At Amaris, we strive to provide our candidates with the best possible recruitment experience. We like to get to know our candidates, challenge them, and be able to give them proper feedback as quickly as possible. Here's what our recruitment process looks like:

Brief Call : Our process typically begins with a brief virtual/phone conversation to get to know you! The objective? Learn about you, understand your motivations, and make sure we have the right job for you!

Interviews (the average number of interviews is 3 - the number may vary depending on the level of seniority required for the position). During the interviews, you will meet people from our team: your line manager of course, but also other people related to your future role. We will talk in depth about you, your experience, and skills, but also about the position and what will be expected of you. Of course, you will also get to know Amaris: our culture, our roots, our teams, and your career opportunities!

Case study : Depending on the position, we may ask you to take a test. This could be a role play, a technical assessment, a problem-solving scenario, etc.

As you know, every person is different and so is every role in a company. That is why we have to adapt accordingly, and the process may differ slightly at times. However, please know that we always put ourselves in the candidate's shoes to ensure they have the best possible experience.

We look forward to meeting you!

  • Develop and validate analytical methods tailored to project needs, ensuring accuracy and reproducibility.
  • Provide expert advice on chemical compatibility, contamination, degradation mechanisms, and material performance.
  • Collaborate closely with multidisciplinary teams, regulatory experts, toxicologists, and external partners to translate chemical insights into practical solutions.
  • Document findings in clear, concise reports and present results to stakeholders.
  • Stay up to date with chemical regulations (e.g., REACH, RoHS, FDA) and support compliance efforts, including audits and certifications.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of lab practices, safety standards, and knowledge sharing within the team.

What We Are Looking For

  • Master's or PhD in Analytical Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, or a closely related field.
  • Proven experience with analytical techniques including LC-MS, GC-MS, FTIR, UV-Vis, DSC, TGA, and spectroscopy.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to interpret complex datasets.
  • Familiarity with polymers, coatings, adhesives, and their chemical behavior is a strong advantage.
  • Experience in method development, validation, and documentation according to industry standards.
  • Knowledge of chemical safety, risk assessment, and relevant regulations (REACH, RoHS).
  • Excellent communication skills in English; Dutch is a plus.

What We Offer

  • Work on impactful and innovative projects within the medical and personal health sectors.
  • Join an international consultancy environment focused on growth, digital transformation, and continuous development.
  • Collaborate with leading global companies and diverse multidisciplinary teams.
  • Benefit from a hybrid working model combining office and remote work.
  • Be part of a diverse and inclusive international network supported by global hubs and centers of excellence.
  • Enjoy additional perks such as performance bonuses and mobility options.
