Today, Lonza is a global leader in life sciences operating across three continents. While we work in science, theres no magic formula to how we do it. Our greatest scientific solution is talented people working together, devising ideas that help businesses to help people. In exchange, we let our people own their careers. Their ideas, big and small, genuinely improve the world. And thats the kind of work we want to be part of.
The Cell Therapy Manufacturing Manager will provide a safe, controlled work environment in all areas of responsibility. Be aware of the site safety objectives and make sure they are communicated and understood by all staff. Manufacturing Manager will act as the Subject Matter Expert in the assigned area (i.e. Cell Growth, Drug Product Filling, etc.) during manufacturing operations until the manufacturing staff is fully proficient.
The Manufacturing Manager will provide a in suite oversight of the manufacturing process during critical operations (i.e. harvest, vial filling, visual inspection, etc.)
Work with Internal and Joint Project Teams to bring on and maintain customers' processes in production facility. Responsible for all tech transfers from a manufacturing standpoint. Attend the IPT and JPT meetings as the manufacturing representative for all processes during campaign preparation.
Manufacturing Manager must attend the lessons learned events for the Cell Therapy area and own actions for manufacturing. Own and manage planned deviations and change controls related to start-up of Cell Therapy.
Provide/Arrange effective trainings for manufacturing staff related to any new equipment or systems to be used in Cell Therapy.
