Our agile, self-steering project teams are empowered to take ownership, finding the right balance between support and autonomy. While independence is encouraged, collaboration and guidance are always available when needed.
Career development is central to our culture. We emphasize both personal and collective growth through clear career planning, dedicated learning & development budgets. Through coaching, internal discussions, and shared learning, we are always improving.
We believe in fair and transparent compensation, based on skills, responsibility, ownership, and attitude. Our B Corp status and EcoVadis silver medal reflect our true commitment to sustainability and ethical business practices.
Finally, we are incredibly proud of our diverse, talented group of colleagues, representing a mix of nationalities and backgrounds. Their unique perspectives and experiences are what make Aphea.Bio a dynamic and inspiring place to work.
Our Location: Innovation and Inspiration
Aphea.Bio is strategically located in Techlane Ghent, at the center of Europe's largest Agro-Biotech valley.
This thriving ecosystem connects us with pioneering institutions like VIB, universities, startups, and established companies. It's easy to interact with like-minded experts and draw inspiration from a highly collaborative environment.
Beyond the professional advantages, Ghent offers the best of both worlds—a lively, beautiful medieval city with a vibrant nightlife and rich cultural scene.
Known for its sustainability focus, Ghent is a bike-friendly, eco-conscious city with green initiatives at its core.
We embrace this mindset by offering 100% reimbursement of public transport, a bike allowance, and bike leasing options, making green commuting a seamless part of life at Aphea.Bio.
Is this you?
At Aphea.Bio, we're looking for people who strive to be part of something bigger—those who are eager to drive change and contribute to our evolution.
Starting as an R&D-focused company, we're now shifting towards a more commercial mindset.
If you're excited by the idea of being part of this dynamic transition, there are new opportunities ahead.
We seek:
- Individuals who thrive in a dynamic team and are ready to embrace new challenges.
- People who take initiative and are comfortable making decisions in a supportive, yet autonomous environment.
- Team players who take responsibility and work collaboratively. You'll never be left on your own, but we believe in empowering you rather than spoon-feeding.
