Who you are
You’re someone who wants to influence your own development. You’re looking for a company where you have
the opportunity to pursue your interests across functions and geographies, and where a job title is not considered
the final definition of who you are, but the starting point.
In this position (limited for three years, but renewable) you will join a team devoted to the production and purification
of antibodies and other recombinant proteins. You will be responsible for expressing and purifying antibodies
and proteins for internal research projects, as well as for external research collaborations. For this demanding
position in a dynamic environment, we are looking for a Research Associate who holds a Bachelor or equivalent
degree or a Lab technician in Biochemistry/Biotechnology. Hands-on experience with mammalian cell
culture and purification techniques is required. Familiarity with Protein analysis (SDS-PAGE, Western Blot and
ELISA) is advantageous. Fluency in English is a must, German would be an asset. You have a high degree of selfmotivation,
flexibility and are able to independently conduct experiments. You are also inquisitive and strive for
continuous process improvement. In addition you interact effectively with a truly multinational team of scientists.
If you are interested in working in an environment that is challenging and rewarding, we’re interested in hearing
from you!
