Context
Nuclear medicine has evolved significantly in recent years with the emergence of radiotheranostics, a modality combining targeted diagnosis and therapy using radio-isotopes. This approach offers a promising alternative in the treatment of various cancers. Radiotheranostics utilizes radio-isotopes that, upon decay, emit radiation to precisely locate and/or destroy cancer cells. Among these, Actinium-225, an alpha-emitting isotope, is one of the most promising for therapeutic applications.
A key challenge in making this therapeutic solution accessible to more patients is ensuring the availability of high-quality Actinium-225 in large quantities, often referred to as the rarest drug on Earth. PanTera, established as a joint venture between SCK CEN and IBA, leverages their unique expertise and resources to enable the production of Actinium-225.
As PanTera grows, our need for robust human resources management increases. We are a dynamic start-up with a strong entrepreneurial culture, continuously developing processes to enhance efficiency. To support our growth, we are seeking a skilled and proactive HR Manager to lead our human resources initiatives.
This role focuses on managing all HR-related activities, involves close collaboration with the leadership team, and reports to the Director of Finance and Administration. We seek a candidate with a hands-on mentality, excellent organizational skills, and a passion for fostering a positive and inclusive workplace. Proactivity, flexibility, and teamwork are critical for success in our small, dynamic team. The ideal candidate will be adaptable and open to taking on tasks beyond those outlined in this description.
