To start with, the position of Scientific Affairs Specialist sits comfortably in Global Food Compliance team at Jacobs Douwe Egberts (JDE) Peet's.

We do, of course, take into consideration how much experience you have with performing thorough and scientifically based analysis in food safety and health related topics but ultimately, we look at the bigger picture. But to give you a bit of guidance as to what we feel is needed in this role, we’ll share our “nice to have” list with you:
