Senior specialist R&D Academic Relations
- Research & Development
- Denmark - Måløv
If you have a strong combination of business understanding, pharmaceutical research & development experience, and relationship management competencies, this is a rare opportunity to play a key role in enabling the long-term success of the Novo Nordisk R&D organisation.
About the department
You will join R&D Academic Relations located in Måløv. We are responsible for developing and maintaining a consolidated and strategic approach to the collaboration with selected academic institutions across R&D. Our objective is to facilitate talent attraction and competency building in Novo Nordisk R&D. As such, one of our core responsibilities is the management of Novo Nordisk’s PhD and PostDoc program (STAR) that is currently employing app. 80 fellows.
The job
Your focus will be to support our outreach to selected Danish and international universities in order to facilitate strategic collaboration with these universities. As such, you will drive fellowship activities from proposal to implementation to ensure identification, attraction and recruitment of international talents to our global R&D organisation. You will handle optimisation, coordination and integration of fellowship programs across R&D including the STAR, PhD school and Scholarship programs. Another vital task will be to plan and carry out ongoing development, implementation and optimisation of processes that can reduce the administrative workload related to the main tasks in the job. You must establish a close collaboration with the R&D Line of Business and other units with an external focus including sourcing units and HR. Hence, your ability to coordinate internally and externally is crucial for your success.
Qualifications
To succeed in this job, you will need to have a solid academic background – you probably have a PhD degree within Natural Sciences or similar. This has provided you with knowledge about the dynamics of the academic community and made you capable of working with English as your primary language. Your previous career has given you at least five years of experience from one or more jobs where you have worked with external relations in academia or in the pharmaceutical industry – ideally with an international scope. You are an experienced project manager who can steer processes and projects all the way from initial analyses through strategy development to final implementation. You have solid networking and communication skills, and at the same time, you know the value of creating results based on true teamwork. Furthermore, you rely on your resilience and will to push through. Finally, as you will be acting as our ambassador, high personal integrity and impeccable values must constitute your personality.
At Novo Nordisk, you will be part of a company respected equally for its financial results and its business ethics. Across geographical, cultural and professional communities we develop and deliver innovative medicines.
