As Process Scientists and Engineers, our work is the last step in the value chain before our treatments reach the patient. For this reason, our mission to drive change for patients living with diabetes and other serious chronic diseases is at the heart of everything we do – we are constantly striving to improve our processes, enabling us to transform lives around the world.

We work in an inspiring environment, focused on continuous improvement and delivering the highest quality to patients. We push boundaries to ensure we are always producing at our best. Working in a highly regulated environment, this can sometimes be a challenge, but it motivates us to think out of the box – knowing that our colleagues and managers will support us.

However, continuous improvement is not only our philosophy when it comes to our production processes. It is also our stance on people's development. Here you will have endless opportunities for personal and professional development across the business, ensuring that your ambition is always supported, and you are always able to reach your potential.

By applying to the Process Engineer & Scientist Talent Pipeline, you will be considered as a potential match for all Process Engineer and Scientist positions across Production and Development, in the locations where you have shown interest. We will match your profile continuously against all suitable positions to ensure you do not miss out on a life-changing career.

When an opportunity arises, we will reach out, tell you about the position and invite you for an interview with a Hiring Manager. You will only be contacted if we find a relevant position that matches your profile. When you apply for the pipeline position, you will remain part of the Talent Pipeline for up to 3 months, unless you inform us that you wish to withdraw.

Due to GDPR we close the pipelines after 3 months and send out an e-mail notification to all active candidates when they are closed, with a link to where you can re-apply to our new Process Engineer & Scientist Pipelines.

We are looking for Process Engineers & Scientists in many locations: Kalundborg, Bagsværd, Gentofte, Hillerød, Søborg, Måløv, Kirke Værløse and Køge. Our Pipeline job advertisements will be posted for the Greater Copenhagen Area (including Hillerød and Køge) and for Kalundborg; as we all as having a distinction between a Pipeline for junior Engineers, experienced Engineers and an additional pipeline for Maskinmester/Marine Engineers.

We look forward to receiving your application, and to having the opportunity to provide a solid match for open positions.

“It was an easy and good experience, even though the interviews were a little bit stressful, but I still highly recommend the others to apply for it. It was my first time to participate in such a process, but it helped me a lot and I enjoyed it.”

The Process Engineer & Scientist Pipelines are not open for applications until the 1^st of January 2025. If you are interested in applying to our individually posted positions, please click here to go to our Career Site or sign up for our job agent.

Process Engineers & Scientists are part of the entire manufacturing process, and depending on your specialisation area, you can be part of the early stages of aseptic production, fermentation and sterilisation, or the packaging and shipping of our finished products to our patients.

To be a successful Process Engineer or Process Scientist, you should have a relevant education at B.Sc., M.Sc., or PhD level, probably within Engineering, Pharmacy, or Natural Sciences.

Beyond this, you should be an action-oriented person with the curiosity to learn and, ultimately, improve upon our processes. Working in a highly regulated environment, you need to be a born problem solver who thrives in a fast-paced and dynamic environment. You will collaborate with different stakeholders, ranging from our Operators and Quality Assurance Professionals to Senior Management. Besides being technically oriented, you also need to enjoy collaborating and communicating with colleagues from different backgrounds.

“Novo Nordisk's pipeline recruitment process was very beneficial in my job search. I was matched with relevant and exciting positions that suited my CV well. The entire process was easy to join, and I felt I got a lot out of the time I invested. I also appreciated the ability to specify preferred locations, which made finding suitable positions much simpler.”

At Novo Nordisk Product Supply, we bring together our different mindsets and expertise from across the globe, making anything possible.

We work together, even when we are not in the same room, across oceans and borders and communication lines – where brilliant things happen when we connect.

From an observation on the shop floor or a single line of code. From new technologies to the can-do spirit we have always had, we are revolutionising the way we carry out production, while driving change to help more patients live better lives.

But everything we accomplish has to start somewhere. It starts with a willingness to bet on our ideas, take bold action and push for innovations and solutions.

At Novo Nordisk, we encourage a culture, where we talk openly about our challenges in order to learn from them and grow stronger.

Together we make sure to create a strong professional community, where we celebrate both successes and learning opportunities.

At Novo Nordisk Product Supply, It all starts with courage.

As a Process Engineer you have three possible development tracks:

Specialist
Leadership
Project Management

In dialogue with your manager, you will make a dynamic development plan that aligns with your professional goals and your team’s needs.

No, we hire the best candidates for the role regardless of their background.

Our pipelines are open for 3 months at a time; this is to stay GDPR compliant, but also to make sure our candidates are still interested and available. Every 3 months we close our pipeline, and you will be invited to apply for the new pipeline, and we will keep your profile for up to 6 months.

We screen every single applicant, but only those with relevant academic backgrounds and experience are considered for a position, and we will invite you for an interview only once we have a hiring manager who has confirmed interest in your profile. If your profile is not a good match for the Process Engineering & Scientists or Maskinmester Pipelines, you will receive a rejection.
