PATENT AND BUSINESS ANALYST
GODMANCHESTER
CDT’s exciting mission is to identify novel research opportunities which have the potential to create new business opportunities whilst also benefiting our wider society. We are committed to sustainable and ethical business practices and are uniquely positioned to support the changes required to build a better world. We thrive on collaboration to identify creative and innovative solutions to address key global challenges in the areas of environment, ICT, healthcare and food.
Vibrant and diverse, we encourage all our employees to develop their technical expertise with us, with the freedom to promote their ideas in an inclusive and supportive environment. Take a look at our website for more - www.cdtltd.co.uk
As the Patent and Business Analyst within our Business Intelligence team you will deliver the business intelligence that will help guide CDT’s research and innovation teams by developing comprehensive patent search strategies, analysing the output and using visualisation tools to clearly communicate the analysis. The analysis will be combined with business intelligence gathered from non-patent sources to provide reports to the search requestors.
Ideally with a PhD in Chemistry, Physics, or Biochemistry, or a first degree and relevant work experience in a research position, you can add value to our mission with your desire and ability to understand technology areas that are unfamiliar to you, coupled with your aptitude for, and experience of, performing efficient and accurate reiterative searches to yield highly relevant but succinct datasets, extracting insights, and communicating the results. Relevant work experience involving patent searching and analysis would be advantageous but not essential as training will be provided.
With outstanding interpersonal skills and the ability to communicate technical concepts to all audiences, you will be self-motivated and proactive, with creative and inventive problem-solving abilities. You must understand and thrive on the demands of driven industrial research and be able to demonstrate that you work with the same drive and passion as all our teams.
We offer a friendly and fun working environment and welcome applicants from all backgrounds, as we firmly believe flexibility and diversity enhances our research excellence. We offer a fantastic holiday allowance (27 days for full time employees), bank holidays, an additional day off to celebrate your birthday and a day off for you to undertake voluntary work aligned with our values. In addition, we have flexi-time and home-working arrangements. Where appropriate, we will cover the costs of visa sponsorship and provide relocation support if you require this in order to work with us.
We also offer all the usual benefits you would expect, including private health and dental insurance, life assurance, income protection insurance, an Employee Assistance Programme and a pension scheme. It goes without saying that our salaries are also pretty good, supported by a generous sign-on bonus to welcome you and help ease the move to CDT.
