Are you looking for new challenges within solid dosage forms and do you want to make a difference? Our Oral Protein Formulation Unit (OPF) in Måløv is expanding therefore we are looking for several dedicated, professional and enthusiastic new colleagues. Novo Nordisk is on a voyage towards the development and production of oral formulations of proteins. Our ambition is to develop break-through products based on orally available versions of insulin and GLP-1. You will be involved in CMC activities for pilot production of solid protein dosage forms towards clinical trials.
About the department
We are creating a new QC team of 12 employees in department of Oral Analytical Development and the department will be organised in three teams, Development, Support and QC. We will be 48 colleagues, who are responsible for development, validation of analytical methods and analytical support for oral protein products for preclinical and clinical trials. The department covers a broad range of analytical technologies.
The job
The QC team will carry out analytical support to phase 3 of oral formulations of proteins. The analytical methods cover chromatographic methods (HPLC/UPLC methods) and methods for solid dose formulation (e.g. dissolution). Other key tasks include analytical support to GMP stability, formulation and process development. The different tasks involve planning, troubleshooting, NC and OOS handling and evaluation of the analytical work in collaboration with laboratory technicians. You contribute actively to ensure documentation of analytical work to the right quality level and maintain the quality system in the team.
You can look forward to work with the challenges that arise when proteins/peptides are formulated as solid dosage forms. The position involves close collaboration with colleagues from formulation and process development.
Qualifications
