As a person, you work independently, can handle a complex workday, and enjoy a close collaboration with your team and department. You are responsible, flexible, and have the courage and drive to engage in new assignments and stick to them until the job is finished.

It is important that you are a good communicator, since you are in daily contact with other scientists, production employees, project managers, analytical laboratories, and others, both in Denmark and the US.
