- Research & Development
- Denmark - Bagsværd
Do you dream about working with optimization and support? Do you have substantial experience with protein purification? Then you might be our new chemist for the purification team in Diabetes API (DAPI) Process Support.
About the department
You will join Manufacturing Development (MDev) where you can look forward to become part of a dynamic and well-functioning team consisting of 6 research scientists, 6 laboratory technicians and a project manager. We enjoy scientific challenges; we work independently with great responsibility and with a high level of commitment. We have many contacts/stakeholders in the organization including DAPI, CMC (development), RA (regulatory affairs), QA and others. The department is located in Bagsværd, but has also offices in Kalundborg, and you should expect to work there approximately 1 day a week.
The job
DAPI Process Support provides support to DAPI’s production departments (located in Kalundborg) within the areas: process optimization, troubleshooting and transfer of new processes from development to production. We are responsible for the completion of process characterization of development projects. As we support the API production, your job will be to contribute to continuous stable operations and quality in the running productions. You will, among other things, be working with exciting optimization projects focusing on improving quality, capacity and cost efficiency. Your field of work will, among other things, be: commenting on process deviations, planning and reporting on laboratory experiments, preparation and maintenance of SOP’s and scientific discussions with our production.
The position offers opportunities to be creative and to test optimization proposals in our laboratories. Since the job is mostly self-organized, it is very important that you are able to prioritize work assignments as well as being comfortable in a changing and sometimes hectic environment. In this job you can look forward to the possibility of personal as well as professional development.
Qualifications
We imagine that you hold an educational background as Engineer, Cand. Scient., Pharmacist or similar and have several years of experience within protein chemistry, protein purification or similar. As a person you work independently, are able to handle a complex workday and are comfortable with a close and cheerful collaboration with your team and department. You are responsible, flexible, and have the courage and urge to engage in new assignments and stick to them until the job is finished. It is important that you are a good communicator, since you are in daily contact with other chemists, technicians, production employees, project managers, analytical laboratories and others. Beyond this, we expect you to be an open and outgoing person with a positive mindset which will be an advantage in our working environment where a good laugh is appreciated even when things are getting hectic.
At Novo Nordisk, we strive for excellence. As a world leader in diabetes care and a major player in haemostasis management, growth hormone therapy and hormone replacement therapy, we offer our employees opportunities for continuous growth.
Feel free to submit you application in either English or Danish.
