Its continued focus is developing antibody-based therapeutic products for treating cancer and neuro-inflammatory diseases. They are looking for a collaborative and driven Senior/Principal Scientist with expertise in downstream bioprocessing to join the drug substance development group.

With direct report to the Manager of the Purification Team, you will take the scientific lead across key projects in the portfolio to develop and characterize purification processes for drug candidates in both early and late-stage development. The work will be performed in collaboration with colleagues in Denmark and France and strategic partners at external CMOs.

Your main tasks are:

Your qualifications are hands-on experience in the downstream process development of antibody products, along with knowledge of cGMP manufacturing requirements, regulatory submissions, and oversight of outsourced activities. Furthermore, knowledge of bioconjugation is highly important, and your familiarity with this area enhances your ability to contribute to the development of innovative biopharmaceutical products.

You have a qualifying academic/scientific degree supported by relevant experience within pharmaceuticals, biologics or similar.

You are a person who excels as a collaborative team player and who adopts a diplomatic and cooperative approach when working with global cross-functional teams. With strong communication skills, you effectively simplify technical issues for diverse audiences.
