o
Capable of preparing detailed technical reports with precise summaries

Alternatively, you will have a BSc degree in Chemistry/Polymer Chemistry and be able to demonstrate expert formulation knowledge.
You must be able to show a proven track record of innovation; have excellent hands-on laboratory skills; good communication and interpersonal skills; have a keen eye for detail; and be able to show a good understanding of the different polymer technologiesused within the industrial coatings and repair industry.

If you feel that this is the role you have been seeking, please let me have your CV as soon as possible.
