Analytical Chemist Farnham

Analytical Chemist

Analytical Chemists develop and perform methods to identify, quantify, and characterize pharmaceutical substances and formulations. They play a critical role in R&D, quality control, and regulatory submissions.

Typical activities include:

• Developing new analytical methods – For impurities, assay, and dissolution using HPLC, GC, MS, and spectroscopy techniques.

• Conducting forced degradation and stability testing – To support ICH-compliant studies.

• Analyzing formulation components – Ensuring consistency and accuracy in tablet, injectable, or topical drug products.

• Documenting in compliance with GMP – Preparing protocols, reports, and contributing to CMC sections of regulatory filings.

• Collaborating with formulation and process development teams – To support product lifecycle from early development through commercialization.

This role suits scientists with a strong understanding of chemical properties, instrumentation, and ICH/FDA guidance.​

Farnham

Farnham is an attractive town in Surrey in South East England approximately 35 miles from London, 11 miles from Guildford and 20 miles from Basingstoke.  Farnham has a very long history, with artefacts from the Stone, Bronze and Iron Age having been discovered.   Farnham Castle was the scene of many battles during the Civil War when the town supported the Parliamentarians rather than the Royalists.  In the ensuing years Farnham grew into a successful market town and, with the arrival of the railway, a popular commuter town.   Visitor attractions within easy reach of Farnham include Waverley Abbey, the first Cistercian Abbey in England, the Surrey Hills Area, the North Downs Way, Alice Holt Forest and Frensham Ponds.
