A Master's Degree in Chemistry, Pharmacy, Engineering, or a related natural science field
A strong background in chromatographic methods (HPLC, GC, IC) and method validation
Experience with pharmacopoeia compliance
Proficiency in written and spoken English

It is advantageous to have knowledge of Danish, systematic problem solving, LIMS (Lab Vantage), Empower, and process optimization

As a person, you enjoy working in project groups and bring a high level of energy to drive both yourself and your colleagues towards achieving milestones. You work in a structured manner, finding robust solutions that ensure the correct quality level. You thrive in environments where priorities can shift, and complexity can be high. You motivate your colleagues with a positive, proactive attitude and contribute to a strong team spirit.

About the department

In Analytical Development, we are approximately 40 employees across 3 teams, located in Hillerød, where we have laboratory facilities and offices. We are responsible for the development, verification, validation, implementation, and optimization of analyses for complex materials (e.g., raw materials, excipients, and primary packaging materials). We hand over fully developed methods to Quality Control (QC) and collaborate with various stakeholders, including QC, Quality Assurance (QA), Material Responsible Scientists, and Novo Nordisk production sites globally. We are part of Material Manufacturing Development within External Supply Sourcing Operations, which is overall responsible for Novo Nordisk's incoming supply chain.

The working environment is open, ambitious, and dynamic, with a focus on sustainable well-being. We maintain strong collaboration within the team, the department, and with our primary stakeholders. The team is responsible for developing a wide range of chromatographic methods for raw materials and excipients. You will be responsible for the development, verification, and validation of new methods, as well as problem-solving and optimizing already implemented chromatographic methods. These methods are then transferred to Sourcing QC, which handles the daily operation and analyses.
