About This Role
Parexel is looking for a Senior Associate Biomarker Data Scientist to work with one of our large sponsors. The role is remote based but you must live and have the right to work in one of the following EMEA countries only: United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, Romania, Serbia, Lithuania, Poland.
The Senior Associate Biomarker Data Scientist is a quantitative data science role that supports analysis, pipeline execution, maintenance, and enhancements to established biomarker analytics workflows. The role may also assist in the development of tools for operational program tracking and shared AI-assisted coding standards. The position may also involve running and tuning existing pipelines (including flow cytometry automated gating), and well-scoped improvements to ensure deliverables and analyses are delivered on time.
Job Responsibilities
Pipeline and R Package Development
- Runs, monitors, and maintains existing analysis pipelines, internal R packages, and report templates including interactive data exploration tools
- Version control & collaboration: contribute via git (branching, pull requests, code review), and coordinate handoffs.
Data Operations and QC
- Manage end-to-end data flow: requesting data from BDM, tracking delivery, organizing on internal servers with proper folder structure and data cut documentation.
- Prepare and send sample lists to sample management and other departments upon request
- Works with scientists to harmonize heterogeneous formats, for the ongoing ingestion of biomarker data into common data formats
- Reproducibility & QC: maintain run logs, validate outputs against expected formats/metrics, and ensure raw vs processed outputs are stored according to team conventions.
- Support project & deliverable trackers: maintain a robust tracking system for analysis/pipeline deliverables (status, owners, due dates, dependencies, links to locations), and provide concise visibility for stakeholders.
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.
