We value practical problem solvers who use data, communicate clearly, and build trusted relationships. This role offers technical growth, visible impact and the chance to help unite science, technology and talent to get ahead of disease together.
Responsibilities
- Provide real‑time technical support to routine manufacturing, packing and assembly operations, helping teams restore normal running safely and compliantly.
- Monitor process, performance, compliance, work order and loss data to identify trends, recurring issues, emerging risks and reliability improvement opportunities.
- Support line and area readiness by completing technical checks and confirming approved process parameters, set‑ups and standard work are followed.
- Support deviations, investigations and CAPAs through fact‑finding, data collation, root‑cause analysis, effectiveness follow‑up and escalation where required.
- Maintain an audit‑ready state by completing governance checks, closing actions, supporting inspection preparation and keeping local procedures, records and operational content current.
- Coach operators, workplace trainers and first‑line leaders on technical standards, procedural execution, problem solving and GMP, EHS and data integrity requirements.
Basic Qualification
- Strong practical experience in manufacturing, packaging or process technology in a regulated environment.
- Hands‑on experience running trials, validations or qualifications in a production or packaging setting.
- Practical knowledge of process technologies, materials and cleaning practices relevant to manufacturing platforms.
- Strong problem‑solving using data, including root‑cause analysis and corrective action implementation.
- Familiarity with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and regulatory expectations.
- Experience creating technical documentation such as component drawings, specifications and bills of material.
Preferred Qualification
- Experience in pharmaceutical or biotech manufacturing, packaging or product transfers.
- Experience with Design of Experiments (DoE), statistical analysis or quality‑by‑design approaches.
- Track record of delivering small projects or improvement workstreams using lean or structured problem‑solving.
- Experience collaborating across a matrix organisation and with external suppliers.
