3 days ago
Do you have a curious mindset and experience within organic chemistry? Have you already worked with Contract Manufacturing Organisations (CMOs) or perhaps within a pharmaceutical production? Are you looking for a position with high level of independence and business impact? Then apply today as you might be the Production Specialist we are looking for to represent our CMOs within Novo Nordisk, and Novo Nordisk within our CMOs
The Position
As Production Specialist in External Manufacturing Technology & Optimization (EMTO), you will work closely with CMOs who partner with Novo Nordisk to enable further production of drug substance.
We are involved in the assessment of new CMOs and we bring them to life during the project phase in close collaboration with the process responsible, the project manager and QA. You will be the bridge between what the CMOs can do and what Novo Nordisk want to achieve, with a special focus on facility, equipment, validation and Quality Management System (QMS).
After implementation, you will typically not hold day to day oversight with the CMO, but rather be called upon when there is a need for technical knowledge. You will quickly become a visible beacon of knowledge across and beyond a truly global organisation.
Responsibilities
- Writing and reviewing project documentation, validation reports, master batch records, change requests, deviations etc.
- Be the go to person when it comes to technical processes and equipment facility.
- Engage in discussions between Novo Nordisk and CMOs to make sure that what the business want is feasible.
- Making sure that the QMS of CMO and Novo Nordisk are working together. Understanding the differences between the two QMS.
- Giving advice, proposing, and leading through to completion on continuous improvement projects.
International collaboration is an integrated part of your job, you can expect to be travelling around 20 days per year.
Qualifications
To be considered for this position, we expect you to:
- Hold at least a Master’s Degree in Chemistry, Pharmacy, Engineering or any other relevant field.
- Have previous experience with QMS, documentation and working with/within a CMO/manufacturing plant.
- Possess a strong background in organic chemistry obtained either within the pharmaceutical industry, food production, or dairy industry.
- Be fluent in English, both written and spoken.
As a person, you have excellent communication skills and are good at building trusted relationships with a wide variety of stakeholders. You naturally share important and relevant information. You have a curious mindset and enjoy working independently. Last but not least, you know how to listen and negotiate, but are also able to take a stand when needed.
About the Department
External Manufacturing technology & optimization (EMTO) is a part of Drug substance, Global Contract Manufacturing (GCM). We are responsible for getting the CMO’s production up and running with the right quality to ensure delivery of products from the CMOs to our respective customers. Our CMOs are located in Europe, North America and in East Asia.
GCM Drug substance is responsible for all Novo Nordisk contracts and license manufacturing of API’s, intermediates and excipients to global markets.
The position is in EMTO Chemistry, Small molecules and Sidechains reagents, a team of approx. 10 highly experienced specialists with a well-documented history in pharmaceutical sciences. Our office is located in Høje Taastrup.
