IT & Microsoft Cloud Administrator Specialist

About Us

Landcent is a global, science-driven healthcare company dedicated to accelerating the fight against diseases of poverty, starting with malaria. Headquartered in the Netherlands, with operations in Africa and Asia, we recognize that malaria remains one of the world’s most devastating and inequitable health challenges, disproportionately affecting the most vulnerable communities. Despite decades of progress, malaria cases continue to rise, with 1,645 deaths occurring every day—95 percent in sub-Saharan Africa and 75 percent among children under five—driven by growing insecticide resistance and limited product innovation.

We exist to change this trajectory. Landcent identifies critical gaps across the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment landscape, and develops and delivers impactful solutions to address them. As a company, we are approaching a pivotal moment with the upcoming market launch of several of our impactful products, including our flagship bed net. By 2030, our products are expected to protect more than 150 million people from malaria.

Joining Landcent means becoming part of an international and diverse team united by a shared commitment to saving and improving the lives of vulnerable communities. We are seeking individuals who excel in their areas of expertise and who are passionate about making a tangible difference in the lives of millions, driven by the vision of a world where diseases of poverty are a global priority and vulnerable communities have the opportunity to thrive. If you are motivated by challenging work that directly advances the fight against diseases of poverty, starting with malaria, Landcent offers a unique opportunity to contribute to a cause that is both urgent and critical to global health.
