Research Scientist Chemistry, Compound Management

Are you a passionate scientist, eager to join a company at the forefront of sample management technologies? Would you like to contribute to the continuous improvement of life-changing projects? Perfect, we have a new challenge for you

We are looking for a motivated and engaged team member for our Compound Management team at our vibrant R&D site at AstraZeneca in Gothenburg, Sweden.

In this role you will be responsible for the storage and timely supply of compounds to AstraZeneca’s drug discovery projects. Highly automated liquid handling systems will be employed to supply molecules to AstraZeneca scientists and partner organisations. You will be a part of the Discovery Sciences organisation, operating within a first-class scientific environment to support drug discovery across each of AstraZeneca’s Therapeutic Areas.

Thrive in a place where the brightest and most curious minds seamlessly come together in our inclusive environment.

What you will do:

In this position, you will get the opportunity to work in a dynamic and enthusiastic environment, whilst delivering critical support to all phases of drug discovery projects and working with a broad range of chemical modalities. You will be supporting projects by providing compounds in the requested format - assay ready plates, serially diluted mother plates, formulations and solids. Bringing in new capabilities and building new processes are core activities within our group, performed in a cross-functional collaboration setting with the drug discovery projects.

You are expected to act upon day-to-day issues that occur whilst processing samples and run Compound Management development projects to ensure continuous improvement within the local team and the global department.

Why AstraZeneca?

Here we are committed to making a difference. We have built our business around our passion for science. Now we are fusing data and technology with the latest scientific innovations to achieve the next wave of breakthroughs.

This is a consultant assignment with Randstad Life Sciences. Randstad Life Sciences is specialized in competences within Life Science. As a consultant you get a competitive salary, benefits and collective agreements. Your consultant manager ensures that you get varying and developing assignments at different companies, within different industries. At Randstad Life Sciences, your personal development is in focus, and you are offered a large network and many social activities.

Responsibilities

- Designing, performing and interpreting experiments independently to investigate process improvements and evaluate new technologies.
- Working closely with internal project teams to meet drug discovery needs.
- Rapidly addressing customer queries with regards to Compound Management orders, software, processes and capabilities.
- Achieving personal scientific visibility through project contributions, internal presentations and publications.

We work collaboratively within our Compound Management team to understand the customer needs and how to add value through our experience and capabilities. To maintain this position and provide support within agreed service levels, we actively seek ways to improve our process and exploit new technologies.

Deadline 2024-02-27 - the selection process and interviews will be ongoing, so please apply as soon as possible

Qualifications

Essential for the role:

Compound Management is a highly collaborative group, working to tight delivery schedules - so the ability to be comfortable working at a fast, goal-oriented pace, with a team-focused attitude, is essential to being successful in the role. Furthermore, you have excellent communication skills with a proactive delivery and customer-focused approach. Explain how

We also believe that you have:

- A BSc/MSc in Chemistry/Biotechnology/Chemical engineering
- Excellent communication skills and high work ethics.
- Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to identify and implement improvement activities.
- A track record in the performance of a range of practical skills, including non-routine complex tasks, to a high level.
- Passion for science, technology and innovation and understands the drug discovery process

Desirable for the role:

- Previous experience of working in a compound management role and operating integrated automation equipment like liquid handlers and scheduling software is a strong merit.
- Some experience with IT (SQL/Python/Java coding) is an advantage but not a requirement.
