Job description

We are seeking an enthusiastic and talented scientist for a 6 month contract to complete work to analyse CBD compounds and concentrations, that began under a KTP project. This is a commercially focused collaboration between ADSL (Advanced Development & Safety Laboratories Limited) and the University of Plymouth. You will be based at the University of Plymouth with periodic travel to ADSL near Paignton, Devon.
This is a very interesting and challenging role for a qualified scientist to work on a joint project between ADSL and the University of Plymouth. The key objective of this role is to finalise and complete two work packages. Firstly, to compare an analytical method developed on HPLC against a similar method on LC-MS. Secondly, to develop an academic paper to summarise the new method and the findings of the comparison study.
This is a commercially important piece of work that will bring this collaboration to a satisfactory conclusion and will generate important outputs.
There may also be the opportunity for continued employment with ADSL upon successful completion of this project.
