Would you like to work with future process support and project work in an aseptic pilot production, where a growing product portfolio, new technologies and increased requirements give us exciting new challenges? Do you want to work with Novo Nordisk’s exciting new drug candidates? If yes, then we have the job for you.

The Position

As a Senior Pilot Scientist you will be part of the Process Support team that has 20 dedicated and skilled colleagues. Together, you provide process support for washing & sterilization, environment, formulation, filling and manual inspection. You will therefore have the opportunity to contribute broadly in a dynamic team with several exciting processes and work project-oriented.

A large part of your work will involve:

-Optimization of workflows and processes
-Complex problem solving
-Collaboration and support for our clinical productions
-Collaboration with our colleagues in formulation development on future products
-Review of batch and environmental documentation, instructions, change cases and deviation management to ensure release of our products for clinical trials
 

As almost every production is a new project in the department, these tasks are rarely routine and often require interdisciplinary solutions with colleagues both inside and outside the department. In addition, you and your colleagues will work on exciting projects to ensure that APP’s processes meet the tightened Annex 1 requirements. We are thus facing the implementation of SAP/PAS-X and a new isolator filling line in the coming years.

Qualifications

To succeed in this role, you have:

-At least a master’s degree in pharmacy, chemical engineering or a similar scientific education.
-Preferably relevant work experience in aseptic production in the pharmaceutical industry, preferably in formulation or filling.
-Good knowledge of GMP in aseptic production is considered as an highly advantage
-Excellent communication skills written and speaking in Danish and English.
 

As a colleague, you are first and foremost a team player – only together can we succeed! You have a good sense of humor and with initiative, flexibility and independence, you take responsibility for new tasks. You approach work with the attitude that we in the team and department make each other better. We expect you to be good at structuring and planning your work and thrive in a changing everyday life where priorities are constantly being set and new decisions made.

About the Department

At Aseptic Pilot Plant (APP), we are in the exciting interface between development and production and therefore have broad contact with many different functions in Novo Nordisk. We manufacture injectable sterile products for clinical trials – primarily phase 1 and 2. The products vary, but they are all produced according to applicable GMP requirements in an aseptic environment. Some of these products are outsourced, and we therefore have partners globally.

We have an exciting everyday life where tasks are challenging and varied. We approach tasks with curiosity and the desire to make a difference. APP is located in Måløv and is part of CMC Drug Product & Analytical Development. The department consists of approximately 90 employees – all on day shift – and includes process areas such as washing & sterilization, formulation, filling, inspection, supply, environment, cleaning, maintenance and calibration.

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.
