I’m buzzing about Danaher’s new hiring push in Saudi Arabia—seven openings that span clinical, field training, sales, and strategic finance. These aren’t just jobs; they’re careers backed by a global diagnostics leader. The roles include Clinical Application Specialist (Jazan), Finance Director – Diagnostics Platform (Riyadh), Key Account Manager (Eastern Region), Sales Specialist – Molecular Diagnostics (Eastern Region), Field Service & Applications Specialist – Molecular Diagnostics, and Sales & Application Specialist (Jazan Point‑of‑Care). This article breaks down each position, qualifications needed, application tips, and why they’re worth a shot.
Clinical Application Specialist – Jazan Region
You’d be the frontline support hero for Beckman Coulter diagnostic instruments—mainly clinical chemistry, immunoassay, hematology, and more—across Jazan. Expect about 80% travel across labs in the region. The role involves troubleshooting, parameter calibration, quality control, user training, and close collaboration with service and sales teams.
Requirements:
– Bachelor’s in Life Sciences, Medical Lab, or related
– About 2 years’ experience in diagnostics or clinical labs
– Fluent Arabic and English
– Technical know-how in troubleshooting equipment
– Preferably local healthcare market knowledge
This is a great job if you love mixing tech with hands‑on customer support—and you don’t need an engineering degree, just strong lab skills and clinical insight.
Sales and Application Specialist – Jazan, Southern Region (Point‑of‑Care)
Based in Jazan, this sales‑centric role focuses on point‑of‑care diagnostic systems. You’ll be driving product adoption, installing devices, delivering training, and managing post‑installation clinical follow‑ups. Qualifications: Bachelor’s in Clinical Lab Science, Biomedical Science, or Biotechnology; around 5 years in diagnostic sales or applications.
If you’re strong in both sales and technical coaching, this role is right up your alley—and you don’t need an engineering degree, just proven diagnostic sales experience.
Field Service and Applications Specialist – Molecular Diagnostics
In this regional role, you’ll support molecular diagnostics platforms—installations, validations, troubleshooting, and system performance checks at customer sites. The job mixes technical service with clinical applications. While the exact text wasn’t available, it’s clearly designed for those with strong molecular diagnostic or technical field-service backgrounds (via Qureos listing).
Sales Specialist – Eastern Region (Molecular Diagnostics)
This one’s a sales-deep-dive into molecular diagnostics equipment. Your mission: expand market reach, drive sales, engage stakeholders, arrange demos, and support product adoption. It’s a straightforward sales role but with a technical twist—ideal for someone who’s comfortable in clinical and commercial spaces.
Key Account Manager – Eastern Region
You’ll manage major accounts in the Eastern Province—hospitals, labs, distributors—for Beckman Coulter diagnostic products. This role demands strategic relationship building, negotiating tenders, and ensuring customer retention . Strong sales and stakeholder engagement skills, along with regional experience, are key.
Finance Director – Danaher Diagnostics Platform – KSA
This is a senior finance leadership role based in Riyadh. You’ll drive financial planning, forecasting, budgeting, and reporting for the entire Diagnostics Platform (covering Beckman Coulter, Cepheid, Radiometer, Leica Biosystems). Responsibilities include leading FP&A, collaborating with VP & GM on investments, ensuring compliance with US GAAP, SOX, local regulations, and acting as liaison with auditors and regulators (SOCPA, MOH, NUPCO, National Guard).
Requirements:
– Around 20 years of progressive finance leadership
– OneStream, Power BI, Oracle experience
– Master’s in Finance or Accounting; CPA or SOCPA preferred
This is a big strategic role—definitely for seasoned finance professionals, not entry-level folks.
Required Qualifications
– Across all roles, Danaher expects:
– Solid bachelor’s degree (life sciences, medical lab, biotech, finance/accounting)
– Role-specific experience—2+ years for specialist and service roles; 5+ for sales; 20 years for finance director
– Tech-savvy in diagnostics, molecular or clinical; finance systems like OneStream/Power BI for senior finance
– Arabic and English fluency
– Travel flexibility, especially for field-based roles in Jazan and Eastern regions
No need for engineering degrees unless your career path points that way—but strong technical or clinical backgrounds are a must.
Compensation & Benefits
While salaries aren’t listed in the job posts, roles like Clinical Application Specialist and Sales professionals in diagnostics typically range from SAR 12k–25k monthly (depending on experience and region). The Finance Director position is likely to exceed SAR 40k monthly, with performance bonuses and strong benefits.
Benefits usually include health insurance, travel allowances, field-support resources, and access to Danaher’s global development programs.
