Job Description:

OT Specialist for Syntese – a Ferring Pharmaceuticals company

Do you have strong technical knowledge and a GMP mindset? Do you enjoy troubleshooting and getting to the core of complex system structures?

At Syntese, we encourage you to utilize your experience and competencies to influence how we work. By managing the OT systems at our manufacturing site in Hvidovre, you will make a critical contribution to ensuring that our production runs 24/7.

“In addition to daily operations, we focus on innovation and digitalization, which involves migrating more IT into the systems. Future projects include an increased focus on data, AVEVA PI, and integrating a new SAP solution,” explains Hassan Aslam, head of our IT/OT function.

Ferring + you
Syntese manufactures Mesalazine, an Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) used in treating inflammatory bowel diseases – and we are renowned worldwide for stable Mesalazine of exceptional quality.

Joining us, you will become part of the Ferring Pharmaceuticals global matrix. This means you will have the opportunity to collaborate with colleagues from across the organization, bringing your unique skills and perspectives to a truly international team.

In Hvidovre, your immediate team includes the head of our IT/OT function, an IT analyst, and an experienced OT consultant, who enjoy sharing knowledge and collaborating to solve problems.

Your day at Ferring
As our OT specialist, you will be central to ensuring (among other things) the stability of the DCS system at our manufacturing site, where you will be responsible for providing operational support and managing projects.

With a focus on governance, maintenance, and compliance, your primary responsibilities will include:

Troubleshooting and providing system support
Managing relations with vendors and staying updated with the latest trends and technologies in OT
Planning, coordinating, and supervising activities related to the integration of OT programs, applications, and third-party solutions
Organizing, defining, and unlocking the large volume of OT data from shop floor systems – and ensuring collection, archiving, and access to support a data-driven organization
Contributing to translating business needs into technical OT solutions and being accountable for the technical part of OT deliverables within the projects

Drawing on your expertise and hands-on experience, you will also contribute to lifecycle management and business-critical projects, including upgrades and alignment of technical systems and processes.

Behind our innovation – there’s you
You bring a combination of technical know-how and excellent communication skills. With your analytical approach and problem-solving ability, you can provide valued support to our colleagues in operations.

Because of your natural curiosity, you proactively seek out new knowledge when needed. At the same time, you are open and transparent when you face a challenge and need help – and you are not afraid to speak up and make your contributions or questions heard.

In addition, you probably have:

Solid experience managing and troubleshooting OT systems
Hands-on experience with major SCADA/Sattline platforms and solutions
A good understanding of GMP rules and regulations
A strong compliance mindset underlined by experience from an industrial company within the pharma, chemistry, or food industry
A degree in engineering, automation, computer science or a related field – or equivalent practical experience

But don’t worry if you don’t meet every single requirement – we value diverse experience and encourage you to apply!

People come first at Ferring
A healthy working environment – in every sense – is a top priority for us. We work hard to maintain this by training our staff, ensuring good communication between employees and managers, supporting teamwork between departments, and offering a range of social activities.

Most of our employees have been with us for many years, which means we are a close-knit company with high job satisfaction – probably because we all contribute value by doing precisely what each of us does best.

Behind our purpose – there’s you
If our mission and your vision are aligned, please apply. Kindly include a few lines regarding your motivation for applying in the CV or a cover letter. Please note that we review applications continuously and close the process when we find the right match.

For any questions, please reach out to the Head of the IT/OT function Hassan Aslam at + 45 42 13 00 05.
