Ready to become the technical expert shaping the future of BD COR across APAC?
You've spent your career solving complex technical problems, supporting sophisticated laboratory instrumentation and building a reputation as the person people turn to when systems are down and answers aren't obvious.
Now there's an opportunity to take that expertise to a regional level.
Join Waters in a newly created APAC role and become the technical leader responsible for helping shape the future service landscape for BD COR across the region. Working across multiple countries, you'll play a critical role in building technical capability, strengthening self-sufficiency and reducing reliance on global escalations, helping customers achieve exceptional system performance and uptime.
At Waters, innovation isn't just about technology. It's about enabling scientific discovery and improving lives.
As the APAC Principal Technical Specialist - BD COR, you'll be the region's go-to technical expert for BD COR, partnering closely with Field Service Engineers, Technical Specialists, Remote Support teams and global product experts to deliver exceptional technical outcomes across APAC.
This is more than a technical support role. It's an opportunity to build capability, influence strategy and create a lasting impact on how technical support is delivered across an entire region.
This role can be based in Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane.
