Are you an enthusiastic scientist with experience in the field of chemistry outsourcing, looking to develop yourself and work with a great team of scientists? At AstraZeneca, we turn ideas into life changing medicines. Working here means thinking big and working together to deliver impact from our contributions that make the impossible a reality.

We have an exciting opportunity in our Discovery Sciences unit for an Associate Principal Scientist. This role, in the Compound Synthesis and Management group, provides leadership of synthetic chemistry outsourcing to AstraZeneca's BioPharmaceuticals R&D portfolio of drug discovery projects. The position will be placed at our vibrant AstraZeneca R&D site in Gothenburg, Sweden.

As our new Associate Principal Scientist, you will collaborate with chemistry teams and external companies to ensure high quality supply of compounds from strategic partnerships and fee-for-service contracts, spanning all phases of drug discovery. You will have a passion for scientific innovation and delivery, developing science strategy and shaping the future of the BioPharmaceuticals R&D chemistry capability - building trusting relationships with internal and external scientific colleagues.

We value our differences because we recognize that a team is at its most creative when it is made up of people who think differently from one another, in an environment where different views and perspectives are welcomed and valued. This is how we foster continuous innovation, constant learning and growth for us as individuals and for our patients.

What you'll do:
Lead the external sourcing of small molecules, oligonucleotides and peptides for BioPharmaceuticals R&D. Collaborate with Therapeutic Areas, Discovery Sciences, and external partners to establish priorities, provide expert insight to compound outsourcing, manage expectations and communicate progress. Other accountabilities:

* Collaborate with Therapeutic Areas, Discovery Sciences and enabling functions to establish and lead strategy developments.
* Develop yourself together with your colleagues to maximise individual and team contributions.
* Enhance the external science and technology reputation of AstraZeneca chemistry through peer-reviewed publication, external presentation of innovative results and involvement in external scientific communities.

We truly believe that everyone contributes with a unique set of competence. Your curiosity and passion for personal development combined with support from colleagues and other leaders, will ensure you maximise your skills, abilities and contribution.

Essential in this role:

* Expertise in synthetic organic chemistry, with experience of establishing and leading diverse chemistry operations with CROs.
* Collaborative science lead with the skills and behaviors to develop trusted, interdisciplinary partnerships that ensure alignment of priorities and inspire the delivery of ambitious goals.
* Engaging, scientific leadership with great communication skills and a passion for project delivery and personal development.
* Ph.D. or a B.Sc./M.Sc. Degree (or equivalent) in a related scientific discipline with a minimum of 3 years of experience in a drug discovery unit or pharmaceutical company.

An active network of external contacts and experience of developing outsourcing strategy is a great plus.

Why AstraZeneca?
Ultimately, it's more than a job. We know that our work impacts people with serious conditions, many of whom have no other alternatives. That's what drives us - the potential to impact over one billion patients worldwide.

So, what's next? If you're passionate about the possibilities of science to make a difference, welcome to join us!

We look forward to get to know you and invite you to submit your application as soon as possible, but no later than the 27th March.
