Are you seeking new challenges in an international and inspiring work environment? If so, this newly created position as Technician in our QC Stability team within Quality Control (QC) might be the perfect opportunity for you.
At AGC Biologics, we specialize in the development of biopharmaceutical production processes and GMP manufacturing for both clinical trials and commercial distribution. As a contract manufacturing organization, we are consistently focused on delivering a high level of service to our clients.
Structure of QC
Quality Control (QC) is comprised of four main departments: QC Support, QC Bioassay, QC Chemistry, and QC Microbiology, with a total of approximately 190 employees.
QC Stability is part of QC Support, assisting all QC departments as well as other divisions within AGC Biologics. You will join a team of three Technicians and five Scientist.
All QC departments are responsible for supporting the production of new drugs in phases I/II and III, as well as commercial pharmaceuticals. The overarching responsibility of the QC Stability team is being responsible for managing our customer’s stability programs for Drug Substances as well as Drug Products. Furthermore, QC Stability also conducts annual testing of reference materials on request and offers support in freeze-thaw cycle studies of the biopharmaceuticals. All work is conducted under cGMP standards.
Responsibilities and Focus Areas
Are you structured, detail-oriented, adaptable, experienced in handling diverse tasks, and familiar with cGMP? If so, you may be the colleague we are looking for. The QC Stability team is seeking a new member for the newly established technician position, which is a full-time role (37 hours per week).
Your daily work will involve varied tasks, extensive collaboration with your team members, and engagement across the organization.
AGC Biologics has expanded its Copenhagen site in Søborg with an additional production building, and the team now handles tasks in both production facilities.
As a technician, you will be part of a team responsible for a wide range of exciting tasks that will primarily consist of preparing weekly stability pulls, the handling of samples whether it’ll be shipping to external laboratories or delivering them to internal testing teams.
Please note that the QC Stability team does not perform analyses or laboratory testing.
You will join a well-functioning team in an open and informal environment, where no two days are alike. The pace is fast, and there is significant interaction with the rest of the organization. In this newly created position, you will take on multiple functions, ranging from office work and stakeholder support to operational tasks in our two production buildings. Therefore, it will be advantageous if you are service-minded, familiar with cGMP, and comfortable managing multiple roles and tasks in your daily work.
Key Responsibilities Include:
- Ensuring compliance with all cGMP requirements
- Assisting with study starts and execution
- Preparing weekly stability pulls
- Preparing weekly external laboratory shipments
- Overseeing housekeeping in QC Stability across both production buildings
- Preventive maintenance of stability equipment
- Handling ad hoc tasks
Your Profile
You are naturally outgoing, understand process flows, are cooperative, and possess a strong sense of logistics. It is essential that you thrive in a busy and dynamic environment and can maintain an overview despite a work pace, where you are constantly challenged with numerous tasks throughout the day. You should be service-minded, solution-oriented, collaborative, and enjoy interacting with a variety of colleagues throughout the day.
Since we operate under cGMP standards, you must have the necessary structure and attention to detail to ensure everything is in order. Experience in a similar organizational structure would be an advantage.
If this sounds interesting, you might be the perfect candidate to join our QC Stability team.
