Research Scientist Downstream Process Development (DSP)

Role: Full-time, permanent

Location: Harrow, North West London

Salary: Competitive + bonus + benefits

The Role:

The Research Scientist (DSP) will help to design, optimise, and scale downstream purification processes for therapeutic biologics, including monoclonal antibodies and proteins, supporting biosimilar development and commercialisation. The role spans early- and late-stage process development, including process characterisation, scale-up, and technology transfer.

It also focuses on platform process development, process intensification (including continuous purification), and viral safety strategies, ensuring processes are robust, scalable, and compliant with regulatory and quality requirements.

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.
