Pharmaceutical Engineering – KTP Associate

This role offers an exciting opportunity to develop and embed expertise in formulation and processing related to high-pressure homogenisation applications, creating a strong knowledge base to support users in selecting optimal formulation and processing methods.

The successful candidate will be responsible for developing scalable protocols for homogenisation technology in natural dispersions, ensuring efficiency and consistency across different production scales. They will also refine nanosizing processes, optimising pressure and duration to achieve more efficient, reliable, and less complex applications. A key aspect of the role involves assessing the efficiency of scaled-up equipment to meet the demands of large-scale production for bulk products, providing expertise to guide customers in optimising their processing systems. Additionally, the Research Associate will contribute to the development of an internationalisation model, supporting the company’s expansion into diverse industries and markets.

This position offers an excellent opportunity to engage in cutting-edge research while working closely with industry partners to drive innovation, product development, and commercial impact. The role is well-suited to a researcher with expertise in formulation science, process engineering, or a related field, with strong problem-solving skills and a commitment to applied research.

Although you’ll be employed by ARU, you’ll be based at Stansted Homogenising Systems’ offices in Harlow, Essex.

The project will develop insight, knowledge and expertise in scaling high pressure homogenisation technology for large scale applications.
