Series A Deep-Tech Optics & Materials Company We are recruiting for a highly innovative deep-technology company developing advanced optical technologies based on proprietary soft optical materials and fluid-based photonic systems. The company operates at the intersection of optics, materials science, chemistry, fluid-based optical systems and precision engineering, with applications spanning adaptive optics, AR/VR, ophthalmics and next-generation photonic systems. Following successful technology development and the creation of multiple working demonstrators, the business is now entering structured co-development programmes with early strategic customers and is seeking an exceptional CTO to help lead the next phase of technical and commercial growth. This role will appeal to someone who enjoys difficult multidisciplinary problems, has experience translating novel physical technologies into manufacturable systems, and wants to help shape a technically ambitious deep-tech company at a formative stage of growth. The successful candidate will work closely with the CEO, Chief Engineer and leadership team to define technology strategy, guide productisation and scale-up, shape the IP portfolio, and lead customer-facing technical engagement with strategic partners. This is not a role removed from the technology. We are looking for someone equally comfortable discussing wavefront aberrations, material stability, optical architectures and process yield — while also operating credibly with customers, investors and board stakeholders. The Opportunity The company has built a substantial foundation of proprietary IP in optical soft materials and fluidic optical systems, including: • A significant patent estate and invention pipeline, • Proprietary formulations and device architectures, • In-house prototype and testing capability, • Early-stage pilot manufacturing capability, • Active customer co-development programmes The business strategy focuses on high-value IP, enabling technologies and platform architectures which can be integrated into customer products through licensing and strategic B2B partnerships. Applications include: • Adaptive and tunable optics, • AR/VR systems, • Ophthalmic and presbyopia correction, • Precision instrumentation, • Emerging photonic technologies The Role The CTO will lead the company’s transition from advanced laboratory demonstrators through to robust, manufacturable systems suitable for customer integration and scaled deployment. Key responsibilities include: Technology Strategy & Platform Development • Define and maintain a coherent 6–24 month technology roadmap aligned with customer programmes and long-term platform strategy, • Determine where to deepen proprietary capability versus integrate external or partner technologies, • Establish technical milestones and stage gates linked to funding, hiring and customer commitments, • Guide the progression from TRL 4–5 demonstrators to TRL 7–8 manufacturable systems R&D Leadership & Productisation • Lead and grow a multidisciplinary technical team spanning optics, materials, chemistry, coatings, modelling and characterisation, • Drive technologies from experimental prototypes to reliable and manufacturable products, • Establish rigorous but pragmatic development practices around experimentation, data and technical decision-making, • Oversee validation and reliability testing across optical performance and environmental robustness IP & Competitive Positioning • Shape and evolve the company’s IP strategy alongside executive leadership and external counsel, • Drive invention capture and patent prioritisation, • Monitor competitive and patent landscapes across optical materials, adaptive optics and adjacent technologies, • Ensure customer collaborations strengthen the company’s core IP position Customer-Facing Technical Leadership • Act as senior technical counterpart for strategic co-development partners, • Translate integration and performance requirements into clear technical architectures and specifications, • Present technical trade-offs, risks and mitigation plans clearly and credibly, • Support the structuring of co-development programmes and technical workstreams Manufacturing & External Partnerships • Develop the path from prototype manufacturing to scalable production, • Select and manage key external technical and manufacturing partners, • Define technical interfaces and quality expectations across the supply chain, • Help shape long-term manufacturing strategy as the business scales Candidate Profile We are looking for an experienced technical leader with deep scientific credibility and strong commercial judgement. You are likely to have: • A PhD or equivalent depth of expertise in optics, optical engineering, physics, materials science, chemistry or a related field, • 10+ years in advanced R&D or product development environments, • Leadership experience as a CTO, VP Engineering, VP Research, Head of R&D or equivalent, • A track record of taking novel physical technologies from concept through prototype into customer deployment or commercialisation, • Strong IP awareness, ideally including named inventorship on patents, • Experience working directly with strategic customers or co-development partners Particular interest will be given to experience in: • Soft optical materials, • Adaptive or tunable optics, • Optofluidic or microfluidic systems with optical functionality, • Optical polymers, LC systems, gels or elastomers, • Precision optical devices, • AR/VR optics, • Ophthalmic technologies, • Advanced photonic systems Operating Style This role requires someone who is: • Comfortable operating in an early-stage deep-tech environment, • Hands-on when required, but capable of strategic leadership, • Experimentally rigorous and data-driven, • Pragmatic under uncertainty, • Low ego, collaborative and intellectually curious, • Motivated by building enduring technology platforms rather than short-term optimisation The Environment This is a company where science and engineering genuinely drive the business. The underlying technology is established. The IP position is substantial. Customer engagement is already underway. The challenge now is to convert highly differentiated technical capability into scalable products, manufacturable platforms and long-term commercial advantage. For the right individual, this represents an opportunity to shape both the technical direction and future trajectory of a genuinely ambitious deep-tech company while remaining close to the science and engineering itself.

Based in Oxford an exciting opportunity has arisen to join a small, world-leading consultancy specialising in the supply and use of platinum-group metals (PGM). PGM have excellent catalytic properties, are highly chemical, corrosion and heat resistant. Being hugely valuable they are also almost entirely recycled. These metals are required in almost every aspect of our lives, from helping us to breath more easily as PGM remove toxins from car exhausts; are critical for storing data in vast AI data centers; used on turbine blades on wind farms; saving lives through cancer drugs, heart pacemakers and implants; to silicones, critical chemicals for food production and manufacturing; to tomorrow’s net zero green hydrogen energy to help us to meet our climate change goals. Job description Preferably from chemistry/material science/chemical engineering background with further education and some business experience, the candidate will ideally be based in Oxford working with world leaders in their field. If you are interested and passionate about using your scientific background to become an analyst working with our expanding PGM team to produce world leading industry and market intelligence then please apply. SFA work for some of the largest blue-chip companies worldwide, who rely on expert analysis on applications for PGM, be it new plants requiring PGM to catalyse reactions to create essential products or PGM required in the application itself. The role will consider the circular economy of metal used in all applications. Understanding the substitutability and critical applications of the metal will be key, as will regional developments and changing legislation affecting the use of these metals. Often the work will require updating and building Excel-based models to monitor and forecast use of PGM in health, chemical, industrial and high-tech applications. In addition, activities will include conducting extensive research, writing concise summaries backed up by detailed analysis, putting together impactful PowerPoint slides and attending and presenting at industry conferences. The projects vary from direct consulting across the industry value chain including mining, recycling, chemical, industrial fabricators, to financial institutions, to regular reporting on the metal markets. More than 90% of SFAs clients reside overseas. Examples of the types of consulting projects undertaken • Country specific evaluation of PGM used in critical industrial applications aiding business development for major chemical companies., • Worldwide recycling and reuse of PGM for fabricator companies., • Projecting the use of hydrogen and the critical role of PGM. Skills required • Bachelor’s Degree at grade 2:1 or above in chemistry/materials science/chemical engineering, • MSc or PhD in a related discipline an advantage, • Curiosity, attention to detail and accuracy are essential, • Willingness to travel, present your findings and engage with industry, • The candidate should have excellent MS Office skills, particularly Excel, • Excellent writing skills are essential, • The ability to graphically represent analysis is key, • On many occasions, the ability to work under pressure and meet client deadlines, • The ability to work well with others and to maintain databases and put together reports independently, • Fluent in English and permission to work in the UK essential. SFA offers a competitive salary, 25 days paid leave, pension contributions and the opportunity to join a world leading team based at the rapidly expanding Oxford Science Park, a major UK hub for science, technology and innovation.
