HOW CAN YOU HELP US?

Are you eager to contribute to IT projects and strengthen your business analysis, project management and digital skills within an international and dynamic environment?

Through digital connectivity solutions and client-facing platforms, the programme enables the seamless transmission of testing requests, sample information and analytical results, improving efficiency and data quality for both clients and laboratories.

The Outside Service Management (OSM) Programme supports the digitalisation of field services and sample management activities. It ensures that client requests are integrated into the Eurofins network IT systems, facilitates the management of sampling operations, and enables the digital transmission of field data and sample information to laboratories for analysis.

Potential projects may involve assessing new solutions, analysing current functionalities and migration options, and working with other IT stakeholders to develop prototypes or proofs of concept. Other opportunities could include automating reporting processes, developing an AI-powered copilot for issue investigation, etc.
