You'll also support lab operations, engage with scientific partners, and contribute to projects in automotive, aerospace, and renewable energy sectors.

What You'll Need:

  • Experience: At least 2 years in industrial fibre spinning (not lab-scale).
  • Expertise: Polymer/materials chemistry, fibre/textile production, and mechanical/material testing.
  • Desirable: Experience with advanced materials like aramids, composites, or liquid crystalline materials.

Why Join Us?

  • Flexible working hours.
  • Generous paid leave and company slowdowns in summer/Christmas.
  • Be part of a team shaping the future of sustainable materials.
