Senior bioanalyst sought for Blood Samples and Biochemistry, Multi 4, AUH

Do you want to help set the direction? Do you want leadership – and to lead a team of professionals who know their craft and are passionate about it? We are seeking a senior bioanalyst to Multi 4 in Blood Tests and Biochemistry at Aarhus University Hospital with commencement on 1 December 2026 or by agreement.

Here you get a leadership position close to both staff, operations and professional development. You will become the leader of a highly specialized section where strong professionalism, research and development are part of everyday life – and where your task is to create the framework for people and professionalism to succeed together.

As a senior bioanalyst in Multi 4 you will also be part of the management in a large laboratory department. Here we expect our leaders to take responsibility for their own area and contribute to the whole – also when solutions must be found across disciplines and organizational boundaries.

We are therefore looking for you who both desire close management and to actively contribute to the development of our tasks, collaboration and organization.
