Radiopharmaceutical experience is desirable.

KEY DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:

1. Support the maintenance and improvement of the pharmaceutical quality system, reviewing procedures and controlled documentation to help keep working practices clear, consistent and aligned with good manufacturing practice.

2. Review and progress deviations, investigations, corrective and preventive actions and change controls. You will apply sound judgement to assess risk, challenge root-cause findings and support effective, proportionate resolutions.
