About us
Biosciences is one of the world’s foremost centres for research and teaching in the biological sciences and one of the largest Divisions within UCL, undertaking a significant amount of research and teaching. The Division has a diverse portfolio addressing all areas of biology from protein interactions to cell function, organism development, genetics, population studies and the environment. Computational modelling approaches are frequently used alongside experimental research programmes and much of our research crosses traditional boundaries, including the relationship of biodiversity to the health of the planet. Activity is underpinned by high calibre science technology platforms and state of the art equipment. Educational activity includes a range of undergraduate programmes, an expanding number of Masters Programmes and a substantial number of postgraduate research students.
This is an exciting opportunity to join the UCL Biomolecular NMR Facility.
We seek an NMR spectroscopist to manage the UCL Biomolecular NMR Facility that comprises 800, 700, 600 and 500 MHz NMR spectrometers for biomolecular NMR, structural biology and an NMR metabolomics capability at 500 MHz.
About the role
The post holder will play a leading role in running the biomolecular NMR capability within the Department of Structural and Molecular Biology and provide expert guidance in experimental design and the most productive use of the NMR Facility for users. They will have responsibility for managing and developing the Facility.
There will be scope for the post holder to conduct research in collaboration with academic staff.
Interview Date(s) are scheduled for the first week of September 2024.
This appointment is subject to UCL Terms and Conditions of Service for Research and Professional Services Staff. Please visit https://www.ucl.ac.uk/human-resources/conditions-service-research-teaching-and-professional-services-staff for more information.
f you have any queries about the role, please contact Prof John Christodoulou ( j.christodoulou@ucl.ac.uk ) and Prof. D Flemming Hansen ( d.hansen@ucl.ac.uk ), the facility directors.

About you
You are able to provide technical expertise in experimental NMR methods and implement and optimize pulse sequences. You will liaise with lab leaders and members of user groups to ensure effective training in the operation of spectrometers, as well as data processing and analysis, and ensuring a smooth running of the facility. You must have a PhD in a Biological or Physical Science discipline relevant to NMR of proteins or nucleic acids. Significant, hands-on experience with heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy, including pulse sequence implementation as applied to biological macromolecules, is also essential.
