We are looking for a summer intern for the Quality Control Laboratory at The Absolut Company in Åhus. We offer full-time summer internships, two shifts Monday to Friday, from the beginning of June to the end of August. You need to be available for 8-10 consecutive weeks. The QC laboratory is accredited according to ISO 17025, and you will work in a team responsible for continuously supporting production by performing chemical and sensory analyses of ingredients and products. In the team, we work together to deliver accurate and high-quality analysis results on time.

Your main responsibilities include:

• Performing chemical and sensory analyses, conducting tests, and evaluating and reporting results in the laboratory data system.
• Maintenance and control of analytical instruments, as well as evaluation and reporting of control results.
• Conducting product reviews of finished products in their entirety and their components.
• Collaboration with other departments involved in quality assurance, product development, and production. For us, quality is an important part, and therefore it is essential to have a quality mindset in everything you do.

ABOUT YOU

We are looking for someone who has:

• Experience with analytical instruments and equipment in a laboratory environment is a plus.
• Good computer skills are a prerequisite for the position, as well as the ability to express yourself well in Swedish, both verbally and in writing.

As a person, you are meticulous, responsible, analytical, and good at creating structure and working systematically. Since many tasks involve independent work, it is important that you are self-driven in your role and can take your own initiatives. The tasks also require that you have good collaboration skills, can easily absorb and share information, instructions, and expertise. You need to be flexible and prepared to handle new conditions and circumstances in your daily work.
