Cannabis Medicinal Chemist Organic Synthesis Pharma Small Molecule Canna Jobs

CHEMISTRY - ORGANIC SYNTHESIS AND R&D (pharma, food, cannabis, chemicals)

Background and Qualifications:

We are hiring again for several different positions ranging from entry level to highly experienced and credentialed pharmaceutical professionals.

In general, candidates for any role will:

Requirements for an Organic Synthesis Chemist - have 5+ years of direct, hands-on chemistry experience in private industry, ideally a pharma or process chemistry-based company: process, isolation, separation, chromatograpy, purification, work-ups, crystallization, distillation, biosynthesis, extraction

Be safety, process, team, continuous improvement, and learning-oriented

Demonstrate curiosity and motivation in prior positions and interested in developing or enhancing their working knowledge of the labile and tricky nature of cannabinoids and complex plant oil

Have appropriate academic and private industry credentials - the level depending on the position with a minimum of a BS in Chemistry, preferably with an emphasis on organic chemistry; actual process and research chemistry experience is a key requirement; natural products and medicinal chemists with synthesis experience are also favored. E.g., prior experience at GWPharma, Noramco/Purysis, InSys, Corden Pharma, or a similar company would almost guarantee a first interview.

Substantiate their past success and ability on a multi-disciplinary team

Be able to work in a fast paced and challenging environment

These positions on PPM’s team are NOT a fit for purely analytical, or academic chemists.

Private industry experience, particularly at a small or medium size pharmaceutical company or at a CMO/CDMO, is ideal.

For early to mid-career candidates, we can promise more doing and learning, and responsibility and experience, than you will get at a large or established company.

For mid and senior career level candidates, we expect a clear self-awareness of how you will contribute will be a focus of our interview process. For example, at this point in your career, do you want to contribute as a brilliant bench chemist using your gifted synthesis skills and successes OR primarily as an inspiring manager of research teams and projects OR a scale-up and development (to 1-10kg scale initially) leader - we probably can find a place on our team as we execute our plan and build on our leadership position in the non-psychotropic cannabinoids industry, and migrate in the direction of pharma.

Working hours are Monday to Friday but based on deadlines, extra time or weekend work may be required – we are in a global race of discovery and commercialization of cannabinoid ingredients.

Fast growing company in a rapidly evolving industry creates a stimulating learning environment and allows for rapid advancement

What Makes PPM Unique in the Non-Psychotropic Cannabinoids (non-THC) Industry:

Precision Plant Molecules is led by a team of scientists, researchers and engineers with private industry (pharma, food, bulk ingredients) backgrounds representing over 100 years of chemistry, plant medicine, academic research, and materials processing experience. Our website will give you insight into the credentials of the leadership team.

PPM is committed to advancing the science and providing innovative CBD, true whole hemp plant THC-Free extracts in fully customizable cannabinoid profiles and ratios, and minor and rare cannabinoid-based ingredients (CBN, CBC, CBDA, THCV, CBDV, etc.) to leading consumer product supply chains worldwide.

Every day, every team member at PPM is inspired by the possibilities of plant-based medicine and remedies, and Mother Nature's genius.
