Your education, experience and personal qualifications

We are looking for someone who is curious about quality and motivated to work with quality assurance in a complex supply organization. You may be a recent graduate or have a few years' experience from a quality-related function. The most important is that you want to work broadly with quality and develop your competencies within GxP, quality systems and qualification.

We imagine that you

• Have a relevant natural science, pharmaceutical, technical, health science or equivalent education.
• Have an interest in quality assurance and regulatory requirements.
• Work in a structured, systematic and quality-conscious manner.

• Thrive in cross-disciplinary collaboration and can communicate clearly and constructively.
• Can communicate in writing and verbally in Danish and English.

Experience with GDP/GMP, quality systems, deviations, CAPA, change control, qualification or validation is an advantage but not a requirement. The most important is your professional curiosity, your structured approach and your willingness to learn.
