Unilabs is one of Europe's leading medical laboratory and diagnostic imaging providers, offering a comprehensive range of laboratory tests, imaging services, and pathology services. With a presence in over 15 countries, the company performs millions of tests annually and employs a large multidisciplinary team of specialists. Unilabs is part of the larger APHP (Assistance Publique–Hôpitaux de Paris)-affiliated healthcare ecosystem, though it operates independently, and its global headquarters is in Geneva, Switzerland.

In Spain, Unilabs has a significant footprint with operations in Madrid and Barcelona, as well as other cities, and serves as a key hub for its global support functions. The company is actively hiring for corporate, IT, procurement, and legal roles in Spain, indicating a growing shared services and technology center in the country. Unilabs offers an international and collaborative work environment, making it a relevant option for multilingual professionals, especially those fluent in French or English, who are looking to relocate to Spain while working for a major European healthcare diagnostics leader.

It provides diagnostic services including laboratory, pathology, and diagnostic imaging. Over the years, it has expanded significantly, particularly in Spain, Norway, and France, and has become part of the APM group, increasing its global reach.
