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.

View this career for different education levels: A Sports Reporter in the UK is at the heart of bringing the excitement and drama of sport to the public. This role involves attending sporting events, conducting interviews with athletes, coaches, and other key figures, and then crafting compelling stories for various media platforms. You could be reporting live from a Premier League football match, interviewing a rising star at Wimbledon, or providing in-depth analysis of a Six Nations rugby game. The work isn't just about covering the event itself; it often involves research, fact checking, and understanding the narratives behind the scores. You might work for local newspapers, national broadsheets, specialist sports magazines, radio stations, television channels, or increasingly, for online only publications and digital content providers. Key responsibilities include writing news articles, features, match reports, and opinion pieces; recording audio or video reports; producing content for social media; and often working to tight deadlines. A strong understanding of various sports, excellent writing and communication skills, a keen eye for detail, and the ability to build a network of contacts are crucial. The job often requires working irregular hours, including evenings, weekends, and bank holidays, to cover live events. While exhilarating, it demands dedication and a genuine passion for sport and storytelling. For entry level sports reporters in the UK, typical starting salaries can range from 18,000 to 24,000 pounds per year. This can vary significantly based on the employer (local newspaper vs. national broadcaster) and location. Experienced Salary Range With several years of experience, sports reporters can expect to earn between 28,000 and 45,000 pounds. Senior roles, especially at major national broadcasters or publications, can command salaries upwards of 50,000 pounds, potentially reaching 70,000 pounds or more for highly prominent figures. Job Market Overview The sports journalism market in the UK is competitive, with a significant number of aspiring journalists. While precise annual job opening figures are hard to pinpoint, the industry consistently seeks talented individuals across print, online, radio, and television platforms. Online media and digital content creation continue to be growth areas. Careers in this path Specialise in reporting on football, including match analysis, player interviews, transfer news, and league updates for websites, newspapers, or broadcasters. This offers a deep dive into the UK's most popular sport. Focus on the rapidly growing world of competitive video gaming. This involves commentating on live esports events (casting) or reporting on team news, player profiles, and tournament results for online platforms. Great for someone with an interest in gaming. Work directly for a professional sports club (e.g., football, rugby, cricket) managing their media relations. This includes writing press releases, creating website content, managing social media, and coordinating interviews for players and management. Build Your Foundation Academic Qualifications Gain relevant academic qualifications that provide a strong theoretical understanding and practical skills in journalism or a related field. Consider a Bachelor's degree in Journalism, Sports Journalism, Media Studies or English. These courses often cover news reporting, feature writing, broadcast journalism, media law, and ethics. Look for programmes that offer practical experience, such as student newspapers, radio stations, or TV studios. Some universities may also offer postgraduate qualifications like an MA in Sports Journalism, which can be beneficial if you have a non journalism undergraduate degree. Develop Core Skills Cultivate essential skills needed for a career in sports reporting, focusing on communication and research. Excellent writing skills are paramount - learn to write clearly, concisely, and engagingly for different audiences and platforms. Develop strong verbal communication for interviews and presenting. Research skills are crucial for gathering accurate information and uncovering compelling stories. Additionally, hone your critical thinking, interviewing techniques, and the ability to work under tight deadlines. A deep understanding of various sports is also incredibly helpful. Begin creating a body of work to showcase your abilities and passion for sports journalism. Write for your university newspaper, student sports blogs, or local amateur sports clubs. Offer to report on local matches or events. Start your own sports blog or podcast to review games, interview local athletes, or discuss sports news. Any piece of published or produced work, regardless of how small, adds to your portfolio and demonstrates initiative and a practical understanding of the field. Gain Practical Experience Internships and Work Placements Secure internships or work placements with established media organisations to gain real world experience. Look for opportunities with national newspapers, sports magazines, local radio stations, TV broadcasters, or online sports news outlets. These placements are invaluable for understanding the industry, making contacts, and applying your academic knowledge in a professional setting. You'll often be involved in researching stories, assisting reporters, transcribing interviews, and perhaps even getting your first by line or broadcast credit. Network Within the Industry Connect with professionals in sports journalism to learn from their experiences and identify opportunities. Attend industry events, sports media conferences, and even local sports press conferences if possible. Use LinkedIn to connect with sports reporters, editors, and producers. Don't be afraid to reach out respectfully for informational interviews or advice. Networking can open doors to mentorships, job opportunities, and a better understanding of the different career paths within sports journalism. Building a strong professional network is key in this competitive field. Develop skills across various media types beyond traditional print, including digital and broadcast. Modern sports reporting is highly multimedia. Learn how to record and edit audio for podcasts, shoot and edit video for online content, and manage social media channels for reporting and engagement. Familiarise yourself with content management systems (CMS) for websites. Being proficient across different platforms makes you a more versatile and attractive candidate to employers who need staff capable of producing content for a range of outlets. Launch Your Career Apply for Junior Roles Actively seek out entry level positions such as junior reporter, production assistant, or content creator. Many sports reporters start their careers in local media, covering community sports, or in roles that support senior journalists. Look for openings on industry job boards, company websites, and through your network. Tailor your applications carefully, highlighting your portfolio, practical experience, and passion for sports. Be prepared for a competitive application process and to potentially start in a support role to gain further experience. Specialise and Develop Expertise Consider focusing on a particular sport or area to become an expert and carve out a niche. While it's good to be versatile, developing deep knowledge in a specific sport (e.g., football, rugby, F1, esports) or a particular aspect of sports (e.g., analytics, sports business, women's sports) can make you a more valuable asset. This specialisation can lead to opportunities for more in depth reporting, punditry, or exclusive content creation, helping you stand out in a crowded market. Continuous Learning and Adaptability Stay updated with industry trends, technological advancements, and evolving journalistic practices. The media landscape is constantly changing. Keep learning new software, digital tools, and storytelling techniques. Stay informed about changes in media law and ethics. Be adaptable to new platforms and ways of consuming sports content.
