The Company
Eisai is a leading research-based pharmaceutical organisation with an extensive portfolio across the Oncology, Neurology, and Pain therapy areas.

The role is responsible for:
- Ensuring effective management of a team of technical specialists.
- Ensuring QC Equipment and Electronic Systems are managed effectively to ensure their use in the manufacture, packaging, and testing of marketed drug products comply with department Standard Operating Procedures, current GMP, Data Integrity guidelines, and Eisai Corporate expectations.
- Creating and maintaining a five-year equipment replacement plan to ensure the QC laboratory is equipped with current equipment and software that meet the testing requirements.
- Ensuring effective management of New Product Introduction and Method Transfer.
- Ensuring effective management of QC compliance activities (e.g. global changes and pharmacopeia compliance).
- Ensuring effective management of the education and training of QC team members in the use of specialist equipment and software.
- Reviewing and approving any associated SOPs and quality policies, as required.

Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
