Remember those posters in the school science lab with the bold statement, “Not all scientists wear lab coats”?
Well, turns out, it’s more than just a catchy phrase. Axil, leading the way in total waste management, is challenging STEM stereotypes, showing that a career in science goes beyond the lab coat.

Axil breaks the “White Coat Myth.”
Contrary to the outdated belief, STEM professionals and waste management experts aren’t always confined to labs. That image is as outdated as the Bunsen burners in your school’s chemistry class! It’s time to redefine the image of a scientist!
Beyond lab coats
Ever wondered why scientists wear lab coats? It’s not just a fashion statement; it’s about protection. But here’s the revelation: not all scientists need them! Roles like site chemist, technical lab chemist, or technical assessor at Axil require a bachelor’s degree in chemistry or equivalent, but they don’t require you to be clad in a lab coat all day. Safety is our priority, and our scientists just have a different look.
Site Chemists exploring what our clients provide, ensuring compliance and safety. Technical Assessors gathering crucial data, shaping how we handle it. Contract Managers applying chemistry skills with innovation, redesigning how waste is managed on-site.
Real world impact
What do these roles entail? Real-world applications of chemistry in fields like waste management! Imagine working outdoors, making a tangible difference for our clients, supporting their environmental improvement goals. It’s more than just conducting analysis; it’s about reshaping waste management with innovation.

At Axil, we view waste differently, collaborating with global leaders in pharmaceuticals, life sciences, and manufacturing. Hazardous waste needs chemists, and we work with our partners to identify valuable by products, ensuring safety and compliance while reducing overall disposal costs.
Amazing career choices
Axil goes beyond the lab. Marine biologists, civil engineers, and computer scientists shape our world. We want to speak with chemists who want to consider the diverse STEM opportunities beyond the traditional lab setting.
Break free from the lab coat image. Axil is leading the way for the real faces of STEM, proving that a passion for science opens doors to a world of opportunities.
