Are you a passionate and experienced scientist, eager to join a company in the forefront of sample management technologies? Would you like to contribute to the continuous improvement of life changing projects? Perfect, we have a new challenge for you!

We are looking for a motivated and engaged team member to work as a Senior Scientist in our Compound Management team at our vibrant R&D site at AstraZeneca in Gothenburg, Sweden.

As a Senior Scientist in the Compound Management department you will be responsible for the storage and timely supply of chemical compounds to AstraZeneca's drug discovery projects. Highly automated liquid handling systems will be employed to supply molecules to AstraZeneca scientists and partner organisations. You will be a part of the Discovery Sciences organisation, operating within a first-class scientific environment to support drug discovery across each of AstraZeneca's Therapeutic Areas.

Thrive in a place where the brightest and most curious minds seamlessly come together in our inclusive environment.

What you will do:
In this position, you will get the opportunity to work in a dynamic and enthusiastic environment, whilst delivering critical support to drug discovery projects. You are focused on supporting projects by providing compounds in the requested format - assay ready plates, serially diluted mother plates, formulations and solids. You will be involved in all phases of the projects and support a broad range of chemical modalities. Bringing in new capabilities and build new processes are also core activities, performed in collaboration with cross functional drug discovery projects.

You are expected to act upon day-to-day issues that occur whilst processing samples and ensure business continuity and you will run Compound Management development projects to ensure continuous improvement within the local team and the global department. Furthermore, you will work with the following typical tasks:

* Designing, performing and interpreting experiments independently to investigate process improvements and evaluate new technologies.
* Rapidly addressing customer queries with regards to Compound Management orders, software, processes and capabilities.
* Achieving personal scientific visibility through project contributions, internal presentations and publications.

We work collaboratively within our Compound Management team, to provide support within agreed service levels and with a strong quality and customer focus. We strive hard to understand what fits customer needs and how to add value through our experience and capabilities. To maintain this position, we actively seek ways to improve our process and exploit new technologies.

Essential in the role:
Compound Management is a highly collaborative group, working to tight delivery schedules - so the ability to be comfortable working at a fast, goal-oriented pace, with a team focused attitude is essential to be successful in the role. We also believe you have:

* A BSc/MSc in a scientific discipline (life sciences, biotechnology/Chemistry), with some relevant experience.
* Expertise with analytical balances and automated liquid handlers.
* Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to identify and implement improvement activities (experience in workflow automation and SQL/Java coding is beneficial).
* A track record in the performance of a range of practical skills, including non-routine complex tasks, to a high level.

We also believe that our new colleague share our passion for science, technology and innovation. Is a strong team player with a high work ethic that enjoys working in a collaborative setting. You have good social and communication skills with a proactive delivery- and costumer focused approach. Previous experience of working in a compound management role and operating integrated automation equipment and scheduling software is highly beneficial.

Why AstraZeneca?
Here we are committed to making a difference. We have built our business around our passion for science. Now we are fusing data and technology with the latest scientific innovations to achieve the next wave of breakthroughs.

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 12th of August, 2022.
