Good morning! Between February 17 and February 21, there were 26 new positions posted on the ACS Careers database. Of these, 6 (23%) are academically connected.
Opportunities in Cambridge: E-Ink leads the way this week with a posting of 5 positions, including one for a B.S. chemist with 0-5 years experience in hydrocarbon-based ink formulations. In my opinion, this sort of thing is becoming bigger and bigger in our world; great opportunity to get in on the ground floor.
Hard hat: Arkema is searching for a plant manager; degree in engineering and a MBA are desired. "Experience in fabrication or plastic extrusion or an analogous business is required." Well, that knocks me out. Sigh.
Now here's something: The Journal of Medicinal Chemistry and ACS Medicinal Chemistry Letters are looking for a managing editor; a Ph.D. in chemistry/biology is desired. Experience in technical publishing is desired, but does not appear to be necessary. "The Managing Editor of the publication is responsible for the day-to-day management of Journal of Medicinal Chemistry and ACS Medicinal Chemistry Letters and ensures that the publications are produced on time, on budget, and with appropriate levels of quality."
In my opinion, this is a plum position for the right mid-career pharma professional. Good luck.
And here's another one!: The Michael J. Fox Foundation is looking for a Ph.D. medicinal chemist to be an associate director: "The AD, Research Programs – Medicinal Chemist will specifically focus on managing aspects the MJFF preclinical research portfolio with an emphasis on the development of therapeutically viable molecules." Further, they desire "[d]irect experience in central nervous system drug development with an understanding of critical lead molecule selection criteria and ability to understand biological aspects of drug testing."
I really think this is another great position.
Green chile stew!: Got a B.S. in chemistry? Want to be a research technologist in Albuquerque, working on aerosol analytical chemistry? GLP experience would be great.

Wow, those jobs that require dual degrees (i.e. Ph.D. / MBA) sure are tough nuts to crack. How many purple squirrels do they have in mind?
ReplyDeleteSAO: I'm guessing that it's just a B.S. in engineering, really. Dunno, though.
