Are you passionate for sustainability and would you like to work for a front-runner in the field of sustainability and make the difference? For the Innovation Center Process Technology group we are looking for a hands-on Process Specialist, who can support our team in developing new innovative processes for food, biochemical and/or algae business, or improve existing processes. The Process Technology group is one of the core technologies of Corbion’s Innovation Center, at our location in Gorinchem.

On this site, the largest lactic acid derivative production facility is also found, serving our core business units.

Corbion Innovation Center’s Process Technology group consists of a team of around 20 scientists and technicians. We create value by providing innovative solutions for process design, development and optimization activities and taking responsibility for scale-up and process demonstration, from bench-top to industrial scale, including technology transfer and implementation support.


The role


As a Process Specialist (Downstream Processing), you will engage in a broad range of activities aimed at developing, optimizing and implementing downstream processes (post fermentation) for our food, biochemical and algae business by delivering from lab through pilot/demo to implementation in our plants. You will build insight, know-how and skills on different downstream processing technologies for both food and non-food products. These can include different separation processes (such as biomass separation, S/L separation, ion exchange, adsorption, G/L separation, extraction, electrodialysis) and/or also downstream processes around concentration, preservation and powder production (e.g. evaporation, UHT, spray drying, granulation etc.).


Your role is that of "collaborative and bridging leader" to transfer processes from R&D to plants. You combine a solid scientific background with a hands-on and can-do mentality and a strong drive to deliver. As Process Specialist in Process Technology you will work in innovative, multi-disciplinary project teams.

  • Translating the technology challenges of commercial plants to lab-scale trials at R&D
  • Supporting or leading troubleshooting in case of problems in our plant facilities and translating problems back to lab-scale trials and knowledge base.
  • Analyzing results generated by Technicians, and signal IP opportunities
  • Ensuring documentation and reporting of procedures and results according to the Corbion standards.
  • Building, maintaining and exploiting DSP development and implementation skills
  • Supporting intellectual property, regulatory affairs, marketing and sales departments with relevant expertise
