Job Description

Keyrus Life Science is looking on a regular basis for Statistical Programmer Consultants to join our consulting team for clients (from big pharma to small biotech) projects based in Belgium. 

This job description is an example on how your job could look like. Once we have a specific project and client you will be informed and you will have of course the choice if you would like to be presented at our client.

Your potential challenges could be: 

• She/he will provide statistical consultancy for both small and large molecules, in relation with method robustness, process comparability and validation, specification determination, process optimization and control.
