This is VELUX Emerging Technologies.

Right now, we are looking for a wood expert with focus on enhancing wood properties, who wants to take the responsibility for the development of new wood types and wood treatments, including surface finish for low maintenance or coating combined with experience within processing of wood, to ensure that VELUX products will keep their long life expectancy while being sustainable. Is this you?

Your challenges

This position gives you a great opportunity of becoming part of leading VELUX into the future with sustainable wood, while working in an approximately 20 people team focusing on identifying and maturing emerging technologies.

The position includes technical evaluation of new design properties, constructions, wood types and treatments.

Furthermore, you have a strong drive to achieve great results through cross-organisational collaboration, and you dare to challenge the status quo through argumentation, testing and listening. You have strong communication skills, experience in handling stakeholders and thrive in the field between theory and actual implementation of technologies.
