A few of this week's C&EN Jobs posting:
Chicago, IL: AbbVie is looking for a Ph.D. with 0-5 years or M.S. with 8 years experience for an analytical chemistry position for work on API process development.
Chattanooga, TN: Chattem Chemicals is searching for a M.S. chemist for scale-up work; 0-2 years experience desired, with cGMP experience? Yeah, that's gonna happen.
Watertown, MA: Enanta Pharmaceuticals is looking for a Ph.D. bioanalytical chemist.
Dhahran, Saudi Arabia: I see Saudi Aramco has posted 3 petroleum industry positions.
"Silicon Valley, CA": DigiLens is a company searching for a development chemist who has "[d]irect, hands-on experience with organic materials including polymers or liquid crystals."
Ennis, TX: GAF is looking for an experienced chemist to work on PVC research; B.S. w/10 years, M.S. w/5 years or Ph.D. w/2 years experience desired.
I'm impressed by the purple squirrel position at Chattem. They might be able to find someone, but it'd probably have to be from contract research. I'm imagining someone who's ex-AMRI out of AMRI's chemical development or small-scale GMP group or a similar company. (Full disclosure: I'm actually ex-AMRI and can think of a couple people who might be that sort of purple squirrel for Chattem, but an MS with only 2 years of experience who's also dealt with cGMP has got to be rare.)
