Are you an enthusiastic scientific leader with experience in the field of sample management, looking to develop yourself and 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 a Director of Compound Management. This leadership role, in the Compound Synthesis and Management group, provides compound processing and distribution to AstraZeneca's BioPharmaceuticals R&D portfolio of small molecule and oligonucleotide drug discovery projects. The position will be placed at our vibrant AstraZeneca R&D site in Gothenburg, Sweden.

As our new Director of Compound Management, you will develop a team of scientists delivering compounds to drug discovery projects and collaborators, improving individual talents and lead a hard-working team. You will be a member of the Discovery Sciences organization, working within an outstanding scientific environment to support drug discovery across each of AstraZeneca's Therapeutic Areas. You will have a passion for scientific delivery and innovation, developing science and technology strategy and shaping the future of the global Compound Management capability, and building trusting relationships with senior 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.

What you'll do:
Lead and empower a team of scientists to process and distribute compounds for project testing using automated, robotic and digital technologies. Alongside this, your team will collaborate with Therapeutic Area and Discovery Sciences groups to prioritize, provide experienced insight to compound quality, processing and supply chain, handle expectations and communicate progress.

Other accountabilities:

* Collaborate with Discovery Sciences fields and enabling functions to establish and lead science, technology and strategy developments.
* Develop yourself and your colleagues to improve individual and team contributions.
* Improve the external science and technology reputation of AstraZeneca compound management 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 improve your skills, abilities and contribution.

Essential in this role:

* Engaging leadership with clarity of purpose, excellent communication skills and a passion for science and technology, project delivery and personal and team development.
* Expertise in sample management, with experience of advanced and emerging automated and digital technologies, and an understanding of drug discovery and the external environment.
* Collaborative leader with the skills and behaviors to develop trusted, interdisciplinary partnerships that ensure alignment of priorities and encourage the delivery of results-oriented capability developments.
* Ph.D. in a related scientific field or a B.Sc./M.Sc. Degree (or equivalent) with a minimum of 4 years of experience in a drug discovery unit or pharmaceutical company.

An active network of external contacts is a great plus.

Why AstraZeneca?
Here, you'll be encouraged to grow and progress in your own way, building connections with the people around you and sharing in our sense of belonging. Your life at AstraZeneca is defined by you and guided by us. 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 10th October, 2021.
