This would have preferably been gained working with viral vectors such as LVV, AAV or AV. * Experience with chromatography systems such as Akta Purifier/Pure/Avant and a good understanding of chromatography techniques e.g., IEX/SEC/HIC/Affinity. Experience and understanding of tangential flow filtration are also desirable. Experience of scale-up of downstream processes to pilot scale would be a bonus. * Experience of routine analytical techniques such as SDS-PAGE, Western Blotting and biochemical assays is desirable. * Experience in the application DoE. * Knowledge of regulatory requirements for the development and manufacture of biologics using from mammalian cell culture is desirable. *To Apply* If you would like to discuss this vacancy further or to discuss your career options in confidence, please telephone on (0) or email on We are an equal opportunities Recruitment Business and Agency.
