I started my adventure in the Manufacturing Department, where I learned the technology of MabionCD20 production from scratch. I was a shift leader, participated in process scaling and technology transfer to the unit in Konstantynów Łódzki.

I changed departments in 2017 and have since been part of the Quality Assurance Team, where, in addition to GxP-related tasks, I have the opportunity to work on registration documentation and clinical trials, and recently also on the vaccine development project. Nothing what is new is strange to me ;).

I started working at Mabion in late 2018 in what was then known as the Registration and Clinical Trials Department. From the very beginning, I was allowed to sail into wide waters – I participated in the registration process of the company’s flagship product (MabionCD20), in the European Medicines Agency inspection, and then in the planning of subsequent clinical trials and new projects.

As a Project Leader I was responsible for the development of the plan for the clinical trial of MabionCD20 called MabionCD20-003RA (MABRIDGE), which is planned to commence in several dozen centers in Europe and Asia. Thanks to this opportunity, I could learn the secrets of clinical trials in a record time, have a close look at the mechanisms of drug registration in Europe and the USA, and, perhaps most importantly, gain invaluable experience in working for a growing pharmaceutical company.

Last year, the knowledge and experience gained allowed me to transfer to the Regulatory Affairs Department, which acts as a link between the company, regulatory authorities and other external entities. Currently, I also hold the position of Responsible Person for Pharmacovigilance, so I ensure proper drug safety oversight and the health of patients participating in our trials.

Position:

Registration Documentation Specialist, Pharmacovigilance Specialist (Responsible Person)

At Mabion since:

Since 2018.

I value Mabion for:

The opportunity to continually grow and improve my professional skills and the hardworking and intelligent people who make up this company.

I joined Mabion when it had at most 50 employees. There was no team in the Company’s structures which would deal strictly with the administrative area. I was the Operations Coordinator and dealt with a wide range of topics related to the company’s operations – from Mabion’s disclosure obligations to the WSE to EU projects, HR topics and cooperation with universities.

It was a great pleasure for me to build up the Administration Department, serving first as department head and then as director. Currently there are 23 people working in the department, and their area of competence covers a wide range of specializations. The department consists of: the legal team, the HR and OHS team, the EU projects team, the purchasing team, the management office and the environmental team. They are fantastic specialists who participate in many interdisciplinary projects on a daily basis and are proof that Mabion provides interesting development paths also for people without roots in biotechnology.

Position:

Director of the Administration Department

At Mabion since:

Since 2015.

I value Mabion for:

…for the fact that every day is different and full of challenges which gives me a chance to grow and improve. And above all, I value the people who make up Mabion. Together we develop a strategy for projects and implement them; we overcome difficulties and achieve successes and, above all, we create a unique atmosphere and are simply friends.

I started my adventure with Mabion as a Production Technician in the Manufacturing Department. Within a year, I managed to get promoted twice: first to the position of Bioprocess Technician and then to Process Biotechnologist – and so far no one else has managed to repeat it. In mid-2017, I officially became a Shift Leader, and six months later I took on the role of Process Engineer.

In early 2021, I completed my application for Master of Manufacturing, and I still hold that position today.

In the Manufacturing Department, I have had the opportunity to work on all stages of the manufacturing process, but the closest to my heart has and always will be cell culture. Currently I am mainly responsible for supervising the proper course of the manufacturing process as well as approval and verification of related documentation. I am also responsible for the areas related to training, deviations and CAPA in the Manufacturing Department. Additionally, together with Anna Dąbrowska, I recruit new employees to join our (best) team.

Position:

Production Master

My story with Mabion began in 2019, when I decided to change something in my life. I turned my world upside down and from Warsaw I came all the way to Konstantynów Łódzki, where I still live today.

In my everyday work I am associated with the Quality Control Department, where I have been acting as a Shift Leader since the very beginning. Initially I joined the microbiological group, where I met wonderful people, thanks to whom I could learn new methods connected with the production of sterile medicinal products. In May 2021, I took up a challenge and decided to make another change: to become a Shift Leader in the Biological and Physicochemical team, where I coordinate the current work of the team and learn new methods.

Remember: better late than never. Take your chance. The Mabion team and I are waiting for you.
