GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals (GSK Biologicals), the vaccine division of the GSK Group, is a global vaccine research, development and production company, at the cutting edge of innovation in the fight against the most deadly infections and diseases. Headquartered in Belgium, GSK Biologicals employs over 11,000 people worldwide, of which 7,000 in its three Belgian sites: Rixensart, Wavre and Gembloux. GSK Biologicals’ global production network is in the midst of becoming the largest in the entire vaccines industry; 15 production sites strategically positioned around the world manufacture, formulate, fill, pack, check and deliver over a billion doses of about 30 different vaccines.

Once our pioneering treatments have been developed, they are manufactured to the highest standards and distributed across the regions that need them most. Accomplishing this as efficiently and quickly as possible can quite literally be a matter of life and death. So it's no wonder that more than 70% of our talented workforce is based within Global Industrial Operations - the essential business unit that manufactures and manages the entire vaccine supply process, from customer order to product dispatch on a global scale.
As the name suggests, it operates in a multi-national context across 15 sites around the world, working closely in tandem with colleagues from a variety of disciplines and professions.
The department itself is divided into operating units that focus on various aspects of the manufacturing and supply process. These include Supply Chain Management, Global Quality Assurance, Technical Services, and Industrialisation, which oversees the transfer of production from R&D levels to a commercial scale.
Applicants should have a scientific or engineering university degree, along with some pharma or bio-pharma industry experience. In return, you'll have the opportunity to use your strong organisational skills in a challenging and complex project-driven environment.
