Laboratory technician with focus on chemical analysis
The Man Technology Environment Research Centre (MTM) at Örebro University focuses on applied research on chemical compounds of different origin in the environment and their relations to sustainable development.

We are now in the process of establishing the Environmental Forensic (EnForce) Laboratory. It is a new research effort funded by the Knowledge Foundation research profile program in collaboration with ten partners from trade and industry and the Swedish Toxicology Sciences Research Center (Swetox). The main goal of the EnForce Laboratory is to track and identify environmental pollutants with a better understanding of their effects. The objectives are to develop and apply advanced analytical methods including metabolomics, bioassay technologies and speciation for effect-directed analysis and hazard assessment of the full spectrum of toxicologically relevant anthropogenic chemicals, mixtures, transformation products and metals in the bio- and technospheres.

We are seeking a chemist with interest in chemical analysis and mass spectrometry for a fixed term position as laboratory technician.

Duties and responsibilities
The laboratory technician will work closely together with researchers and support research projects with analysis of different human and environmental sample matrices including sample preparation and instrumental analysis. Focus is on environmental pollutants using liquid- and gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. The laboratory technician will be responsible for sample registration, chemical purchases and inventory. Duties also include contacts with suppliers and instrument manufacturers, and to maintain the research laboratory systems.

Qualifications
The person we are looking for has previous experience and is interested in laboratory work and analytical instruments. The successful candidate has at least a Bachelor degree in Science with focus on chemistry or equivalent and experience in analytical laboratory work including handling of analytical instruments. Experience in routine chemical analysis, quality assurance, or mass spectrometry is a merit. The successful candidate should be well organized and analytically oriented, be flexible and open to change and have the ability to independently work with chemical analysis. Good communication skills in both Swedish and English is required.. General assessment criteria include good interpersonal skills and an ability to cooperate as well as the ability and suitability otherwise required to perform the duties well.

Equality
Our ambition is to create a place of work that is characterised by gender equality and diversity.

Information
The position is a fixed term position for six months with possibilities of extension. Starting date is 2017-06-01 or as soon as possible. The salary depends on the successful candidate's qualifications and experience.
