Description
Director, Material Design unit, Oral Product Development
Are you ready for an opportunity to join Oral Product Development in a manager role with a focus on leading a team that characterize drug products, develop digital tools for characterization techniques and develop understanding of material properties?
At AstraZeneca, we put patients first and strive to meet their unmet needs worldwide. Working as an Associate Director means being entrepreneurial, thinking big and working together to make the impossible a reality. If you are swift to action, confident to lead, willing to collaborate, and curious about what science can do, then you're our kind of person.
In Pharmaceutical Technology and Development (PT&D) we are the bridge between brilliant science and innovative medicines that help millions of people. We work across the entire value chain, designing and delivering active ingredients, formulations and devices required to support new medicines – from supplies for use in early toxicology studies and clinical trials to developing the technology to ensure drugs can be scaled up for commercial manufacture.
The role
We are currently looking for a person that would like to take on the Director (Team Lead) within the Material Design unit. We believe that you have significant scientific project-based experience preferably with a materials characterisation / solid state / digital science focus and want to strengthen our team and join us in the Oral Product Development function
In this role, you will lead a team of material, solid state and data scientists based in Macclesfield. You'll be responsible for coaching and supervising these individuals, fostering a great working environment, driving value-based harmonization and standards within the field of expertise, and ensuring projects are delivered in compliance with established standards. This position requires collaboration with other OPD line managers and scientific leaders to ensure success.
