Highly motivated, passionate organic chemists holding a PhD in organic chemistry with hands-on experience in general organic chemistry, multi-Âstep synthesis, from milligram to multi-Âgram scale.

Fluency in English and strong communication skills to share results (orally and in writing) are essential.
The successful candidates must demonstrate their capabilities in problem solving and in working in an autonomous manner.
Note: Skilled chemists holding only a Master may be considered if they demonstrate the above capabilities.
