I’m currently working with a leading pharmaceutical organisation that is seeking a Microbiologist to join their Quality team in Derby on an initial 6-month fixed-term contract.

The Role

This position will primarily focus on reviewing quality data to ensure compliance with GMP and internal standards. While largely office-based, there may be opportunities to support hands-on microbiological laboratory work, depending on project needs.

• Review and interpret microbiological data
• Support investigations into deviations and CAPAs
• Maintain documentation in line with cGMP and data integrity standards
• Contribute to internal audits and quality improvement initiatives

What We’re Looking For

• A degree in Microbiology or a related scientific discipline
• Experience working in a GMP-regulated environment
• Strong attention to detail and documentation skills
• Ability to work collaboratively within a quality-driven team
• Excellent communication and problem-solving abilities

Why Apply?

• Gain exposure to a well-established pharmaceutical organisation
• Work within a supportive and knowledgeable QA team
• Immediate start opportunity

If you’re available immediately or looking for a short-term opportunity to make an impact, I’d love to hear from you.
