Work for us
XCellR8 is an exciting, challenging and rewarding place to work. Based at the prestigious National Innovation Campus at Sci-Tech Daresbury in Cheshire, our team all work towards our shared mission of accelerating the world’s transition to 100% animal-free testing.
The company is structured into the talented lab team, the eagle-eyes in Quality Assurance (QA) and savvy commercial experts covering finance, sales and marketing. That means we’re always keen to hear from scientists with experience in human cell culture techniques, those at the beginning of a career in life sciences who want to gain experience of working in animal-free conditions or business development specialists with a relevant technical background.
We’re often asked if you have to be vegetarian or vegan to work here, and the answer is no. It’s a complex personal decision and not one we’d ever make a prerequisite of joining XCellR8.
