About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Laborant/ laboratory technician with practical experience in downstream processing and protein purification.

You will be responsible for performing laboratory experiments and supporting process development activities. Your work will contribute to generating reliable data and supporting the development and characterisation of robust manufacturing processes.

Your main areas of work will include:

• Clarification and Centrifugation: Perform clarification and centrifugation activities as part of downstream processing.
• Chromatography: Perform chromatography operations using ÄKTA systems.
• Ultrafiltration: Carry out ultrafiltration activities as part of protein purification processes.
• Laboratory Operations: Operate, maintain and troubleshoot laboratory equipment to ensure reliable experimental work.
• Documentation: Record experimental work and results accurately and in accordance with applicable procedures and quality requirements.
• Collaboration: Work closely with technicians, scientists and colleagues across relevant departments to support process development activities.

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone who is technically curious, hands-on and comfortable working in a dynamic laboratory environment. You take responsibility for your work, approach tasks in a structured way and enjoy collaborating with colleagues.

Ideally, you have:

• At least three years of practical experience with protein purification.
• Experience working in a development or pilot-scale laboratory.
• Practical experience with downstream techniques, particularly clarification, centrifugation, chromatography and ultrafiltration.
• Experience with ÄKTA chromatography systems.
• An understanding of laboratory equipment, including routine maintenance and troubleshooting.
• Experience working in a cGMP environment is an advantage.
• Good communication and collaboration skills.
• Proficiency in spoken and written English.
• A positive and flexible approach, with the ability to adapt to changing priorities and new tasks.

What We Offer

At AGC Biologics, you will become part of an international organisation where collaboration, quality and continuous improvement are central to our work.

We offer:

• An opportunity to work with advanced biopharmaceutical process development.
• A collaborative and knowledgeable team environment.
• Exposure to different technologies and processes within downstream development.
• Opportunities to develop your technical skills and broaden your experience.
• Competitive employment conditions and a range of employee benefits.

How to Apply

Please submit your application and CV through the AGC Biologics career site. We do not accept applications by email.

Deadline: 29 November 2026.

Senior Downstream Laborant – Late-Stage Process Development (9 måneders barselsvikariat)

Vil du være med til at hjælpe vores kunder med at bringe avancerede biologiske produkter på markedet? Motiveres du af praktisk laboratoriearbejde, og har du lyst til at udvikle dine tekniske kompetencer? Trives du i et samarbejdende miljø, hvor du arbejder tæt sammen med forskere og andre specialister?

Så har du nu mulighed for at blive en del af vores afdeling for Late-Stage (fase III) procesudvikling som Senior Downstream Tekniker i et 9 måneders barselsvikariat.

Om afdelingen

Late-Stage Process Development spiller en central rolle i overgangen fra klinisk skala til kommerciel produktion.

Afdelingen består af tre teams af teknikere og forskere, der arbejder med blandt andet robusthedsstudier, kvalificering af nedskaleringsmodeller, proceskarakterisering og resin lifetime-studier.

Du bliver en del af et engageret team, der arbejder i vores downstream-laboratorium. Vi arbejder med både mammale og mikrobielle cellelinjer og samarbejder tæt med andre afdelinger, herunder Analytical Method Development og Manufacturing.

Om rollen

Vi søger en erfaren laborant med praktisk erfaring inden for downstream-processer og proteinoprensning.

Du får ansvar for at udføre laboratorieforsøg og understøtte procesudviklingsaktiviteter. Dit arbejde bidrager til at skabe pålidelige forsøgsdata og understøtte udviklingen og karakteriseringen af robuste produktionsprocesser.

Dine primære arbejdsområder vil være:

• Klarificering og centrifugering: Udføre klarificerings- og centrifugeringsaktiviteter som en del af downstream-processerne.
• Kromatografi: Udføre kromatografiske processer ved hjælp af ÄKTA-systemer.
• Ultrafiltrering: Udføre ultrafiltreringsaktiviteter som en del af proteinoprensningsprocesser.
• Laboratoriearbejde: Betjene, vedligeholde og fejlfinde på laboratorieudstyr for at sikre pålideligt forsøgsarbejde.
