Senior QA Manager | GDP | Clinical Trial Supply
📍 UK - Northwest England 🌍 Hybrid / EU travel - 2 days in office per month
I’m currently working with a specialist clinical trial supply organisation that is expanding its European operations and looking to strengthen its Quality function with a Senior QA Manager.
This is a great opportunity for someone with strong GDP experience who wants to play a key role within a growing international business, supporting its expanding presence across EU.
The Role
Working closely with the existing Quality team, you’ll act as a senior point of reference for GDP, quality systems and EU regulatory requirements, while supporting the organisation as it continues to expand its European footprint.
You’ll have the opportunity to make a genuine impact rather than simply maintaining an established QMS, working closely with colleagues across the business and providing guidance on quality and compliance matters.
Key Responsibilities
- Provide senior QA and GDP expertise across the European business
- Support and advise on EU GDP compliance and regulatory requirements
- Act as a senior sounding board for the Quality Manager and wider team
- Support audits, inspections and quality-related site visits
- Contribute to the development and continuous improvement of the QMS, SOPs and training
- Support the business as it expands its licences and operations across Europe
- Work with internal teams and external partners to maintain high standards of quality and compliance
- Help develop and strengthen the company's overall Quality function
