Career Opportunities Xceleron

Career Opportunities

Xceleron is the worlds first company applying Accelerator Mass Spectrometry in biomedical research. Serving the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, the Company has already made a significant impact in accelerating drug development. Xceleron aims to maintain its world lead by remaining at the cutting edge of analytical technologies.

If you would like to be a part of our team, please send your curriculum vitae to Deborah Edwards (deborah.edwards@xceleron.com). We look forward to hearing from you.

We are looking to fill the following positions in our Maryland, US site;

Chief Scientific Officer - This will be a critical role within Xceleron Inc. The CSO will be the senior technical "face" of Xceleron, Inc. S/he will be a very important spokesman for the company, particularly within the scientific community and will also be a thought leader. Given the relatively early stage of development and acceptance of Xceleron’s technology the ability to convince a broad range of audiences, large and small, of the value of the technology is critical. Hence a high level of scientific and personal credibility is critical and this must be accompanied by very high levels of communication and interpersonal skills. We are seeking someone who has some or all of the following qualifications and experience:

o A very strong appreciation and understanding of the drug development process, particularly the early stages, based on first hand experience
o 10-15 years of leadership experience ideally in both a "big pharma" company and a development stage firm. This experience will ideally be at the interface of the pre-clinical and clinical stages of drug development, but with a requirement that s/he has meaningful clinical (Phase I/II) experience and strong understanding of pharmacokinetics
o A track record of achievement and ideally publications that will result in a high degree of scientific credibility among his/her peers in the pharmaceutical industry and will add to the reputation of Xceleron as a firm with very solid science both in the industry and with potential investors and/or acquirers
o Meaningful experience interfacing with regulatory bodies such as FDA and EMEA
o Experience of developing drugs for cancer and/or CNS diseases would be attractive
o International experience/exposure and project management experience would be very attractive
o A Ph.D. and post-doctoral experience from academic institutions with very strong reputations.

Study Directors – Minimum first degree, or equivalent, in Chemistry / Biochemistry / Pharmacology or related subject. Higher degree (MSc or PhD) also required. You must have at least five years experience in the pharmaceutical, or related industry (eg CRO) within metabolism and pharmacokinetics. This may be with laboratory animal studies but work with human radiolabelled studies would be an advantage. Preferably with one or two years experience as a Study Director or Principal Investigator. The preference is for experience with radiolabelled studies as opposed to purely bioanalysis. Experience working to GLP or other relevant quality standard is essential.

Analysts – educated to bachelors or masters level in chemistry / biochemistry / pharmacology or related subject. You must have at least two years experience in the pharmaceutical, or related industry (eg CRO) within metabolism, pharmacokinetics or HPLC bioanalysis. This may be with laboratory animal studies but work with human radiolabelled studies would be an advantage. Experience working to GLP or other relevant quality standard is essential.
