**Scope of the role**
Role purpose
● To drive research from discovery to development by delivering target molecules in an efficient, safe and sustainable way.
Key accountabilities
● Synthesis: Safe, sustainable, effective and independent execution of synthetic routes, partnering with key support platforms (e.g. automation, analytical, purification platforms) to maximise efficiency.
● Synthesis: Independent and collaborative design of efficient synthetic routes to target molecules and sets of molecules using knowledge, experience, and available digital tools.
● HSE: Carry out detailed risk assessment of experimental procedures and raw materials in line with Syngenta HSE standards.
● Documentation: Document and communicate experimental procedures and data with highest scientific accuracy and sufficient observational details to enable easy reproduction, retrieval, digital integration, and secure IP.
● Problem solving: Independent and collaborative problem solving and troubleshooting of synthetic chemistry within project.
● Knowledge: Maintain excellence in modern synthetic methods and technologies through continuous personal development.
● Continuous improvement: Contribute to continuous improvement of laboratories and ways of working, identifying, removing, and escalating blockers to increase laboratory safety and productivity.
**Qualifications**
Minimum qualification is a master’s degree or 3 – 5 years of industrial experience following full training through an apprenticeship program, both in synthetic chemistry
**Experience & Skills**
● Proficient in all aspects of synthetic organic chemistry, including reaction design, retrosynthesis, troubleshooting, purification and structural elucidation, all with high standards of HSE.
● Collaborative and self-motivated: works effectively within teams and able to deliver with autonomy.
● Comfortable working with software tools related to design of synthesis programs and analysis of synthesis data.
**Languages**
Proficiency in English is required. Other languages are valued
