At AstraZeneca we work together across global boundaries to make an impact and find answers to challenges. We do this with the upmost integrity even in the most difficult situations because we are committed to doing the right thing. We continuously forge partnerships that help pursue world-class medicines in new ways, combining our people's exceptional skills with those of people from all over the globe.

Pharmaceutical Technology and Development (PT&D) is the bridge that turns brilliant science into actual medicines that help millions of people. We work across the entire value chain, designing and delivering active ingredients, formulations and devices for new medicines and providing expert technical support to all AZ's commercial drug substances and products to ensure we successfully supply medicines to patients.

We are now looking to hire a Senior Project Leader or Project Leader, depending on your background, to join our Chemistry Manufacturing and Controls (CMC) Team within PT&D.

As a Senior CMC Project Leader/CMC Project Leader you are accountable for the development of robust CMC project strategies and efficient delivery of one or several R&D development projects (typically from Ph2b) and/or commercial products where the focus is maximizing the Brand Value.

The role involves a diverse range of problems/opportunities requiring complex judgements and solutions based on highly developed levels of conceptual thought and strategic vision and analysis.
