Job description
Whether it's the unique breadth of our integrated offering that covers Injectable Aesthetics, Dermatological Skincare and Therapeutic Dermatology products; or our commitment to recognizing and rewarding people for the contribution they make - working here isn't like anywhere else.
At Galderma, we actively give our teams reasons to believe in our ambition to become the leading dermatology company in the world. With us, you have the ultimate opportunity to gain new and challenging work experiences and create an unparalleled, direct impact.
We have established a Global Capability Center in Barcelona to support Galderma's growth trajectory and our global commercial and functional teams. Located in the upscale Eixample district in the heart of the city, it offers the possibility for professional career development through exposure to global and cross-functional projects.
Job Title: Material Scientist
Location: Barcelona, Spain ; Baie-D'Urfe, Canada; Uppsala, Sweden; Boston, US; London, UK.
At Galderma, we're looking for a hands-on Material Scientist to join a small, highly technical team where expertise, curiosity, and critical thinking truly matter.
This role is ideal for someone who doesn't just study materials-but understands how they interact, behave, and impact real products in a regulated environment.
Your Impact
You will bring deep technical expertise to understand, characterize, and optimize materials, ensuring performance, compatibility, and scalability across our products and packaging systems.
What You'll Do
- Analyze and characterize materials and their chemical composition and behavior
- Understand interactions between raw materials and packaging (tubes, bottles, etc.)
- Assess how supplier differences impact material performance and product quality
- Investigate material-related issues and drive practical, science-based solutions
- Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams across Product Science, MS&T, and Quality
- Translate complex findings into clear technical documentation and presentations
What You Bring
- MSc or PhD in Material Science, Chemistry, or related field
- 3-8+ years in pharma, biotech, cosmetics, or injectable/aesthetic products
- Strong expertise in material characterization and analytical techniques
- Deep understanding of material interactions and applied science (not theoretical-only)
- Hands-on mindset with strong problem-solving and critical-thinking skills
- Excellent technical writing and presentation abilities
- applied material science in regulated industries (e.g., pharma, aesthetics, cosmetics)
Our people make a difference
At Galderma, you'll work with people who are like you. And people that are different. We value what every member of our team brings. Professionalism, collaboration, and a friendly, supportive ethos is the perfect environment for people to thrive and excel in what they do.
