Are you a microbiologist looking to take your scientific expertise beyond the bench and into a more varied, customer-facing role?
Proclinical is working with an innovative life sciences technology company that is developing new approaches to microbiological testing and quality control.
As part of their continued growth, they are looking for a Field Application Scientist - Microbiology to support the implementation and application of their technology within customer laboratories and manufacturing environments.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced industrial or QC microbiologist who enjoys hands-on science and problem solving, but wants greater variety, customer interaction and exposure to innovative technology.
The Role
This role sits at the intersection of microbiology, technology and customer applications.
You'll combine hands-on laboratory work with time spent at customer sites, supporting the successful implementation and ongoing use of new microbiological testing technology.
You'll work closely with customers to understand their workflows, help validate methods, provide training and troubleshoot scientific challenges. You'll also work alongside internal scientific and technical teams, sharing insight from the field to help improve future applications.
What You'll Be Doing
Support the implementation of microbiological testing technology within customer laboratories and manufacturing environmentsProvide scientific and technical support throughout customer onboarding and adoptionCarry out and evaluate microbiological testing and method validationWork with techniques including microbial culture, identification, microscopy and sample preparationDevelop and optimise microbiological methods for different sample types and applicationsTroubleshoot scientific and technical issues in both laboratory and customer environmentsTrain microbiologists, laboratory scientists and other users on technology and associated workflowsUnderstand existing customer QC microbiology processes and identify opportunities to improve workflowsCommunicate customer requirements and technical feedback to internal scientific teamsProduce clear technical documentation and communicate findings across scientific and non-scientific stakeholdersBuild strong relationships with customers throughout implementation and ongoing useAbout You
We're looking for someone with a strong foundation in hands-on microbiology who also enjoys working with people.

Why Consider This Opportunity?
This is a chance to take your microbiology experience in a different direction without moving away from the science.
You'll be able to:
Combine hands-on microbiology with customer-facing scientific workWork on different scientific challenges rather than repetitive routine testingGain exposure to innovative microbiological technologiesWork across laboratory and industrial environmentsDevelop experience in applications science, technology implementation and customer trainingWork closely with both customers and internal scientific teamsTravel and gain exposure to different laboratory environmentsHave a visible impact on how new microbiological technology is implemented and developedJoin a growing organisation where you'll have genuine responsibility and autonomyInterested?
If you're an experienced microbiologist who enjoys solving problems and would like to move towards a more technical, varied and customer-facing career, we'd be interested in speaking with you.
