For our project office in Amersfoort, we are looking for working students to strengthen the team during the summer period from July to October.

Working students are needed at short notice to support the team during this period.

Do you have a background in life sciences, chemistry, or another lab‑related field? That’s a plus. However, if you are studying something else but have an interest in process‑oriented and precise work, you are also encouraged to apply.

Eurofins Scientific is an international life sciences company providing laboratory testing and advisory services. In the Netherlands, its environmental laboratories offer a broad range of chemical, physical, and biological analyses across environmental matrices.

• Processing data and results in systems
• Supporting the release and preparation of samples for shipment
• Coordinating with colleagues in logistics and the laboratory
• Contributing ideas for process improvements

You will work at the intersection of administration, logistics, and content—an ideal combination if you want to understand how laboratory processes work in practice.

Who are you?

• You are currently a student (HBO/WO or MBO level 4)
• You are available from July till October (at least 2 days per week, but more days is preferred)
• You work accurately and in a structured way
• You are stress‑resistant and can switch between tasks effectively
