We’re offering a generous compensation package including an equity stake in AbCellera’s success. Our future facility will be nestled in the heart of Vancouver, Canada - we’ll support you and your family in every way we can to relocate if you haven't had the joy of living in this beautiful area!

  • You believe culture starts from individuals with shared core values and a common sense of purpose, and that it’s strengthened through a network of interactions and relationships built on mutual trust and appreciation.
  • You want to be a mentor and help others see how their work contributes to our overall goals.
  • You have a Bachelor’s degree in Education and/or Sciences (an advanced degree ideally).
  • 5 years of experience in learning and development with 8 years of experience in a GMP regulated environment, and have 5 years of leadership experience.
  • An equivalent combination of education and experience works too.

How you might spend your days

  • Developing training resources and tools with functional departments as together you identify and solve learning needs as they arise.
  • Continually crafting the best mix of learning methods to maintain and improve efficiency, effectiveness, and compliance across Quality and GMP.
