3 days ago

Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark Novo Nordisk AS Full time

Do you consider yourself an inspiring leader, ready to be part of shaping the manufacturing of future products at Novo Nordisk? Do you enjoy making an impact through the success of your team? If so, you could be our new Manager to lead one of the New Product Introduction (NPI) Manufacturing Processes teams in Aseptic Manufacturing Science & Technology (AMSAT). We have two open Manager positions for two separate Manufacturing Processes teams.

The Position
As Manager of a Process Development Team within New Product Introduction, you will be leading 11-13 dedicated scientists and specialists. The teams' main task is to establish, characterize and scale the aseptic manufacturing processes (formulation and filling) for new drug products, from small volume into full scale commercial size. Through this work, the teams have a huge impact on the success of future injectable products within Novo Nordisk's full product portfolio.

Your main tasks will be to:

  1. Drive innovation and efficiency within the team, ensuring the prioritizations are clear, strategies are executed, and timelines met.
  2. Lead the team through employee engagement, defining individual business and behaviour goals, ensure hiring and job training, champion personal and professional development, as well as manage regular follow-up on project task progress.
  3. Allocate and manage resources from the team to key development projects.
  4. Collaborate with a large internal and external stakeholder landscape to ensure seamless integration of new processes, and success across the company.

As a person you are open, honest, and curious, and you enjoy seeing your team shine and succeed through collaboration and teamwork. You set tangible goals and communicate them clearly, ensuring that everyone knows how to be a success, and what the priorities are.

Qualifications
To succeed in this role, you have:

  1. An academical background in sciences, engineering, pharmacy or similar.
  2. A solid leadership background within product development or pharmaceutical production. Experience with (aseptic) manufacturing processes can be an advantage.
  3. An ability to balance short term deliverables with long term focus, prioritizing and creating transparency for your team.
  4. Effective communication and collaboration skills.
  5. Fluency in English language.

You enjoy working with people, have excellent people skills, and are always looking for ways to improve and develop your leadership abilities. You inspire and energise your surroundings, set clear and ambitious goals, and generally lead with empathy and behavioural role-modelling.

You know the value of building relations and earning trust and respect from colleagues and employees. You work to bridge cultural, professional and geographical distances, focusing on how to reach sustainable solutions in an ever-changing environment.

About the Department
In Aseptic Manufacturing (AM) we produce our many high-quality injectable products for diabetes, bleeding disorders, growth hormone, and obesity worldwide, and the AMSAT organisation is a global function, supporting all our manufacturing sites worldwide with process, product, and analytical expertise. New Product Introduction (NPI) consists of 90 employees, and we are currently located in Bagsværd. The main responsibility of the area is the transition of development drug products into large scale production. This includes production design, material and process sciences, product stability incl. specification setting and trending, coordination of manufacturing for late-phase clinical trials, and filing for market approval with health authorities.

Within NPI, two departments have the main responsibility of ensuring development of new drug products, and the project portfolio is split between them. Each department is organised with project managers, product scientists, and manufacturing process scientists, each being a key part of upscaling and bringing new drug products to market.

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. We embrace the spirit of experimentation, striving for excellence without fixating on perfection. We never shy away from opportunities to develop, we seize them. From research and development, through to manufacturing, marketing and sales – we're all working to move the needle on patient care.

Contact
For further information, please contact the hiring managers of the respective departments: Chris Arnrød Andersen at +45 3075 2190, or Sussie Steen Jensen at +45 3075 9955.

Deadline
5 January 2025.

You do not need to attach a cover letter to your application, but please include a few sentences about why you are applying in your resume or CV. To ensure an efficient and fair recruitment process, please refrain from adding a photo in your CV.

We commit to an inclusive recruitment process and equality of opportunity for all our job applicants.

At Novo Nordisk we recognize that it is no longer good enough to aspire to be the best company in the world. We need to aspire to be the best company for the world and we know that this is only possible with talented employees with diverse perspectives, backgrounds and cultures. We are therefore committed to creating an inclusive culture that celebrates the diversity of our employees, the patients we serve and communities we operate in. Together, we're life changing.
