At TTP, we’re driven by a mission to transform the future of life science through technological innovation.

The complexity of our project work means an excellent academic record with a minimum 2.1 degree in a relevant scientific or engineering discipline is required.

In-depth knowledge related to specifying Advanced Therapies manufacturing processes and equipment, pharmaceutical process development, and/or GMP process qualification.
