Would you like to be a part of shaping the future of manufacturing? Are you motivated by leading the inspect filled product process to excellence across our global sites and do you have exceptional skills in stakeholder management?

If so, come join us as an Operational Process Lead for Inspect Filled Product process in our business unit Aseptic Manufacturing (AM)!

The position
As the Operational Process Lead for the Inspect Filled Product process, you will oversee this process across our global manufacturing sites in the Aseptic Manufacturing (AM) unit. Thus, you will collaborate with stakeholders both locally and globally and work closely with our Novo Nordisk Senior Process Manager for Inspect Filled Product, whom you will indirectly report to. You will be a key member of the process group, understanding shopfloor operations across our factory sites and translating strategy projects into actions and initiatives that benefit production. All new standard inspection lines will be the focus of this work, where you will play a key role in maintaining these standards throughout their lifetime.

Your key responsibilities will include:

• Being close to shopfloor across AM sites located in Europe, North and South America, and Asia to understand needs and act as a liaison between Process groups and production to ensure alignment on process initiatives and roll out of upgrades.
• Analyzing processes for inefficiencies, identify risks, and drive improvement initiatives.
• Maintaining standards across our global production network while continuously improving processes.
• Working close with the Novo Nordisk Inspect Filled Product Process Manager and collaborate with other groups (improvement groups, different network groups, other process groups etc.).
• Working with various stakeholders along the value stream.

Moreover, in this role, you will translate strategy into impact in production for our Inspect Filled Product process, analyze data to focus efforts where needed to improve performance, and drive continuous improvement initiatives.

You should anticipate traveling to other sites in addition to engaging in virtual collaboration. Ideally, you will work from one of our production sites in Chartres (France), Clayton (US), or Monte Claros (Brazil) or Tianjin (China), where we will implement the initial standard inspection lines. While working from Denmark is also an option, extensive travel to our sites is to be expected for this role.

Qualifications
To succeed in this role, you have:

• An Academic Degree within engineering or similar field combined with at least 7 years of experience within manufacturing with some of the years being within or close to the Inspect Filled Product process related to GxP regulated pharmaceutical manufacturing environment.
• Experience with project management within a global stakeholder landscape.
• Leadership experience is an advantage.
• Track record in creating followership through changes in how we work.
• Professional proficiency in English.

On a personal level, you excel in fast-paced environments, maintain high work quality, and enjoy cross-cultural collaboration. With practical knowledge of inspection processes and LEAN experience, you have strong leadership skills, direct management experience, and can lead stakeholders indirectly. Your background in business strategy, project management, and implementation within a global organization complements your team-player mindset and "can-do" attitude. You are eager to learn, innovate, and improve process efficiency.
