Immuno-Oncology Scientist / Senior Scientist

Liverpool Science Park

Help Shape the Future of Personalised Cancer Treatment

At Pierian Biosciences, we are transforming how cancer patients are assessed and treated through cutting-edge immune profiling and personalised medicine.

Based in the heart of Liverpool's thriving life sciences community, our team works at the interface of cancer biology, advanced diagnostics and pharmaceutical research. Every sample analysed and every dataset interpreted contributes to a deeper understanding of how the immune system interacts with cancer, helping clinicians and researchers make better-informed treatment decisions.

This is more than a laboratory role.

This is an opportunity to join a passionate and growing scientific team that is helping drive the next generation of personalised cancer care.

You'll work with advanced technologies, complex biological datasets and multidisciplinary experts who are committed to improving outcomes for patients whilst supporting innovative pharmaceutical research programmes.

Why Join Us?

  • Work on projects that directly support personalised cancer treatment strategies.
  • Play a key role in expanding our immuno-oncology and pharmaceutical support services.
  • Be part of a highly collaborative and passionate scientific team.
  • Work with leading-edge technologies including advanced spectral flow cytometry platforms.
  • Develop your technical expertise and broaden your scientific knowledge across multiple diagnostic and research disciplines.
  • Enjoy genuine opportunities to influence the future direction of a growing biotechnology organisation.
  • Be based in Liverpool Science Park, one of the UK's leading centres for life sciences innovation.

Essential Criteria

To be considered, candidates must demonstrate all three of the following:

1. Advanced Spectral Flow Cytometry Experience

You will have significant experience in spectral flow cytometry, including:

  • High-parameter multi-colour panel analysis.
  • Spectral unmixing and compensation.
  • Data quality assessment and troubleshooting.
  • Interpretation of complex flow cytometry datasets.

2. Strong Immuno-Oncology Knowledge

You will possess:

  • A background in immunology, tumour biology or immuno-oncology.
  • Experience understanding tumour microenvironments and immune responses.
  • The ability to translate biological findings into meaningful scientific insight.

3. Laboratory and Data Analysis Expertise

You will be comfortable:

  • Processing biological and tumour samples.
  • Working at the laboratory bench.
  • Analysing complex scientific datasets.
  • Combining practical scientific work with detailed data interpretation.

About You

You may come from academia, biotechnology, diagnostics or pharmaceutical research.

Most importantly, you will be:

  • Curious and scientifically driven; thriving on interpreting data.
  • Passionate about improving patient outcomes.
  • Comfortable working in a fast-moving and collaborative environment.
  • Committed to quality and scientific excellence.
  • Eager to continue learning and developing your expertise; and those of the team around you.
