KA/188032/3- Application Scientist - Language Speakers Needed! - Genetics/Molecular - Cambridge, UK
A new position is available with a diagnostics company specialising in a niche sector of the industry who are searching for an Application Scientist with experience in Next Generation Sequencing. Given the international nature of this company and the desire to support customers in their native language, they are searching for those with language skills in Danish, Swedish, Italian, French, German or Spanish to join them at their site based in Cambridge, UK.
Currently, this position is being offered as a 1 year fixed term contract, however given the expansion plans of the company it's highly likely to extend beyond this, giving those of you without any industry experience the opportunity to step into one of the fastest growing diagnostics companies in Europe.
As an Application Scientist, you will play a key role in supporting the field service engineers and sales professionals. You will be tasked with troubleshooting, providing scientific advice and managing relationships with customers across the UK, whilst also benefiting from working for a company with an international presence and a strong name to have on your CV.
Key Requirements for this Application Scientist position include:
- Fluency in Dutch, Swedish, French, German, Italian or Spanish (with Dutch/Swedish a strong preference)
- A PhD/Masters/BSc within molecular biology or a related discipline
- Hands on experience working within a laboratory and previous experience with NGS is highly beneficial
- Strong analytical and problem solving skills
- Candidates must be based close to Cambridge, UK or have the ability to relocate to the region
Preference will go to candidates who are available to begin a new contract role at short notice.
For more information, please send a recent copy of your CV in English and on MS word to k.adley@nonstop-devices.com or call Kate Adley on +44 (0) 207 940 2105. Successful candidates will be contacted within 24 hours of application.
