Do you want to be involved in mode-of-action studies on enzymes and microorganisms as part of the discovery efforts aiming at improving human or animal health? Do you want to lead, motivate and develop a team of 15 highly skilled specialists? Then this is a fantastic opportunity to join our function as Department Manager of Toxicology & Immunology.

The Product Safety function (approx. 35 scientists and lab associates) provides safety assessments and guidance for all Novozymes’ pipeline projects and existing products, facilitating registration and legal sales of Novozymes’ products globally. Using our expertise within in vitro cell-based and in vivo techniques, Toxicology & Immunology furthermore provide scientific support to early development projects on enzymes and/or microorganisms for various applications, e.g. within human and animal health.
