Available opportunities

Opportunities to join the Society’s network of Ambassadors are now open

Biochemical Society Ambassadors play an essential role in helping the Biochemical Society deliver its mission, acting as the first point of contact for the Society at their institution or organisation and a conduit for the transfer of ideas between local molecular bioscientists and the Society.

We are welcoming applications for a range of roles, including those for students, industry members, and those based outside the UK. If you are interested in playing an active role in promoting the Society and all it does to support your local molecular bioscience community, we would love to hear from you.

The Biochemical Society is committed to promoting a diverse and inclusive community and, as such, we welcome nominations from all. You can find further information on our work to promote Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion here.
