A key focus will be establishing a common, standardised CMC data foundation – harmonising how critical product, process and analytical information is represented and made available across CMC. You will turn this foundation into business value through reusable data products, Digital CMC and AI, while helping prepare CMC for a future of increasingly structured digital regulatory submissions. Your role is to turn this ambition into delivery – bringing business, science and technology together and helping new treatments move faster towards the people who need them. What you’ll bring You are a strategic project leader who is at home where business and technology meet, and who knows how to deliver in a regulated environment. ### You bring A master’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Biotechnology or a related field. 7+ years of experience leading large-scale IT, digital transformation or data programmes. Strong experience with data governance, master data management, information models and enterprise data standards. A proven track record of leading cross-functional programmes involving IT, Regulatory, Quality, Manufacturing, Product Development and Data Engineering teams. Experience managing scope, budget, timelines, resources, vendors, risks and stakeholder engagement end to end. A strong understanding of both Agile and Waterfall delivery methods. Excellent leadership, change management, communication and influencing skills – and the drive to get things done and adapt when priorities change. ### Useful, but not essential Pharmaceutical or biotech experience, particularly in CMC (Chemistry, Manufacturing & Controls), laboratory, manufacturing, quality or GxP environments. Experience with laboratory and manufacturing data environments, including LIMS, CDS, MES or similar systems. Knowledge of pharmaceutical data standards and emerging structured regulatory submission initiatives, for example ICH M4Q(R2), IDMP, Pistoia CMC Process Ontology or Allotrope. Exposure to Enterprise Architecture, AI-enabled data foundations or digital regulatory submissions, or involvement in industry organisations such as the Pistoia Alliance, BioPhorum or the Allotrope Foundation. What you’ll do You will hold end-to-end project management responsibility – from roadmap and analysis to delivery and hypercare – for strategically important initiatives in CMC Digital & IT. Lead the rollout of data harmonisation across CMC, initially with a strong focus on analytical and laboratory data, and drive the provisioning of high-quality, reusable data products, keeping delivery on track for scope, cost, resources and quality. Drive data standardisation and governance that creates a scalable, sustainable foundation for Digital CMC, AI and the transition towards increasingly structured digital regulatory submissions. Manage roadmaps actively, spotting impediments and potential delays early and acting before they slow the team down. Own stakeholder management, budgeting and communication towards the line of business, aligning business and IT around clear priorities. Coordinate product development requests between users, vendors and our IT development partner. Lead, guide and coach your project team as a servant leader, supporting an agile way of working. Who you’ll work with You will join CMC Digital & IT, which sets the digital direction for CMC Product & Process Development – including the implementation of a common data hub. CMC bridges the science of Research & Development with the execution of production, and is a community of more than 2,500 colleagues across the globe. Based in Bagsværd, you will be part of a diverse team of project managers, product owners, information modellers and data engineers. You will work closely with the CMC users and technologies that take our pilot manufacturing processes to the next level, as well as with colleagues across IT, Regulatory, Quality, Manufacturing, Product Development and Data Engineering, and with our IT development partner and vendors. Working across sites and functions, you will create clarity, speak up when things stall and keep decisions moving. You will report to Thomas Lønborg-Jensen, Director, CMC Digital & IT. What you can expect here You will take on work that matters today and for years to come: securing production efficiency and speed while building the data foundations for the next generation of digital and AI-driven operations. You will be trusted to own delivery and make your voice heard, with clear expectations and a culture that recognises results. As the programme grows, so can you. You will build new skills across the value chain – from development to production – and grow alongside colleagues on the job and through relevant learning offerings. What we offer At Novo, you will join a global healthcare company with a distinctive culture and a strong track record. We offer continuous learning, career development and benefits tailored to your life and career stage. ### Salary The annual base salary for this role ranges from DKK 742,600 to DKK 1,091,600, depending on the level of the position. Placement within the range will be assessed during the recruitment process based on the candidate’s skills, competencies, knowledge and relevant experience. ### Incentives and benefits The compensation package may include short-term and/or long-term incentives, together with other employee benefits based on position level, location, functional area and relevant market benchmarks. ### Learn more about our Reward Philosophy [https://www.novonordisk.com/careers/working-at-novo-nordisk/total-rewards-benefits.html](https://www.novonordisk.com/careers/working-at-novo-nordisk/total-rewards-benefits.html) Start now Your impact begins today.
