Agilent Technologies Netherlands BV is located in Amstelveen, 10 km South of Amsterdam, one of the liveliest capitals in the world. Thanks to our central position in Europe, we are host to a very diversified mix of employees. Half of the staff serves local markets in sales and support in two areas: the Life Sciences and Chemical Analysis and the Test and Measurement organization. The other half focuses on Agilent's main European organizations.

Our multinational staff is mainly active in two European centers:

• Analytical Response Center Europe supports Agilent's customers in the usage of analytical or chemical applications and software. These customers are the major analytical laboratories within the pharmaceutical, petrochemical, food, environmental and industry markets. The team includes highly specialized international engineers who are supporting European, Middle Eastern, African and Brazilian customers.
  
• European Marketing Organization represents the center for Agilent Test & Measurement product marketing in Europe. Its main activities include developing and implementing the European marketing strategy and ensuring that Agilent Test & Measurement products receive high visibility in the European marketplace.

A Commitment to Work/Life Balance gives each and every employee the space to enjoy life, their families and friendships. Flexible time off, flexible schedules, telecommuting and company-sponsored activities are only some of the ways we help keep inspiration coming.

Training and Development is offered through a wide range of programs, workshops and classes. A tuition reimbursement policy and distance learning degree programs with major universities complete our educational offerings.

Time to Play and Relax is essential to the creative process, so we offer all kinds of outlets for doing exactly that. It could be on-site massage or yoga classes. Fitness rooms and outdoor sports facilities. Sports teams and clubs. Even free vacation retreats. Every location has its own offering, designed to meet the unique interests and needs of the people who work there. But wherever you are, you'll never be far from a great way to refresh yourself and your ingenuity.
