Analytical/QC Project Chemist

We’re supporting the growth of a new specialist QC function within a dynamic, multi-site pharmaceutical operation across the UK. This is a project-focused role working alongside a dedicated validation team, supporting new product introductions, method development, and technical transfer across multiple UK sites.

You’ll play a key role in bringing new methods into GMP QC environments, scaling processes, and embedding robust validation practices across the network.

What you need to know

  • Multi-site role – based out of a North UK facility but with travel required across all UK sites
  • Working closely with a central validation team, while remaining part of the wider QC function
  • Reporting line into QC leadership, with strong project-based collaboration
  • Focus on new product introduction, validation and tech transfer before handover to local QC teams

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.
