Job description

Laboratory Technician in QC Stability and Shelflife – Kvistgaard

Would you like to become part of an international company in rapid growth? Do you want to work in a team with advanced technologies and dedicated colleagues? Are you motivated by analytical laboratory work and quality systems within a GMP environment?

About the team

You will join QC Stability and Shelflife, a diverse and international team of scientists and laboratory technicians working closely together to support vaccine production. The team is responsible for stability and shelf‑life testing of drug substances, drug products, and related materials in support of clinical and commercial vaccines, and operates under GMP.

Due to work with living cells, shifted working hours on weekdays, as well as occasional weekend and public holiday work, may occur.

QC Stability and Shelflife is part of Bavarian Nordic’s Quality Control department, consisting of more than 90 employees.

Key responsibilities

• Working closely with our scientists in planning and setup of stability studies in LIMS, trend on stability data and assisting with deviations when they occur.


• Taking ownership of our processes to ensure that we are always in control and always have a focus on improving the ways we work together will be key to your success.


• In addition, you will be responsible for the daily handling of stability samples and studies, while maintaining an overview and plan the handling of upcoming studies to ensure timeliness in our work.

• Furthermore, continuous improvements to our processes and alignment of stability flows across QC sites will be part of the role and will be carried out in close collaboration with our scientists.


• If you are interested in furthering your planning skills and working towards LEAN certifications this is the place you want to develop.


• In the QC organization, we take pride in being there for each other and helping when there is a need and thus supporting with deviations, adhoc tasks and training of people outside of the team is to be expected.

To succeed in this role, we expect you to:

• Be educated as a laboratory technician, or similar


• Have experience with product stability and equipment qualification


• Have experience working in a GMP‑regulated environment (an advantage, but not a requirement)


• Be fluent in Danish and English, both written and spoken


• As a person, you work in a structured and proactive manner, take ownership, and maintain a positive approach, even when priorities change.


• You have a good sense of humor, strong collaboration skills, and thrive in a dynamic role that combines routine tasks with development activities.

What do we offer?

We offer a full‑time position in an engaged and competent team, where you will have the opportunity to develop both professionally and personally.

• Influence on your own tasks and the opportunity to contribute ideas and be heard


• A workplace that values collaboration, professionalism, and strong collegial relationships


• Flexible working hours, health insurance, pension scheme, and bonus opportunities


• A high‑quality canteen with a wide selection and take‑away options


• Access to a massage scheme, fitness discounts, and an active employee association


• Convenient transport options, including bus route 70E from Humlebæk Station, and EV charging stations on‑site
