Nurse, Biomedical Laboratory Scientist, or other health care professional sought for donor tapping in Roskilde

Due to the growing need for plasma for the manufacture of medicines, the production of plasma in Denmark can no longer meet the demand with the current effort. To secure future supply security in Denmark, Danske Regioner has decided that all regions must expand the capacity for tapping blood plasma. For Region Zealand this means that the current plasma tapping of about 16 tons must be increased to about 40 tons over the coming years. This means that in January 2027 we will open yet another plasma center in Roskilde, so if you would like to be part of starting something new, now is the time to jump in.

A permanent position of 34/37 hours per week is available, to be filled on 1 December 2026 or by agreement.

It is a position where you must be based in Roskilde, however you must be willing to travel to Køge as needed. Some of the training may possibly take place in Køge.

We are a department with 18 employees in Roskilde / Køge. The staff group consists of both bioanalysts, nurses and other health care professionals.

It is expected that interviews will be held on Monday 26 October 2026.

Working hours in Roskilde for the rest of the year will be

Monday: 11-19

Tuesday: 9-17

Wednesday: 7.30-15.30

Thursday: 7-14

Friday: 7-13

Working hours in Køge will be

Monday to Thursday 7.30-15.30/10-18/12.30-20.30
