Genetic Engineer / Senior Genetic Engineer (Plant Crops)
You are a hands-on plant scientist with strong molecular biology expertise. You enjoy working at the bench, solving complex biological problems, and translating fundamental science into real-world applications.
You want to work in a fast-paced, ambitious biotech where your work directly contributes to solving global challenges like food security and sustainable agriculture.
We are partnering with an exciting University of Manchester spinout developing a completely new frontier in crop technology. Their focus is on engineering chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes to introduce high-impact traits into major crop species. This approach unlocks advantages not possible through traditional nuclear genome engineering, including higher expression, stability, and non-Mendelian inheritance.
This is a rare opportunity to join at an early stage and directly contribute to building a new category of agricultural biotechnology. You will work closely with the founding team and R&D colleagues to develop and deliver cytoplasmic traits across multiple crop species.
THE ROLE:
As a Plant Scientist, you will play a key role in designing, executing, and delivering experimental work to enable cytoplasmic trait development.
