Scientist I Analytical (new grad, entry level)

Senior Analytical Scientist – Pharmaceutical & Healthcare Analysis

As a member of the Analytical Sciences team, you will take responsibility for all aspects of the analysis of pharmaceutical and healthcare samples, utilising techniques such as LC-MS, GC-MS, and ICP-MS. The team specialises in cGMP analysis of final products, active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), and excipients, with a focus on impurity identification, method development, validation, and troubleshooting for sponsors.

Key Responsibilities

  • Adhere strictly to laboratory SOPs, ensuring cGMP compliance in record keeping and procedures.
  • Deliver right-first-time analytical data according to agreed schedules, employing techniques such as LC-MS, GC-MS, and other separation methods.
  • Provide verbal and written reports, both internally (e.g., to colleagues) and externally (e.g., for clients).
  • Engage in data review and process improvements to strengthen analytical workflows.
  • Contribute to the Quality Assurance programme, including laboratory audits, Scientific Investigations, and Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPAs).

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.
