The organisation

In order to build on their future Technology Roadmap, they currently seek an experienced, networked and future-focused Innovation & Business Development Manager.

The position

In this newly created role, the key focus is to build on the success that the company has already achieved across the metal organic precursor market and to ensure that business growth is maximized in collaboration with both (potential) customers and leading research institutes on MOCVD and semiconductor processing (epitaxy, ALD, PECVD and adjacent technologies). You develop and maintain a strong, world-wide, open innovation network and pro-actively keep track of all relevant applications, growth drivers and trends to engage AkzoNobel into contract and/or collaboration research projects that will set the requirements for the metal organic precursors of the future. in collaboration with the Organometallic Process and Technology teams you initiate the required projects to produce these precursors. Operating within both internal and external spotlights, you lead the way to effectively bring science to business!

Candidate profile

This is a wide-ranging role for an outside-in business developer, with fundamental understanding of the epitaxy process and the use of characterization tools to evaluate semiconductor device structures. You have a thorough understanding of semiconductor applications, including LEDs, Photovoltaic Devices, Laser Diodes, Power Devices and CMOS. Proven record of both applied innovation and business development in at least one of the applications. You are a highly motivated self-starter with an entrepreneurial approach. You have precise attention to details and a numerate, analytical and problem-solving mentality. You possess good influencing skills, you are results-oriented and you are capable of figuring out the exact customers’ future requirements and solutions. You connect scientists with innovators, sales, technicians and customers. As such, you have at least a MSc degree in Materials Science, Chemistry, Physics or Electronics. A Phd will help, just as experience and knowledge of Asian-markets will.
