Summary
An intelligent, hard-working Production Operative with GMP experience is required to join a Pharmaceutical company in Worthing and learn all about the manufacturing of fascinating new drug products. This is NOT a dull line operator job ¡V it requires a proactive nature, precision, pride in your work and the intelligence to work in several different areas.

The Company
A pioneering Europe-based Pharmaceutical company specialising in the treatment and prevention of allergies. Their unique focus is on the vaccination and prevention of conditions such as hay fever and asthma, and their groundbreaking work has recently been in the UK press.

The Role
You will be based in the busy Production area, where a variety of vaccines and other allergy products are manufactured. You must have good hygiene standards as all of the production operates strong GMP and H&S policies. Some of the areas are sterile, and once you have been with the company long enough and prove yourself 100% trustworthy you will be able to work in the sterile facilities.

You will spend most of the day on your feet and there will be some lifting involved. Your role will involve manually measuring various substances, using state-of-the art machinery (autoclaves, balances etc) and ensuring that all work in the Production area meets high standards. You will be working in a friendly, welcoming team of people who are genuinely passionate about what the company is doing.

Working hours are 8am - 4pm, Monday ¡V Friday with room for possible overtime during busy periods.

The company will invest a lot of resources in your ongoing training, so they are looking for someone with staying power. Job-hoppers need not apply.

Experience
The successful candidate will have some experience of working in a GMP (or similar) environment, preferably from a Pharmaceutical company (although Food, Cosmetics and FMCG production will be good too). You will need to be eager to learn new things ¡V this is not a basic operation role but something that requires strong understanding of scientific principles and the ability to pick up some quite complex training.

You will need excellent communication and teamworking skills, with the ability to handle your own workload and organise your own time. Strong competency in English and Maths is essential, and a scientific background would be a considerable advantage (e.g. A-Levels).
