  • Define appropriate approaches and methodologies for generation, analysis, and interpretation of immunological data to support non-animal safety assessment
  • Work closely with other SERS and Unilever scientists, as well as external collaborators, to provide expert scientific advice on risk assessment of potential immune effects
  • Stay informed on emerging trends bringing new thinking and opportunities into the team applicable to immune effects risk assessment
  • Contribute to the development and application of AI/machine learning (ML) solutions that enable predictive insights and automation of risk assessment of potential immune effects
  • Provide training to both expert and non-expert users within the organisation, and support development of other SERS scientists via coaching/mentoring as appropriate
  • Promote the acceptance and adoption of new scientific approaches external to Unilever

Requirements:

  • A master’s or PhD degree in immunology, immunotoxicology, or a related scientific discipline, or equivalent previous experience working in industry
  • Knowledge of immunological mechanisms involved in, and the public health implications of, immediate allergies
  • Strong literature mining and writing skills
  • Strong problem definition and trouble shooting skills
  • Enjoy challenging goals and problem solving in a fast-moving environment, keeping pace with advances in non-animal approaches to immunotoxicology
  • Highly self-motivated, yet team orientated
  • Ability to work with scientists from other disciplines to understand and define problems
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to effectively communicate complex ideas to technical and non-technical audiences

Nice to have:

  • A few years industrial/consulting/postdoc experience
  • Experience of conducting immunotoxicology and/or protein allergy risk assessment for consumer safety
  • Project leadership experience
  • The ability to interpret protein analysis data
  • Familiarity or experience using structural bioinformatics tools including protein sequence homology analysis, protein structure visualisation, and structure prediction
  • Exposure to AI/ML applications in a business or scientific context
