We are seeking a proactive and detail-driven Quality Release Specialist to support our Quality and Warehouse teams. This role plays a key part in ensuring compliance with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and Good Distribution Practice (GDP), supporting the effective operation of the Quality Management System (QMS), and safeguarding product quality and patient safety.
You will work closely with cross-functional teams, external partners, and regulators, providing both technical and administrative quality support across a wide range of activities.
Key Responsibilities:

- Create, review, and approve quality documentation, including SOPs, work instructions, and forms, ensuring compliance with Good Documentation Practice.
- Maintain GMP and GDP standards, managing accurate paper and electronic quality records in line with company procedures and regulatory requirements.
- Investigate quality issues and customer complaints, working collaboratively to identify root causes, prioritize actions, and implement pragmatic, compliant solutions.
- Communicate quality system requirements effectively to employees, support quality-related training, and influence others to achieve quality objectives.
- Support internal, external, and regulatory audits and inspections, including preparation, participation, and completion of corrective and preventative actions (CAPAs).
- Drive continual improvement by analyzing quality data, identifying process improvement opportunities, acting as a Quality stakeholder on projects, managing key supplier relationships, escalating risks to management, and supporting the wider Quality team as needed.
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.
