Exciting new technology
Start up opportunity
2-Year Term
CeramiSphere is a business unit of the Australian Nuclear
Science and Technology Organisation. We are commercialising an
innovative encapsulation and controlled release technology and will
eventually become a separate commercial entity. CeramiSphere staff come
from a range of scientific backgrounds including chemists, material
scientists and chemical engineers who share the common goal of
enhancing and developing CeramiSphere technologies for commercial
applications. Please visit our website: http://www.ceramisphere.com.au for more information.
This is a hands-on position in the laboratory, involving
primarily experimental work, collecting data and assessing and
presenting results in written and oral format. The experimental work is
in the field of encapsulation of active materials inside ceramic micro
and nano particles for commercial applications such as drug delivery,
controlled release of biocides/bactericides and controlled release of
active ingredients for cosmeceuticals and nutraceuticals.
If you have recently graduated with a B.Sc (Biochemistry) or
higher degree and think that you will get a buzz out of helping us
transform concepts into commercial products, we want to talk to you.
Ideally you will have up to 5 years post-graduate experience (and
recent graduates are encouraged to apply). Knowledge and/or experience
in protein characterisation, pharmacology or drug development would be
highly regarded.
This is a two year term appointment with an attractive salary
package depending on your qualifications and experience and the
possibility of extension. To be eligible for engagement, the applicant
will require security clearance and medical assessment and must be a
permanent Australian resident.
