Our teams

Whatever your area of expertise, there’s a place for you here at SPT Labtech.

Scientist, engineer, designer, marketeer…if you’re passionate about what you do, we’re delighted to have you. You could be part of the team that designs and innovates products, you could use your expertize to manufacture them, or you could help take them to market. Our success as a company is based on different thinkers, working collaboratively to challenge the status quo and move things forward. Welcome to the next generation of teamwork.

Research and development

We design solutions for today’s problems, using tomorrow’s technology. Our engineers are more than a cog in a wheel – our R&D team has the freedom to drive change, think for themselves and build ideas that are tailor made to meet the client’s needs. This is where functionality meets design.

Commercial

Our Sales and Commercial teams are approachable, friendly and enjoy building personalised relationships. The more we understand our customers, the more we’re able to meet their goals – we’re in this for the long term and we hope you will be too.

Software

In a market whose expectations are always increasing, our Software team has to challenge, improve and innovate continuously. It’s not about coming second to the product – our UX driven design creates interfaces that bring value, whilst being streamlined and simple to use.

Field Application Scientists (FAS)

Our scientists are central to our business. As well as providing scientific advice and helping our lab teams with installation and design, they’re a vital part of our evaluation loop, listening to customers’ comments and feedback and ultimately enhancing their experience.

Manufacturing

You can have the best ideas in the world, but if you can’t deliver them, they’re nothing. Our Manufacturing team make design concepts a reality through their expertise, precision and technical skill. Whether working on the instruments themselves or on consumables, our high quality manufacturing means every product is built to the highest specification, for reliable, robust data.

Service and solution

Our job doesn’t end once a product is manufactured. With our reliance service, every instrument we supply is designed to continue performing optimally, thanks to the support of our field service engineers. Remote and on-site training and support give our customers access to the reliance team’s collective expertise, helping you to address challenges and advance research goals throughout an instrument’s life.
