For PanTera in Mol, we are looking for a production operator / technician for OPTION VAST. After a successful period as a consultant via Randstad Professionals - Life Sciences Flanders, you can join the company on a permanent basis.
Nuclear medicine has evolved considerably over recent years with the emergence of radiotheranostics, a modality which combines targeted diagnosis and therapy with radioisotopes. It offers an important and promising alternative in the treatment of many cancers. Radiotheranostics is based on the use of radioisotopes which, when they disintegrate, emit radiation that enables cancer cells to be precisely located and/or destroyed. Among these radioisotopes, one of the most promising therapeutic is the alpha-emitting Actinium-225.
One of the main challenges to making this therapeutic solution accessible for the greatest number of patients is ensuring the availability of high-quality Actinium-225 in large quantities. It is often referred within the community as “the rarest drug on Earth”. By joining their unique expertise and resources, SCK CEN and IBA have launched the company PanTera, which aims at enabling the production of Actinium-225.
In this context, PanTera is looking for a talented and experienced production technician to support the manufacturing of Actinium-225. The successful candidate will be primarily responsible for managing production operations within a hotcell environment, involving the handling of radioactive materials and managing analytical processes to perform Quality Control measurements on the resulting products. The role is critical to our operations and requires adherence to strict procedural guidelines to ensure safety and compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) standards.
