This is more than a laboratory role.
This is an opportunity to join a passionate and growing scientific team that is helping drive the next generation of personalised cancer care.
You'll work with advanced technologies, complex biological datasets and multidisciplinary experts who are committed to improving outcomes for patients whilst supporting innovative pharmaceutical research programmes.
Why Join Us?
- Work on projects that directly support personalised cancer treatment strategies.
- Play a key role in expanding our immuno-oncology and pharmaceutical support services.
- Be part of a highly collaborative and passionate scientific team.
- Work with leading-edge technologies including advanced spectral flow cytometry platforms.
- Develop your technical expertise and broaden your scientific knowledge across multiple diagnostic and research disciplines.
- Enjoy genuine opportunities to influence the future direction of a growing biotechnology organisation.
- Be based in Liverpool Science Park, one of the UK's leading centres for life sciences innovation.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
