Open Positions

Process Chemist

Full-time

Nottingham,UK

18-Sep-2023

We have an exciting and challenging role for a Process Chemist to join Promethean’s Research and Development (R&D) team, to accelerate our pioneering work in the large-scale manufacture of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs).

In the role, you will be positioned at the interface of R&D and manufacturing, leading our efforts to transition laboratory-scale synthesis and processing through to pilot-scale, and further beyond. With Promethean’s unparalleled MOF manufacturing capabilities, this is a rare opportunity to be at the forefront of global MOF production and deployment. Your research will help the team solve problems other companies don’t know exist yet.

Working collaboratively with our R&D synthetic chemists, you will inform decisions at the laboratory scale that position us for the safe and effective scale-up of our MOF materials. You will deploy your own experience and knowledge of process chemistry to further establish our in-house methods and techniques for pilot-scale MOF production and processing, with a particular focus on exploiting the unique synthetic processing advantages that Promethean’s proprietary, patented continuous flow reactors allow.

Key Areas of Responsibility

The successful candidate should be excited at the prospect of playing a central role in Promethean’s mission to unleash the power of MOFs. They should recognise the need to work with intent and urgency in this rapidly evolving area, prioritising needs above wants, and appreciate the importance of effective teamwork and open communication when working in a small team.

Candidates should have:

A degree in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, or a related discipline, with PhD, post-doctoral or industrial experience considered an advantage.
Experience in the scale-up of synthetic chemistry methodologies, with experience in continuous-flow synthesis considered an advantage.
Experience in the processing of materials from suspension to solid state, with experience in forming techniques (e.g., granulation) considered an advantage.
Experience liaising with equipment manufacturers to identify solutions to challenges faced during scale-up, with a keenness to trialing and evaluating potential solutions.
A sound awareness of the considerations and complexities associated with scaled-up synthesis, ranging from materials handling, to reaction conditions, to product impact.
An awareness of experimental characterisation techniques, including powder X-ray diffraction (pXRD), surface area measurements, particle size analysis, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and electron microscopy (SEM/TEM).
Experience in the development and deployment of standard operating procedures (SOPs) for newly established processes.
A sound appreciation for the Health, Safety, and Environmental (HSE) implications associated with the production, processing, and handling of hazardous materials, including the production of risk and COSHH assessments.
An ability to proactively prioritise work across multiple projects within tight timelines, managing stakeholder expectations where appropriate.
An ability to effectively communicate technical results and concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences, through a variety of formats (written reports, presentations, etc.).
A willingness to travel, in support of conference or customer attendance (< 10% of time)
A right to work in the UK without restriction, as this role does not come with visa sponsorship.Qualifications, Skills and Experience
