And at the same time driving research you are passionate about? Then come join us for an exciting career opportunity at Oticon– a company truly known for our commitment to audiology. You will be working in our Danish headquarter located on the outskirts of Copenhagen, Denmark. Define future hearing solutions and move the limits of what hearing technology can do If you understand the needs and desires of people with hearing impairment this job offers a chance to influence and change hearing care to optimize treatment strategies. In your new job you will be part of the Centre for Applied Audiology Research which consists of 5 researchers and 2 student research assistants. We do research and communication related to hearing technology and hearing aid benefits. These benefits are documented through scientific publications, technical documentation provided by internal collaborators or through clinical research with independent research partners. The group sets a direction for R&D audiology and acts as the interface between audiology and the commercial organization. You will be responsible for defining requirements for new functionality, and ensuring evidence is in place on time for product launches. You will use evidence to build audiological communication that is in line with our strategy and vision and communicate to a wide range of professionals in the field of audiology. You will be working closely together with engineers, audiologists, sales and marketing people, customers and not the least external researchers. You will stay up to date on the latest research in a broad audiology field, use that to define new solutions and do research with innovative people in the field to develop knowledge on use and benefits. Audiologist with research experience and communication skills To handle your future challenges, we expect you to hold a PhD in Audiology or related field and have at least 4 years of post-doctoral research experience. Furthermore, you possess knowledge within areas such as amplification, acoustics, signal processing, hearing devices and transducers, audiology and evidence based practice. You also have clinical experience or a deep understanding of clinical audiology. Research experience within cognitive neuroscience or cognitive hearing science and/or pediatric audiology will be a major advantage. Communication is an important part of this job - written, oral, on-site and off-site, which requires an efficient communicator who is able to target a given audience, view the same issue from different perspectives and use this to obtain the right solution. Your collaboration partners and colleagues see you as open and inquiring in your contact and communication. You are able to discuss specific challenges of clinical practice with a colleague one day and be deeply involved in designing an experiment on a new technology another day. And you enjoy both situations! Speaking and writing in English to many different audiences comes natural to you. Want to join the team?
