Once established in the role you will have a strong basic understanding of the physiology of seed, germination, growth young seedlings, the processing and technical applications of sugar beet.
Tasks
• Develop best practice for sugar beet processing based on the DLF germplasm.
• Be responsible for planning of budget on pre-commercial development projects.

Your profile
We are looking for a highly motivated person with PhD preferably in Plant biology or chemistry scientific discipline like seed and plant physiology. Passion for technical and scientific innovation and problem solving is essential for success in this position.
As a person you are structured, self-propelled and like to collaborate with different stakeholders. We operate in a global market so good team working skills, with other scientist as well as with manufacturing, engineering and commercial colleagues, are crucial. You also need to feel comfortable speaking in front of a group and like giving guidance to others, since providing on-site and distance technical problem solving support to DLF beet sites, is part of the job.
You have capacity to innovate in a focused and product-oriented manner and an interest in and awareness of the market context of a commercial seed business. You are also able to handle logistical challenges, sometimes under time pressure. The position requires some travelling, so you need to be willing to travel internationally and nationally. Fluency in both English and Swedish (both spoken and written) is an advantage.
