Job Description
Senior Analytical Scientist
We have an enthusiastic and dynamic team developing highly advanced and novel battery
technology. We have a position for a Senior Analytical Scientist, working under the supervision of
the Basic Research Team Leader, to assist in the fundamental understanding of existing battery
materials and the development of new materials for application in energy storage devices including
Li-ion batteries.
We are looking for someone with a strong materials analysis and characterisation background,
preferably up to PhD level, combined with research laboratory experience. The work will be part inhouse laboratory based in conjunction with conducting a range of materials characterisation
techniques at external research facilities. The role will also offer the opportunity for the individual to
identify new classes of material for energy storage and analytical techniques for existing battery
materials. The objective of this research role is to support the advancement of the existing core
anode technology and the development of next generation energy storage technologies and their
associated intellectual property. Previous experience with batteries and lithium rechargeable
batteries in particular would be an advantage but is not essential. Being adaptable and having the
ability to work well within a team are also important.
Nexeon Limited is a spin-off from Imperial College London and is based in South Oxfordshire. We are
a research based company developing advanced anode technology for use in Li-ion batteries. The
potential of Nexeon’s battery technology has already been recognised with participation on the
recent UK government sponsored Cool and Clean mission to the US and with two Rushlight awards
including one for Clean Energy. As a result of our success and to support the next phase of
commercialisation of our technology we are going through a second round of recruitment to expand
our existing team of scientists and engineers. As a result of this expansion Nexeon will be moving to
new premises in Milton Park. The role is a full time permanent position. We will offer a competitive
remuneration package based on the skills and previous experience of the successful candidate.
If you think you have the right skills and would like to join a small, growing and enthusiastic team
working in an exciting area of technology we would like to hear from you. To apply for this role
please send your application letter and CV to hr@nexeon.co.uk.
