We are looking for a laboratory assistant in chemistry for a fixed-term position at the School of Science and Technology / Unit for Natural Science.

The laboratory assistant will mainly work in a research project on human exposure for per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances through fish consumption. The work consists of calculation and documentation of already existing data, and assisting in PFAS analysis using solid-phase extraction (SPE) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The work is performed in an international research environment and includes handling and maintaining analytical instruments and supporting other laboratory activities.

The ability to work both independently and in groups, as well as work quality-consciously and be responsible, is a requirement. Great value is on the candidates expressed ambition to learn and take responsibility for the work.

Great importance will be attached to your personal qualities; the ability to work independently and engage with other people in a way that instils confidence; and a good track-record when it comes to cooperation.

We expect you to be flexible and open to change and that you take a quality-driven and responsible approach to your duties.
