Questions

Can a foreigner apply for these roles?

30 of the 30 roles here state no citizenship or security-check demand. A role that does says so in its advert, and the card marks it.

Novo Nordisk (6), Novonesis (5), Veeva Systems (4), Thermo Fisher Scientific (4), Ascendis Pharma (2).

Which employers count as biotech companies?

Companies whose main business is biotechnology, drug discovery and development, cell and gene therapy, genomics, contract research and manufacturing (CRO, CDMO) or life science tools - and every role whose title names biotech work at any employer. Their sales, finance and office roles are left out: these pages list the science, engineering, data and IT roles.

How fresh is this?

Every role is re-checked on the employer's own careers board at least every 48 hours, and the page is rebuilt every night.
