The Biosensors Group at IMBB-FORTH (biosensorslab-forth.gr), headed by Prof. E. Gizeli, during the last five years has produced innovative research in the areas of point-ofcare diagnostics and DNA analysis with emphasis in healthcare and agro/food safety. This research, which has received three innovation awards in national and international competitions, is now under the process of becoming commercial through the creation of a start-up company. Initial funding secured for this purpose comes from Patras Science Park through the “Proof-of-Concept” award.

The company is currently discussing with future end-users including Greek and multinational companies, with interest in pathogen analysis. The aim is to bring the first product to the market in the first quarter of 2020.

The team, currently consisting of a group of 2 researchers, 1 scientific consultant/advisor and 1 IT manager, is seeking to employ an equally motivated member with expertise on marketing. The new person will be hired initially for 3 months, on a part or full time basis, with the prospect for a long-term commitment. He/she should be a holder of an MBA, have excellent knowledge of written/spoken English, be able to demonstrate previous experience in a start-up or relevant company and, ideally, be willing to work in/commute to Heraklion, Crete.

Interested applicants should send their CV and a letter of interest to Dr G. Papadakis (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.).
