In partnership with our stakeholders, we set the direction for future collaboration with the CMOs in terms of capacity build up, supply chain strategies, collaboration models, and quality oversight.

You will join a department of 14 (and still growing) highly dedicated and talented colleagues, where we have an informal and direct tone and where we value each other’s differences.
