Odense

We are seeking a QC Project Specialist to coordinate and manage quality control testing in our client’s advanced GMP lab. And yes, this is a brand new lab that started in 2024 so you can really expect to work with the latest equipment.

They are a company providing laboratory testing services and with super fast growth of the pharmaceutical industry in Denmark they have found a promising market which also useful for you, as there are quite a high demand in the area for similar positions as well.

Whilst this would initially be a 12 month temporary position (maternity leave cover) there is a very good chance to have this turned into a permanent position after that time period. Furthermore, English is the only required language meaning we are open to speak with anybody from within the EU/Schengen area that might consider a move to Denmark.

You will get a formal employment contract directly with the client including a base salary in and around 55k euros annually (35k DKK per month), but we are happy to discuss a higher level for those with more experience as well. They can also help you out in terms of who to sort a relocation out from a practical standpoint.

This role involves performing analytical testing, method development, and ensuring compliance with GMP standards. You will also act as a project coordinator. More on that below.

Key Responsibilities:

• Analytical Testing: Perform method development, validation, stability testing, and routine analysis using techniques like HPLC, GC, and UV-Vis.
• Data Documentation: Keep accurate records of test results, ensuring compliance with GMP standards and regulatory requirements.
• Method Development and Validation: Develop and implement new analytical methods to meet client and regulatory needs.
• Equipment Maintenance: Qualify, validate, calibrate, and troubleshoot lab instruments to ensure efficiency and accuracy.
• Compliance: Ensure all lab activities comply with GMP, FDA, and other regulations. Participate in quality audits.
• Client Interaction: Communicate with clients about test results and analytical solutions, providing technical support.
• Continuous Improvement: Identify and implement process improvements within the QC department.
• Training: Support, train, and mentor QC staff on GMP standards and lab procedures.

Qualifications:

• Education: Degree in Chemistry, Biology, Pharmaceutical Sciences, or related field; advanced degrees or certifications are a plus.
• Experience: Minimum of 2 years in a GMP QC lab, even better if from a contract lab setting.
• The ideal candidate should have expertise in analytical chemistry, microbiology, or pharmaceutical sciences with proficiency in HPLC, GC, UV-Vis, and/or other analytical techniques. Not every single one is is required but coming from this general background is important given the hands-on nature of the position.
• Fluency in English
