A Pivotal Opportunity for a Distinguished Ph.D. Scientist in Analytical Chemistry
Step into a leadership role at the nexus of advanced chemical analysis and national public safety. This call for a Senior Technical Expert is a premier opportunity for a highly accomplished Ph.D. scientist to lead a critical project managed by the world-renowned H.E.J. Research Institute of Chemistry (ICCBS). The position is central to the establishment and upgradation of the Central Pesticide Quality Control Laboratory (CPQL) and the Federal Pesticide Testing & Reference Laboratory (FPTRL), a project of immense national importance located at the Department of Plant Protection.
This role requires a true master of modern analytical instrumentation. The ideal candidate will not just be familiar with but will have extensive hands-on expertise in the core technologies of chromatography and mass spectrometry. You will be expected to expertly operate, troubleshoot, and develop methods for GC-MS (Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry), LC-MS (Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry), and HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography). Your mission will be to apply this expertise to some of the most pressing challenges in food safety and environmental monitoring, including the trace analysis of pesticide residues, mycotoxins like aflatoxin, and toxic heavy metals in various matrices.
As a Senior Technical Expert, you will be instrumental in setting up laboratory protocols, ensuring Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC), and potentially training junior staff. Your work will directly contribute to safeguarding Pakistan’s agricultural sector and protecting public health by ensuring that food supplies are free from harmful chemical contaminants. This is a hands-on, leadership-oriented role for a scientist who is passionate about applying their deep knowledge of analytical and organic chemistry to solve real-world problems. If you have the required Ph.D. qualifications and a proven track record in a high-tech analytical laboratory, this is your chance to lead a vital national project and make a lasting contribution to science and society.
