doctorate holder
Not one word, but a compound noun... seems this is used in official statistics. Could work for you!

"doctorate holder" Thanks, but 'uhg.' The job prospects for doctorate holders are good. |
"Master of Research" You come up with things that nobody has ever heard of; yet truly do exist. |

Agneta Pallinder
: Your EU source also calls them "research qualification holders" which is true enough but a bit of a mouthful.

Discussion
Would a company announce a vacancy for a "postgraduate"?
Wiki says this... "Licentiatexamen återinfördes i Sverige på 1980-talet vid vissa fakulteter som en frivillig mellanexamen i forskarutbildningen. Hur vanligt det varit att avlägga licentiatexamen har varierat mellan olika universitet, fakulteter och institutioner sedan detta återinförande. På vissa ställen har licentiatexamen enbart använts när doktorander har velat avsluta sin forskarutbildning i förtid, medan andra institutioner har tillämpat principen att alla bör avlägga licentiatexamen som ett led på vägen till doktorsexamen. "
Which indicates 'forskarutbildning' means doctorate, if it can be ended (avluta sin forskarutbildning i förtid) to get a masters (licentiat).
