Online Analyzer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Who We Are

PAC is a leading global provider of advanced analytical instruments for laboratory and process environments serving the hydrocarbon processing industries. Our customers—among the world’s largest refiners, petrochemical producers, and midstream operators—rely on PAC to deliver the technologies required to maintain regulatory compliance, optimize yields, and improve operational productivity.

Summary

The role is based on the U.S. Gulf Coast or in Western Europe, reflecting PAC’s two largest centers of fuels market activity.

• Market and product intelligence across global regulatory environments and fuel-specification regimes, providing direct input into PAC’s octane and fuels roadmap and influencing next-generation platform and method-support decisions
• CRM rigor and commercial discipline across a global opportunity pipeline, including:
  • Accurate opportunity forecasting by region
  • Clean install-base and method-coverage records
  • Reporting on product attach rates, upgrades, and portfolio penetration within fuels accounts worldwide
