Scientist - DMPK

• Perform routine in vitro ADME assays such as microsomal stability, plasma stability, solubility, permeability, CYP inhibition, and plasma protein binding assays

• Develop, optimise, and execute analytical methods using LC-MS/MS and complementary detection modalities (absorbance/fluorescence-based assays)

• Support development and validation of new ADME assays to expand the group’s scientific capabilities

• Process and analyse experimental data using GraphPad Prism, MS Excel, and mass spectrometry software platforms (e.g., Sciex)

• Prepare clear experimental documentation, study summaries, and reports for internal teams and external collaborators

• Coordinate with third-party collaborators for pharmacokinetic (PK) studies, including in vivo animal studies where applicable

• Present experimental results and scientific observations in internal meetings, project reviews, and cross-functional discussions

• Work closely with colleagues across biology, and ADME groups to provide integrated drug discovery support alongside chemistry teams

• Support laboratory operations including reagent ordering, inventory management, assay consumables tracking, and coordination of laboratory logistics
