Qualifications
For most positions we will consider candidates regardless of degree subject, as long as you achieve or are expected to achieve at least a 2:1 in the UK, or an equivalent.
However, each opportunity is subject to its own academic requirements which you must meet if you are to be considered. It is therefore imperative that you check your suitability against the specific vacancy you are interested in
For example: opportunities in Engineering may require you to have an engineering background, preferably in chemical or process engineering; and for some opportunities in our research and Development function you will need a chemistry or polymer science degree plus a relevant PhD.
