Julien Pons
Biotechnology Engineer looking for Market Analyst/Business Development Placement
I graduated with a degree in the field of Biotechnology Sciences at the engineering school Sup'Biotech Paris.
I chose to specialize in the biobased industry and work for the development of this emerging economy in sectors such as chemistry and energy.
I am currently looking for work placements opportunities in companies involved in the research and development of biobased products and processes involving biotechnology (especially 2nd generation biofuels and green chemistry metabolites).
I also have a strong interest for biorefinery projects.
The work placements which fit to me are strategic marketing and business development. I want to gain professional experience in project management in order to attend to a MBA training course.
The training I received allowed me to develop skills and knowledge in laboratory techniques, production processes and market approach tools.
My formation is based on group project work. This allowed me to develop the spirit of synthesis, cooperation and listening to co-workers. My main assets are my capacity for analysis, my rigor, my pedagogy and my networking skills.
If you are interested in my profil, I would be happy to show you my deep motivation to work in this area.
