Head of Quality Assurance

Head of Quality (QP)

Partnering with a global generics manufacturer and distributor, we are supporting the search for a Head of Quality or Quality Director, depending on the level of experience.

With operations spread across two continents and growth plans that continue to push heavily over the next several years, the business is continuing to increase an already established portfolio with newly developed products. Over the next three years, there are clear plans laid out to double revenue that backs up successful financial performance in the past two years.

This crucial role will be fully site based in the commercial offices, with some local visibility of warehouses and distribution. Managing a small department, it is crucial that this position is taken on in a hands-on manner, with the senior leadership willing and able to get involved in the day to day tasks.

The technical scope of the role is broad and includes operations, systems, auditing and supplier management. With the QP status, you will bring the experience and ability to support several QPs already established in the team.

This position comes with an attractive basic and a strong benefits package.

Key experience:

• Eligibility to work as a QP in UK
• Previous experience in non-sterile pharmaceutical manufacturing, ideally generics
• QA management and leadership experience
• A working style that is “can do”, hands on and puts an emphasis on coaching and mentoring
• Customer / Stakeholder management experience
• Knowledge and experience in working with virtual teams overseas
