The Role

Genmab is looking for a dedicated GMP Technician to join our new clinical secondary packaging and labelling facility in Ballerup, which is currently under establishment. In this role, you will be part of a small, agile team driving the fast start-up of our clinical trials, with a particular focus on first-in-human (FIH) and early-phase clinical trials, ensuring that high-quality investigational medicinal products reach patients with cancer and other serious diseases on time and in full.

As Genmab’s first in-house GMP production capability for secondary packaging and labelling, the position offers a unique opportunity to help shape our ways of working from the very beginning. You will be responsible for secondary packaging, labelling, and related GMP activities in a small-scale, manual set-up where your contribution has a direct impact on timelines and quality.

The role combines hands-on production work with ownership of equipment maintenance, documentation, and continuous improvement across end-to-end processes related to the production and facility. The role is based at our Ballerup site and, due to the nature of GMP operations, requires on-site presence.

The position reports to the Associate Director, Team Lead, Global Clinical Drug Supply, based in Ballerup.

• Contribute to or act as Vendor Relationship Manager for selected supplier(s)

Qualifications

• Hands-on, technical mindset with the ability to operate and maintain equipment and quickly learn new systems.

• Experience with label printing systems, cold storage equipment and/or clinical trial materials is an advantage

Who You Are

You thrive in a small, highly committed team where collaboration, flexibility, and a can-do attitude are essential. You are structured and reliable, and you naturally take ownership of your tasks and area of responsibility from start to finish. You are motivated by working close to the process and by knowing that your contribution helps ensure that patients receive the right treatment at the right time.

You are comfortable taking the lead within your operational area - for example on deviations, documentation, and practical improvements - while still working closely with colleagues and stakeholders. You are excited about working in a greenfield setting, where not everything is in place yet and where you can help build ways of working, routines, and standards from the ground up. You are comfortable in a dynamic, fast-paced setting where priorities can change, and you are willing to go the extra mile to support critical timelines for clinical trials.

The Team

You will join a team under establishment at our new packaging and labelling facility in Ballerup, with the ambition to be recognized as a highly skilled and collaborative group. The team will work closely with colleagues in Global Clinical Drug Supply Manufacturing in Valby and Princeton, as well as across Genmab’s global geographies. Together, you will be dedicated to ensuring timely, high-quality packaging and labelling of clinical trial supplies and to continuously improving our processes in line with Genmab’s ambition to transform the lives of patients with cancer and other serious diseases.
