Senior Laboratory Technician - Mammalian Process Development Downstream

Today, Lonza is a global leader in life sciences operating across three continents. While we work in science, there’s 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 that’s the kind of work we want to be part of.

For IbexTM Solutions, our unique biological manufacturing and development concept in Visp, Switzerland, we are looking for a Senior Laboratory Technician (m/f/d) in our team in Mammalian Purification Development.

  • Generate and collect high-quality data in collaboration with individual scientists and lab technicians

  • Perform the evaluation, maintenance, and qualification of lab equipment and prepare working instructions for lab equipment

  • Ensure appropriate maintenance of the workplace. Share and implement best practices for lab and equipment management

  • Provide support to training activities in the area of expertise to junior team members

Key requirements:

  • Lab technician degree or comparable qualification with several years of industry experience in the relevant area

  • Good biotechnology expertise and knowledge in the area of downstream process development (chromatography and tangential flow filtration)

  • Structured, focused, and well-organised working attitude, open-minded for new ideas and suggestions, high motivation and dynamic drive

  • Good knowledge of English and basic German is required

Every day, Lonza’s products and services have a positive impact on millions of people. For us, this is not only a great privilege, but also a great responsibility. How we achieve our business results is just as important as the achievements themselves. At Lonza, we respect and protect our people and our environment. Any success we achieve is no success at all if not achieved ethically.

People come to Lonza for the challenge and creativity of solving complex problems and developing new ideas in life sciences. In return, we offer the satisfaction that comes with improving lives all around the world. The satisfaction that comes with making a meaningful difference.
