Job Purpose The post holder will be based at the Cancer Research UK-Scotland Institute (CRUK-SI) in Glasgow , working with Principal Investigator, Dr Stephen Carter, and in collaboration with Prof. Martin Bushell at the CRUK-SI. CRUK-SI is one of the world's leading cancer research centres. It supports cutting edge discovery research into the molecular mechanisms of cancer development. This ambitious project is funded by a UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship (FLF), initially for 18 months with a potential for a three year extension, and focuses on investigating the architecture of PML bodies and other nuclear condensates. We are looking to recruit a structural or cellular biologist to develop and apply ultrastructural methodologies at the heart of this project using cryo electron tomography (cryo ET) combined with cryogenic correlated light and electron microscopy (cryo CLEM) and cryo focused ion beam (cryo FIB) milling. This programme will involve state of the art imaging approaches to visualise molecular details of the intricate relationships between chromatin and nuclear condensates. The successful candidate will be trained in how to apply cryo ET coupled with fluorescence to map key functional proteins and contribute to the study of the molecular mechanisms governing the assembly, composition and function of PML bodies and other nuclear condensates. The ideal candidate will have experience in molecular biology, cryo EM sample preparation techniques, processing skills of cryo tomograms, and be self motivated in designing and executing cryo ET experiments. The Cancer Research UK Scotland Institute has access to instrumentation in the Scottish Centre for Macromolecular Imaging (SCMI) , such as the JEOL CRYO ARM 300 electron microscope, Leica EM GP2, a cryo FIB instrument with a Quorum transfer stage, and the Leica THUNDER Imager EM cryo CLEM microscope. This technology will allow the candidate to develop their skills to target events that happen deep in the cell so we can see more of the molecular mechanisms that drive the formation, maintenance and disruption of PML bodies and other nuclear condensates. Main Duties and Responsibilities Collaborate with colleagues and participate in team/group meetings/seminars/workshops with our CRUK SI colleagues, the MRC University of Glasgow Centre for Virus Research (CVR), and the wider community.

By decoupling content from its presentation layer, Contentful enables more than 4,200 organizations-including 30% of the Fortune 500-to create, manage, and deliver seamless digital experiences across any channel, from mobile apps and websites to voice assistants and digital signage. Contentful provides native AI and real-time personalization to help brand, marketing, and engineering teams collaborate more effectively and scale their digital footprints without the constraints of traditional, monolithic systems. The Role The Director of Product Marketing is the primary strategist for our market positioning and the arbiter of our competitive standards. Reporting to the VP of Product Marketing, you serve as the bridge between high-level brand vision and the granular reality of the product roadmap. You don't just observe the market; you identify strategic gaps to out-position the competition and codify the technical logic that establishes our platform as the benchmark for the modern DXP and CMS categories. You own the translation layer between Product Development and the market, possessing the technical depth and knowledge of buyer personas to feel equally comfortable building architectural frameworks for a CTO or crafting a strategic vision to justify enterprise value to a CMO. By synthesizing market intelligence into actionable requirements, you actively shape the product roadmap and turn complex technical milestones into a visionary narrative for the world's most sophisticated enterprises. As a player/coach for a distributed US/EMEA team, you are as comfortable brainstorming five-year category shifts with the VP of Product Marketing as you are line-editing a practitioner-level technical blog. You elevate your team's technical acumen by teaching them how to find the 'human story' inside a technical feature. What to expect? Positioning & Messaging: Own the master product messaging and positioning frameworks for the products that define our business. You ensure that our platform is not viewed as a mere utility, but as a critical strategic investment for digital transformation. Prod Dev Collaboration: Act as the primary liaison to the Product Management organization. You will work in tight coordination with product leaders to ensure the roadmap is influenced by market needs and that technical milestones are translated into high-impact value propositions. Cross-functional Collaboration: Serve as the narrative connective tissue between Product, Sales, Analyst Relations, and Corporate Marketing teams. You will collaborate with the Director of Go-To-Market Product Marketing to ensure the core messaging is successfully integrated into global campaigns, enablement, and sales motions. Creation of Product Marketing Artifacts: Personally, and with the team, develop and maintain the foundational assets that represent our business, including core corporate decks and platform-level narratives. You ensure that the company's most visible materials are accurate and compelling. Team Leadership: Direct a high-performing Core PMM team across multiple time zones, including actively investing in your team's growth, delivering thoughtful feedback and elevating their ability to operate with both technical depth and executive-level clarity. This position is remote, but expected to travel to the Berlin office at least once per quarter. What you need to be successful? At least 8 - 10 years of experience in Product Marketing or a related strategic function within B2B SaaS, and 3-5 years of experience leading a team. Direct experience in CMS, DXP, or Personalization technology is highly preferred. Exceptional Communication: You are a gifted writer and an accomplished public speaker. You possess the presence to influence C-level stakeholders and the technical depth to earn the respect of product architects. Instructional Management Style: You have a proven track record of managing global teams (US and EMEA) and a passion for mentoring. You enjoy the process of reviewing work and coaching your team to achieve a higher standard of output. Technical Acumen: You possess hands-on fluency in modern software architecture. You can read API documentation and credibly challenge product and engineering partners while shaping external narratives around headless configurations and composable digital ecosystems. You can explain the "how" just as well as the "why." Judgment and Precision: You have a refined sense of timing and tone, knowing exactly how to adjust a message based on market shifts or the specific needs of an analyst or enterprise buyer. What's in it for you? Join an ambitious tech company reshaping the way people build digital experiences Full-time employees receive Stock Options for the opportunity to share in the success of our company Fertility and family building benefits, including a lifetime reimbursable wallet to support your growing family.
