Job description

The Ellison Institute of Technology (EIT) Oxford tackles humanity's greatest challenges by turning science and technology into impactful global solutions. Focused on areas like health, food security, sustainable agriculture, climate change, clean energy, and AI & Robotics, EIT Oxford blends groundbreaking research with practical applications to deliver lasting results.

A cornerstone of EIT Oxford's mission is its upcoming 300,000-square-foot research facility at the Oxford Science Park, set to open in 2027. This cutting-edge campus will feature advanced labs, an oncology and preventative care clinic, and collaborative spaces to strengthen its partnership with the University of Oxford. It will also host the Ellison Scholars, driving innovation for societal benefit.

The Pathogen Mission highlights EIT's transformative approach, using Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) and Oracle's cloud technology to create a global pathogen metagenomics system. This initiative aims to improve diagnostics, provide early epidemic warnings, and guide treatments by profiling antimicrobial resistance. The goal is to deliver certified diagnostic tools for widespread use in labs, hospitals, and public health.

EIT Oxford fosters a culture of collaboration, innovation, and resilience, valuing diverse expertise to drive sustainable solutions to humanity's enduring challenges.

The role emphasises metagenomics but also includes a range of sequencing and non-sequencing-based approaches. Ideal candidates will have strong experience with sequencing technologies, and a proven track record of developing end-to-end clinical diagnostic applications in either academic or industrial environments.

  • Engage with industry and academic experts to identify and assess promising new technologies relevant to the aims and objectives of the team
  • To effectively transfer working prototype designs to verification and validation team and contribute to verification and validation experimental design
  • Build and lead a small team of scientists to deliver on team objectives

  • A PhD in a relevant scientific discipline (e.g. molecular biology, genomics, microbiology, or a related field)
  • In-depth expertise in genomics and/or metagenomics
  • Strong foundation in molecular biology techniques and applications
  • Demonstrated experience in laboratory operations and personnel management
  • A proven track record of achievement in academic and/or industrial research settings
  • Hands-on experience in the design, development, and prototyping of molecular assays, particularly in areas such as infectious diseases, oncology, human genetics, plant or food pathogens, or veterinary diagnostics
  • Experience collaborating within multidisciplinary teams, with the ability to effectively communicate across scientific domains


Desirable Knowledge, Skills, and Experience:

  • Background in microbiology and/or infectious diseases
  • Familiarity with clinical metagenomics applications and workflows
  • Foundational skills in bioinformatics, particularly in the analysis of genomic or metagenomic data


Key Attributes:

  • Innovative thinker with a proactive approach to problem-solving and technology development
  • Strong troubleshooting skills, with the ability to identify and resolve complex technical issues
  • Highly organised, with excellent time management and prioritisation abilities
  • Effective communicator with strong presentation skills and a proven track record of delivering to diverse audiences
  • Demonstrated ability in technology horizon scanning and staying abreast of emerging scientific trends
  • Proven leadership skills, with experience guiding teams and driving projects to successful outcomes
