Scientist / Senior Scientist – Drug Discovery (Antibodies)


Are you a passionate scientist with a strong foundation in immunology and antibody characterisation? Looking to play a key role in early-stage drug discovery for inflammatory diseases?


THE COMPANY

This cutting-edge biotech is redefining the landscape of drug discovery by harnessing the power of human genomics and machine learning. With a proprietary 3D genomics platform, they uncover disease mechanisms hidden in the non-coding genome and identify novel, first-in-class therapeutic targets. Their unique approach combines wet-lab science with computational biology to drive the discovery of antibody therapeutics rooted in real human biology.

You’ll be working in a company that rewards performance and has a strong track record of developing its employees. As a result, you’ll have the opportunity to progress your career at an accelerated rate, entirely determined by your own performance, while working on truly groundbreaking research that could change the way medicines are developed.


JOB ROLE

In this lab-based role, you will be responsible for designing and executing assays to assess antibody function, characterise immune cell responses, and elucidate mechanisms of action in primary human immune cells. Focusing on human genetic causes of disease, you’ll be advancing drug programmes rooted in human biology, vastly increasing their chances of success.

Working collaboratively across project teams, you will be immersed in a science-first, purpose- driven environment where you’ll push the limits of biology. You will be encouraged to speak up and your voice will be valued along with the expertise you bring.


ABOUT YOU

You will thrive in this position if you have:

  • Excellent drug discovery experience, ideally in Biotech/Pharma
  • Proven experience designing and executing immune cell assays, especially with primary human cells.
  • Strong expertise in multiparameter flow cytometry, functional immunoassays (e.g., proliferation, cytokine release), and antibody formats (Fc, ADCC, SPR, etc.).
  • Hands-on knowledge of antibody therapeutic drug discovery or development.

Also of interest, but not required, are:

  • An immunology background
  • Knowledge of regulatory T cell (Treg) biology or immunological disease models.


If this sounds like your kind of challenge, apply now or reach out to for more information.

Machine‑Learning Jobs for Non‑Technical Professionals: Where Do You Fit In?

The Model Needs More Than Math When ChatGPT went viral and London start‑ups raised seed rounds around “foundation models,” many professionals asked, “Do I need to learn PyTorch to work in machine learning?” The answer is no. According to the Turing Institute’s UK ML Industry Survey 2024, 39 % of advertised ML roles focus on strategy, compliance, product or operations rather than writing code. As models move from proof‑of‑concept to production, demand surges for specialists who translate algorithms into business value, manage risk and drive adoption. This guide reveals the fastest‑growing non‑coding ML roles, the transferable skills you may already have, real transition stories and a 90‑day action plan—no gradient descent necessary.

Quantexa Machine‑Learning Jobs in 2025: Your Complete UK Guide to Joining the Decision‑Intelligence Revolution

Money‑laundering rings, sanctioned entities, synthetic identities—complex risks hide in plain sight inside data. Quantexa, a London‑born scale‑up now valued at US $2.2 bn (Series F, August 2024), solves that problem with contextual decision‑intelligence (DI): graph analytics, entity resolution and machine learning stitched into a single platform. Banks, insurers, telecoms and governments from HSBC to HMRC use Quantexa to spot fraud, combat financial crime and optimise customer engagement. With the launch of Quantexa AI Studio in February 2025—bringing generative AI co‑pilots and large‑scale Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to the platform—the company is hiring at record pace. The Quantexa careers portal lists 450+ open roles worldwide, over 220 in the UK across data science, software engineering, ML Ops and client delivery. Whether you are a graduate data scientist fluent in Python, a Scala veteran who loves Spark or a solutions architect who can turn messy data into knowledge graphs, this guide explains how to land a Quantexa machine‑learning job in 2025.

Machine Learning vs. Deep Learning vs. MLOps Jobs: Which Path Should You Choose?

Machine Learning (ML) continues to transform how businesses operate, from personalised product recommendations to automated fraud detection. As ML adoption accelerates in nearly every industry—finance, healthcare, retail, automotive, and beyond—the demand for professionals with specialised ML skills is surging. Yet as you browse Machine Learning jobs on www.machinelearningjobs.co.uk, you may encounter multiple sub-disciplines, such as Deep Learning and MLOps. Each of these fields offers unique challenges, requires a distinct skill set, and can lead to a rewarding career path. So how do Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and MLOps differ? And which area best aligns with your talents and aspirations? This comprehensive guide will define each field, highlight overlaps and differences, discuss salary ranges and typical responsibilities, and explore real-world examples. By the end, you’ll have a clearer vision of which career track suits you—whether you prefer building foundational ML models, pushing the boundaries of neural network performance, or orchestrating robust ML pipelines at scale.
