  • Lead QA support for technology transfer to CMOs, including review and approval of protocols and risk assessments.
  • Ensure external manufacturing sites are inspection-ready and compliant.
  • Act as QA lead for external manufacturing partners, ensuring adherence to quality standards and agreements.
  • Review and approve GMP documentation including batch records, deviations, CAPAs, and validation reports.
  • Monitor CMO performance through quality metrics, audits, and governance processes.
  • Provide QA oversight for manufacture of investigational medicinal products (IMPs) supporting clinical trials.
  • Support supply of products to pharmaceutical partners for clinical studies.
  • Act as QA interface during client audits and health authority inspections.
  • Partner with global cross-functional teams to deliver NPI programs.
  • Contribute to project governance, risk management, and decision-making.
  • Review documentation ensuring it is clear, accurate, and inspection-ready.
  • Apply Quality Risk Management (QRM) principles to mitigate risks.
  • Support deviation management and CAPA implementation.
  • Drive continuous improvement of NPI and external manufacturing quality processes.
  • Conduct on-site visits to CMOs to support technology transfer and QA oversight.

Required Qualifications:
  • Bachelor’s degree in Life Sciences, Pharmacy, Chemistry, or related discipline
  • Experience in Quality Assurance within a GMP-regulated environment
  • Experience in NPI, technology transfer, validation, or external manufacturing
  • Experience working with Contract Manufacturing Organizations (CMOs)
  • Knowledge of global regulatory requirements (FDA, EMA, ICH)

Desired Characteristics:
  • Ability to work in a global, cross-functional matrix environment
  • Strong stakeholder management and influencing skills
  • Solid understanding of GMP and quality systems
  • Strong problem-solving and risk-based decision-making skills
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • High attention to detail and strong compliance mindset

Additional Information:
This role requires travel (approximately 10–25%) to support external manufacturing activities, audits, and technology transfer.
