Scientific Buyer
Got a science degree or PhD and want to put it to work in a business setting? This is the role to fast-track your career with one of Glasgow’s most exciting high-growth businesses.
We’re looking for three stand-out people to join our intrapreneurial team.
Where you come in
Most medical advances are developed by innovative biotech companies. Their scientists use a lot of lab consumables, equipment and services in their life-saving missions. MyAmici is the world leader in laboratory procurement, helping biotech companies with our cloud-based software and amazing service.
Speaking of amazing, that’s where you come in. You don’t need any substantive business experience. What we’re looking for is curiosity and a desire to learn. You’ll have drive and ambition, you’ll be an outgoing people person, and you’ll be skilled at communicating and influencing. Most of all, you’ll be positive, flexible and ready for a challenge.
How the role works
Scientists at the cutting edge of biotech contact us every day for help sourcing important research products.
You consult with the customer, making sure you have all the information needed to get the best outcome for them.
You scan the market for solutions, weighing up technical specifications, price and speed of delivery.
You speak to suppliers about their products, getting to grips with the nuances and negotiating the best prices.
You share the options with the customer and guide them to the best outcome.
All while working in a great team of like-minded people, supported by your manager.
What we’re looking for
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- A problem-solving mindset and resourcefulness under pressure
- A curious, proactive and positive attitude
- A real team player, ready to support your colleagues
- Experience in the biotech industry, or a relevant degree
