The Team
Reporting to the Operational Excellence Manager, the Packaging Technologist will play a dual role supporting operational excellence and packaging technical robustness within a solid oral dose pharmaceutical manufacturing environment.

-
Stakeholder Collaboration: Partner with external suppliers and internal cross-functional teams (QA, Regulatory, Engineering, Manufacturing) to ensure compliant project delivery.
-
Compliance & Quality Assurance: Ensure all packaging activities adhere strictly to EU/UK GMP guidelines, data integrity standards, and EHS (Safety) requirements.
-
Deviation & CAPA Management: Lead deviation investigations, drive effective CAPAs, and maintain ongoing regulatory inspection readiness to reduce deviation rates.
