It also requires ability to analyze and interpret complex data and to develop, optimise and troubleshoot analytical methods applying a QbD approach. The incumbent will be responsible for oversight and execution of the scientific activities of the team, which will include elements of laboratory work, scientific review and coaching, project leadership & management, professional mentoring, technology scouting and driving implementation of new technologies within the Lonza network.
