Job Description
A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a Senior Chemical Engineer. This role will work with new Small Molecule (SM) API Products.
Small Molecule Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) manufacturing is changing with the pipeline of the future including molecules of increasing complexity (such as ADC's and macrocyclic peptides), lower volume and higher potency products and increasing utilisation of new and sustainable technologies such as flow chemistry, continuous manufacturing, photo and biocatalyst driven chemical synthesis.
To enable this change, the site is investing in flexible facilities and infrastructure with small-scale trains for multiproduct commercialisations for low volume/high potent API as well as future specialised skids for new technologies.
This role provides exciting and challenging opportunities to work on multiple API projects, ranging from manufacturing support activities to late-stage clinical product development and scale-up, new product introductions and technology transfers across our existing and new facilities of the future.
What you will do:
Lead engineer on new product introductions and/or technical transfers to and from the site, including new technologies.
Co-develop new SM API products with Research and Development partners globally.
Direct day-to-day project development plans.
Provide knowledge and subject matter expertise on API processing unit operations and scale up to colleagues in Quality, Supply Chain and Manufacturing Operations.
