European Analytical Application Specialist


Biotage is looking to set up an analytical application and demonstration laboratory at our office in Lund. This role will be responsible for the running of this new laboratory and will need to be a self-starter who is happy to work on projects relatively autonomously. The ideal candidate will be outgoing and keen to interact with potential customers when they visit Lund for demonstrations and also at customer locations around Europe as this role will also require a significant level of travel.
