We collaborate actively with our discovery and development partners' functions providing cutting-edge technologies and scientific excellence to transform molecules into future medicines. We are CMC experts and build our strength on a broad diversity of technical expertise in chemistry, formulation design, material science and analytical chemistry, delivering and innovating in the space of small molecules, peptides and nucleic acid-based medicines.

Role Mission

We are offering an outstanding opportunity as Senior/Principal Scientist in the Drug Substance team dedicated to develop and optimize organic synthesis, scale up and supply of small molecules. In this role, you will be part of a team enabling early toxicological and clinical studies by developing synthetic routes for drug substances in a fast paced environment.

Your Impact
  • You develop synthetic routes suitable for early toxicological and clinical supplies in a fast paced environment. You are accountable for the scientific and technical excellence of the work performed.
  • You represent pCMC in global research project teams. As pCMC project leader, you orchestrate all preclinical CMC activities (internal and external) and ensure an efficient project transfer to our Pharma Technical Development colleagues.
  • You participate in the assessment of business development opportunities.
  • You enhance scientific excellence by identifying relevant portfolio and industry trends and by staying abreast of recent advances on small molecules chemistry, process R&D and supply. You build internal and external relationships to maintain a strategic understanding of the process R&D technology environment and recommend priorities.
Your Profile
  • You have a PhD in synthetic organic chemistry and more than 5 years of relevant professional experience in chemical process R&D that allows you to expertly lead chemical process R&D efforts.
  • You possess a sound understanding of the drug development process and an excellent knowledge of key scientific, technical and safety aspects used to synthesize new small molecule drug candidates in a kilo laboratory or pilot plant environment.
  • You have excellent retrosynthesis skills and know how to apply them to design and optimize synthetic routes. You enjoy working in teams and in the lab.
  • You are resourceful and creative in problem solving and like working in a collaborative and inclusive manner. You thrive in a dynamic environment which gives you full accountability for your own contributions, development and decisions.
  • You have a keen interest in continuously building a deep understanding of the organization and a personal network, and the ability to connect to colleagues in various parts of the organization to reach shared goals.
