Are you a highly motivated leader, driven by complex challenges with experience in QA? Do you want to be part of a fantastic QA team that values team spirit, empowerment, and good collaboration with our stakeholders? Are you passionate about motivating and supervising a team and helping them perform at their best to ensure the manufacture, assembly, and packaging of Novo Nordisk Drug Products from our Contract Manufacturing Organizations across Asia, the Middle East, and Africa? If yes, apply now for a life-changing career as QA Manager in our Local CMO QA team in Global Contract Manufacturing Drug Products.

The Position

You will be QA manager for a team of currently 8 highly skilled dedicated employees. You will play a key role in managing, developing, and shaping your team and improving how we work with quality assurance. The team is working from Denmark, India, and Bangladesh and will, in the beginning of 2025, expand with 3 new colleagues in Denmark and South Africa to meet the increasing need for our products.

You and your team will cooperate closely with external Contract Manufacturing Organizations in Asia, the Middle East, and Africa to ensure our products in local and global markets. The team is responsible for QA oversight, to set the compliance direction and advise our CMOs to ensure the highest quality products are released timely to our patients.

  • Handle daily operations of your CMOs such as release from manufacturing and finished packed products to the markets, deviations, and Change Control.
  • Own the Quality Agreements.
  • Ensure strong partnership with our CMOs.
  • Train, coach, and mentor our CMOs to build up the quality mindset, Quality and Compliance culture, a strong Quality Management System, and understanding of EU GMP.

In addition, you will be part of the experienced management group and will work closely with your management colleagues on day-to-day operations and people management-related matters.

Qualifications

Your key to success in this role lies within your ability to perform as an inspiring, coaching, and motivating leader while practicing good stakeholder management with CMOs in an internal dynamic organization.

To succeed in this role, you have:

  • A master’s degree in life science such as pharmaceutical science, engineering, or a related discipline.
  • Ability to set directions, ensure compliance in close collaboration with your team and stakeholders.
  • Experience in Quality or production such as aseptic processing, assembly, and packaging.
  • Experience in people management.
  • Excellent quality mindset.
  • Knowledge of GMP rules and quality assurance in the pharmaceutical industry.

As a person, you have a high drive and sense of initiative combined with empathy and the ability to support and engage employees and stakeholders. You seek out improvements and optimizations as a natural way of working. You are known for your positive mindset, and you enjoy working in a dynamic environment with changing priorities. As we cooperate broadly with many stakeholders, excellent collaboration and communication skills are needed. You are fluent in English, both written and spoken.

About the Department

Global Contract Manufacturing (GCM) QA is responsible for quality assurance and quality support to outsourced production activities worldwide. In LMCO QA, one of the primary roles is to deliver QA support and set direction for CMOs in countries where local presence is required to maintain market access.

GCM QA is a dynamic department consisting of 80 competent people divided into 10 teams with a focus on either operations or projects. You will be a strong player in the project team. The department is characterized by a high level of professionalism, flexibility, and cooperation. The primary role of our department is to deliver QA support and set direction for our local and global CMOs. We focus on good social relations and prioritize making room for fun at work.

At the moment, the workplace is in Søborg, but we will be relocated to Høje Taastrup by February 2025.

Working at Novo Nordisk

At Novo Nordisk, we don’t wait for change. We drive it. We’re a dynamic company in an even more dynamic industry, and we know that what got us to where we are today is not necessarily what will make us successful in the future.

From research and development through to manufacturing, marketing, and sales – we’re all working to move the needle on patient care.
