Senior QA Officer

Working in exclusive partnership with an established and expanding CDMO, we are supporting the growth of the Quality Assurance team with two brand new hires, in newly created positions.

The role of Senior QA Officer will take on diverse responsibilities across operational duties (batch review, production liaison, labelling oversight etc.) as well as wider activities relating to auditing, supplier management and QMS implementation. Critically, they will be the bridge between the QA Manager and the wider Quality Assurance team, providing experience and oversight where needed.

The Senior QA Officers must be versatile, flexible and willing to take a hands on approach across all quality related issues on a busy, fast-paced and large facility.

The site hours are 42.5hrs per week between 8am-5pm – being site based is critical given the size of the team and the operational responsibilities associated with the role.

For further information, please contact Mark Bux-Ryan.

Key experience:
Experienced in a Quality Assurance capacity covering diverse responsibilities
Pharmaceutical experience strongly preferred but alternative GMP environments could be considered
Educated to degree level from a relevant technical background
As much experience across a variety of quality responsibilities preferred – batch review, investigations, auditing, supplier management and system controls.
Appreciation of a client services business – if you have come form a similar setting that could be advantageous.
Flexible approach who can learn and adapt quickly
