• Lead and support GVP and GCP Safety health authority inspections and business partner audits, representing quality and safety with confidence and shaping how we prepare, respond, and continuously improve.

• Drive strategic quality management initiatives and safety process redesign that integrate quality with efficiency, using data and digital tools to lift productivity and compliance.

• Lead integration workstreams for mergers and acquisitions, bringing new products and GCP/GVP data  into our safety quality framework.

• Collaborate across a global, matrixed organisation - safety, clinical, regulatory, and quality partners - influencing and building consensus without relying on direct authority.

Who You Are

• You bring deep, current knowledge of global GVP/GCP safety regulatory requirements and pharmacovigilance quality management systems.

• You are an excellent systems thinker and process designer, able to design solutions that are both compliant and efficient.

• You have proven experience managing and supporting health authority inspections and audits.

• You lead confidently in a matrix environment, motivating and aligning networked teams without direct line management authority.
