An exciting new career opportunity for an Applications Engineer or Scientist / Physicist with a background in optics and/or photonics has been created at a leading Bedfordshire based supplier of hi-technology laboratory systems.


The Photonics Applications Engineer is a largely field-based role covering the UK and Ireland, as such the Applications Engineer / Scientist can be home-based pretty much anywhere in the UK (dep on exp) but you will need to be in the Cranfield Science Park office (Bedfordshire M1/J13) around one day per week and be happy traveling to customers 2/3 days a week.

Working alongside a highly respected industry specialist from whom you can learn and develop your skill/knowledgebase even further, you will use your background in Photonics/Optics/Laser physics technologies to act as the key technical sales link between customers and the international manufacturers of the instruments.
