Research Scientist
- Research & Development
- Denmark - Gentofte
The department of Protein Separation & Virology is seeking a candidate with a strong background in project management and protein purification.
About the department
The department is part of CMC API Development, R&D, and is responsible for developing, documenting and transferring scalable purification processes for API’s in order to bring the growing pipeline of new therapeutic proteins into clinical trials. The purification processes typically comprise unit operations such as chromatography, filtration, enzymatic reactions and tangential flow membrane processes, applying state of the art technologies and mechanistic modelling.
The working climate is informal with a high degree of flexibility. The work is performed in multidisciplinary project groups in collaboration with Discovery, Cell culture, Analytical, Formulation, and Quality departments. Thus, a wide interdisciplinary understanding of the development process for biopharmaceuticals is needed to support decision making and progress within this area.
The job
The major task involves formal project management as an API coordinator. In this role, you will prepare and execute API activities to support the project objectives and the CMC strategy. The successful API coordinator is responsible for interaction with the other members of the CMC group, as well as cross organisational stakeholders.
The API activities for which you are responsible are the development of purification processes for new biopharmaceuticals at laboratory scale as well as their transfer to pilot plants for the production of drug substance for clinical trials. Documentation of process robustness and scalability is an integrated part of the work process.
Qualifications
You should hold a scientific academic degree in engineering, biology, chemistry or another relevant discipline. Preferably, you have more than 3 years of experience within the field of protein purification at laboratory, pilot or production scale.
You possess drive and a positive mind-set and you strive to be in a decision-making role. When cooperating, you often take the leading role and you enjoy setting direction to others.
As a person, you are proactive, ambitious and like to be challenged. You continually strive to raise the bar and aspire to be in a decision-making role.
We are an organisation with a continuous need to develop new leaders and therefore leadership ambitions would be an advantage.
At Novo Nordisk, your skills, dedication and ambition help us change lives for the better. In exchange, we offer you an opportunity to work with extraordinary talent and benefit from a range of possibilities for professional and personal development.

Deadline
31 December 2013.
