scientific) and TWIMSTM (Waters) platforms, and low-resolution QqQ (e.g. Sciex, Waters), alongside a background in experimental design, workflow optimisation, and method development in qualitative and quantitative mass spectrometry.

In addition to providing scientific and technical expertise, the post-holder will play an important role in supporting the efficient and sustainable operation of the laboratory, including usage reporting and the coordination of access for both internal researchers and external collaborators or industry partners. The role offers the opportunity for advanced training, the chance to contribute to a dynamic, interdisciplinary research environment, and the ability to shape the strategic development of cutting-edge mass spectrometry capabilities at Aston University.
