The BCOE Associate Coordinator will coordinate local BCOE inventories in a performant and cost-efficient way, in compliance with global BCOE governance and local regulations and in close collaboration with local functions and external storage provider.  This is achieved through coordination with GI Sample Management to obtain information on backlog of physical inventory in freezers and cold rooms, extraction of metadata from agreements or databases (i.e. LIMS) and communication with Azenta for off site storage and data wrangling on the input of samples to the BSM program.

Approximately 50% of time is expected to dedicate to BCOE-related activities, remainder of time will be dedicated to support the Biosamples Lead(s) in coordination of logistical operations, including study startup activities, human biological sample label creation, sample management activities, testing, purchasing, and import of related reagents to support clinical testing.

The successful applicant will demonstrate applicable competencies and behaviours including strategic thinking, commitment to partners, and transversal cooperation across multiple functions both internally to Sanofi and externally.
