We are Malvern Panalytical. We’re big on small.
We are here to unleash the power of very small things to make big things happen. Our technologies enable our customers to create a better world. Improving everything from the energies that power us and the materials we build with, to the medicines that cure us and the foods we enjoy. We partner with many of the world’s biggest companies, universities and research organizations. They value us not only for the power of our solutions, but also for the depth of our expertise, collaboration and integrity. We are a globally diverse mix of visionary thinkers, creative problem-solvers, and detail-loving geeks, united by knowing that when you can make the invisible visible, you make the impossible possible.
We are looking for the next generation of Scientists and Engineers to join us for a summer internship. The placement is for undergraduates who will work within our Digital Strategy Team based in Bristol.
Our data science team is part of our Research and Development department, which consists of over two hundred Scientists and Engineers covering all STEM disciplines. Our mission is to maximise the impact, and utility and quality of analytical instrumentation in natural, physical and material sciences by the incorporation of machine intelligence. The work sits at the interface of the sciences, computing and data science.
You’ll be based at our Bristol Digital Hub in the heart of Bristol, Redcliffe – (a 5-minute walk from Temple Meads station) with an inclusive, friendly and social team.
Is this placement for me?
These placements will be suitable for anyone studying any STEM discipline (any natural or physical science, maths, computing) with strong interests across the sciences. You should have some programming experience and a passion for creative problem solving. You should enjoy working across the boundaries of disciplines and enjoy learning beyond your own discipline.
Some of the things you’ll be doing:
You will be able to apply your undergraduate learning that you have gained so far in new and innovative ways. You will gain experience in a business environment and become part of our ambitious, global organisation where we have a friendly and inclusive culture.
We encourage one another’s dreams and goals and together we celebrate success. During the placement you will support the development team with the amazing work that they do, in addition to this you will also have the opportunity to be responsible for individual project to be completed whilst you are with us.
To give you an idea of what you may get involved with, take a look at this year’s projects and placements available:
Particle Size Characterization
Development of Machine Learning assisted algorithms for converting light scattering data into particle size distributions.
Development of Machine Learning based methods of determining material identification from spectroscopy data.
You will be considered for all the placement roles above but if you have a strong interest in any of the projects or particular areas, please let us know through the application and interview process.
This is a full-time position with a working pattern of 37.5 hours, Monday to Friday. Although we also have options to flex this.
- Start and end of the placement can be flexible, but where possible we would like all interns to be available to start on 12th June, ending on 1st September 2023
- You will receive lots of benefits from being part of our team but of course you will need some time away, so we provide you with 25 days paid holiday per annum + UK bank holidays
- You will be paid an equivalent to an annual salary of £18,525 pro-rata
As part of your role, we may also ask the summer intern students to support STEM activities.
You must be able to provide relevant documentation to demonstrate your right to work in the UK and/or hold the appropriate Work / Student Visa to allow work placements. We are unable to sponsor Visa applications for the year in industry roles.
We are proud to be globally diverse and inclusive. We’re all different – though together, we share common values that guide us every day.
