Our plant breeding focuses on cereals, oil crops, and forage crops and forms the first link in the chain from field to fork. By developing varieties adapted to the all parts of Sweden, we assist farmers in meeting the challenges posed by climate change and new consumer demands. We ensure that our customers have access to the best possible varieties, either from our own breeding programs or through in-licensing.

What you will do
As Plant Breeder/Population Improvement you will develop prediction models for relevant traits, based mainly on genomic data, for direct use in our various crop breeding programs. Part of your work will be carried out as specific projects, either internal or in cooperation with external research groups or companies. You will also, together with our biotechnology laboratory, take active part in building up a top-class infrastructure for genetic marker analysis and data processing.
You will be a part of the plant breeding department's population improvement group, a newly formed group of plant breeders/geneticists and breeding assistants. The group works together with our two variety development groups to ensure that Lantmännen has a market-leading variety portfolio.

What you need to succeed and thrive
You have:
• A doctoral degree in genetics, bioinformatics, plant breeding or similar
• Experience from statistical modelling and analysis of large data sets
• Excellent ability in using standard software/databases, e.g. Agrobase, SAS/JMP, R, Python, &c.
• Knowledge of the goals and methods of plant breeding
• Proficient language skills in English and Swedish (or other Scandinavian language)

You are
• Committed, innovative, and open to new ideas
• A team player with ability to work independently when needed

• An excellent communicator
You share our values - Openness, Holistic view, Drive - and our promise of taking responsibility from Field to Fork.
