AGC Biologics is looking for no less than 3 Student Assistants for our Quality Control (QC) Department! Are you eager to apply your knowledge from your studies in a relevant student job? Would you like to learn and grow in an international and modern organization that delivers biopharmaceutical development and manufacturing? In this job, you will get the chance to become a part of the biggest student group of QC, working closely with Technicians and Scientists across the QC Department and managing many different tasks. This job is known for the opportunity to become part of a very team-oriented student group and make a real impact in QC. If you are enrolled in a relevant Bachelor degree in Copenhagen/Denmark, we invite you to read more below and apply today!
Your Key Responsibilities
As a Student Assistant in our QC Department, you will be responsible for managing multiple tasks related to supporting our QC teams, scanning and archiving GMP documents, freezer inventory, and other ad hoc tasks. Furthermore, you will get great insight into the biopharmaceutical industry. The QC Department has a positive and proactive profile that is committed, professional, and with friendly collaboration. Within our QC area, we have a broad range of compliance-related responsibilities, and the 3 new Student Assistants will be assigned primarily to one of the below responsibilities, while continuously supporting with ad hoc tasks as well:

• Support the QC Microbiology department
• Support the QC Sample and service team
• Scanning and archiving GMP documents

About You
It is a requirement that you are currently enrolled in a Bachelor degree, and preferably within a relevant study like Biology, Biotechnology, Pharmacy, or similar. Further, it is an advantage if you are in the early semesters of your Bachelor degree, preferably on your 2nd semester, which will allow you to learn and develop within AGC Biologics and QC on a long-term basis.

You are expected to work 1-2 days a week, and thus balance your working hours in a fast-paced organization on top of your studies and exams. In time and when you are confident in your role, we allow for more flexibility with the expectation that you can manage it professionally. Also, it is a great advantage if you can navigate the MS Office programs.

On the more personal side, you recognize yourself as service-minded, easy-going, detail-oriented colleague with a positive, can-do attitude towards new tasks and challenges. If you are driven by the opportunity to learn the biopharmaceutical industry by doing relatively essential yet straightforward supportive tasks for our teams, this might be the right match!

Your Application
Please note that we can only hire candidates who are currently enrolled in a higher education program in Copenhagen. As part of your application, please attach documentation confirming your active enrollment. We will review applications and conduct interviews on an ongoing basis, primarily in the beginning of February, and we are aiming for a start date as soon as possible.
