ACD is a fast moving company dedicated to staying at the forefront of
chemistry software through continuous innovation. The Spectroscopy product
line is an integral part of both Chemical and Pharmaceutical analytical
laboratories worldwide. The NMR software solutions particularly have fast
become the standard solutions for enterprise deployment across chemical and
pharmaceutical companies. The entire spectroscopy solution includes modules
for MS, IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy. We are looking for an experienced member
of the NMR community to join the spectroscopy team and help innovate the
next NMR offerings for our customers.
The responsibilities will include developing a vision for future NMR
products, coaching and mentoring our technical support team through product
issues that require NMR expertise and developing compelling business cases
for new product concepts. Marketing support activities, such as public
speaking, attendance at trade shows, development of collateral and support
of the sales force are key aspects of the position. The position also
carries responsibility for focused strategic activities, such as
establishing new business development relationships and maintaining
successful collaborations with our wide network of partners.
The NMR Spectroscopy product manager will not be acting alone, but rather
with the full support of a worldwide sales and distribution network, high
performance marketing team with a global reach, and a highly talented staff
of technical support professionals. This individual will work directly with
Antony WIlliams, Vice President of Scientific Development and Marketing and
collaborate closely with product managers of our PhysChem and Chromatography
lines.
It is essential that this individual be prepared to take on significant
responsibility, work without supervision, and have the agility to rapidly
switch between scientific and business concerns. Public speaking skills are
a must as is the willingness to travel. Knowledge of small molecule
structure elucidation is a must, and additional benefit will be derived from
specific expertise in many of the following areas: mass spectrometry,
infrared spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, computational
chemistry/cheminformatics, drug discovery or chemical research, analytical
chemistry, software development and project management. Evidence of success
in a previous position of responsibility and an international reputation in
a related scientific discipline will be differentiating factors among
candidates.
Working at ACD can be characterized by two words: responsibility and
ownership. If you have the necessary skills and desire the opportunity to
take ownership and responsibility for delivering innovative software
technologies for Spectroscopy to the industry, please send a CV highlighting
your appropriate qualifications (by email in MS Word format), and the names
of up to three references to
Antony J. Williams, Ph.D.
Vice President of Scientific Development and Marketing,
Advanced Chemistry Development

References will be called, so please ensure that they are well prepared.
ACD/Spectroscopy is currently preparing many innovations for launch, and
looking for the right individual to share the excitement.
