About Us

Exscientia is an AI-driven precision medicine company committed to discovering, designing and developing the best possible drugs in the fastest and most effective manner. Exscientia developed the first-ever functional precision oncology platform to successfully guide treatment selection and improve patient outcomes in a prospective interventional clinical study, as well as to progress AI-designed small molecules into the clinical setting.

Our internal pipeline is focused on leveraging our precision medicine platform in oncology, while our partnered pipeline broadens our approach to other therapeutic areas. By pioneering a new approach to medicine creation, we believe the best ideas of science can rapidly become the best medicines for patients.

The Role

As the Head of Structural Biology, you will have the opportunity to lead a high-performing team and drive the growth of our structure-based design capabilities across drug discovery portfolios. Working at the intersection of experimental structural biology, drug design, AI, physics, and informatics, you will be responsible for building technical solutions that increase the quality and efficiency of our design capability.

Please note this is a UK-based hybrid role and regular travel is required to our offices in Oxford, UK (approximately 2-3 days per week), with flexibility to work from home in the UK the remaining time. We are a flexible working organisation and we’re willing to consider other options which would provide similar contact time with the team.


You will have the opportunity to: 

  • Design industry leading strategies which enable structure-based design and the development of molecules to advance our drug discovery portfolio.
  • Utilise the latest advances in AI and experimental techniques to drive drug discovery programs and automate our approach to generate structures and accelerate structural insights.
  • Lead a small team of talented Structural Biologists (X-ray crystallography and cryo-EM) and foster a positive work environment that supports team growth.
  • Collaborate with our team of drug designers and AI/ML data scientists to enhance our structure-based design methods.
  • Manage structural biology resources and develop and implement strategies to deliver on portfolios.
  • Take an active role in target/tractability assessment and hit finding activities, especially fragment-based lead discovery.
  • Communicate and evangelise by sharing your work through internal and external presentations, conferences, or scientific publications, actively promoting our innovative approach.

Requirements

Essential skills:

  • PhD in Structural Biology, Biochemistry, Biophysics, Computational Sciences, or a related subject area.
  • Minimum of 8-10 years of experience in an industry setting, with particular focus on small molecules.
  • Proven ability to build and lead highly functioning cross-functional teams of scientists.
  • Experience with one or multiple structural biology techniques (e.g. X-ray and Cryo-EM, NMR or HDX-MS) and computationally literate to build computational pipelines.
  • Track record in protein sciences and experience working with a broad range of protein types.
  • Proven experience automating processes either in silico or experimental and the diagnostics needed to do so.
  • Excellent communication skills with a passion for fostering a collaborative work environment and ability to work productively with others.
  • Demonstrated scientific track record in publications, patent applications, conference posters, or oral presentations.

Desirable skills:

  • Familiarity with small molecule drug discovery projects.
  • Experience liaising with academic and industrial partners.
  • Proficiency in programming or leading programmers, preferably Python, for scripting, data analysis, pipeline, and tool development.

Benefits

  • Join our inclusive, collaborative and intellectually stimulating organisation with an exciting mission and strong values.

  • We employ brilliant people so we pay highly competitive salaries. Additionally, all our employees are eligible for a company-wide annual bonus and receive new joiner and annual share awards.
  • Enjoy our generous 28 days holiday allowance plus public holidays, with flexibility to carry over or purchase extra holidays.
  • We also offer flexible working to find a healthy work-life balance that works for you.
  • Create amazing memories or progress your personal and professional development with our four-week paid sabbatical after four years of service.
  • We’re leading the way in progressive leave offering enhanced policies so you feel supported no matter the life event. This includes generous parental, fertility, menopause and family emergency leave, and much more. 
  • Additionally, we support childcare costs for children aged 0-5 through our affordable childcare scheme.
  • Take advantage of two generous salary exchange schemes to claim discounts on a brand new electric vehicle and cycling equipment worth up to £3,500.
  • As a healthcare company, we understand the importance of health and wellbeing so we provide comprehensive private health insurance, dental and vision benefits for you and your family.
  • We also provide plenty of access to mental health support including therapy and counselling sessions plus an employee assistance program for help with lifestyle issues such as bereavement, family problems or money management.
  • To help safeguard the future for you and your loved ones, we also offer pension and life cover.
  • Have fun with colleagues at our in-person and remote social events! Get competitive at a quiz or bake off, or relax at a movie night or picnic - there’s something for everyone.
  • Collaborate with your team at our uplifting offices and choose a design-led breakout space to inspire creativity. Help yourself to free drinks, snacks and freshly ground coffee in our fully stocked kitchens. Some of the best ideas start with a coffee break!
  • Feel inspired in our high spec labs where you will use state-of-the-art equipment and instruments that empower you to do your best work.
