Life on the team

In a world shaped by Manufacturing 4.0, digital platforms, and evolving cyber risks, IT and OT are converging. Our mission is to ensure industrial and laboratory systems are secure, compliant, and future-ready, supporting cutting-edge biopharmaceutical science.
As part of the Digital Technology (DT) team, our SMEs play a central role in delivering Trustworthy, Safe, Secure and Compliant technology solutions across UCB’s development and manufacturing laboratories.

You’ll work within a structured Industrial Project Governance framework and contribute directly to projects that enable new therapies for patients with severe diseases.

What you'll do

1. Technical Leadership & Compliance

• Act as technical authority across IT/OT infrastructure, industrial applications, and connected lab/manufacturing equipment.
• Apply IT Industrial Governance (stage gates, design specifications, System Inventory and Assessment, validation deliverables, transition to operation).
• Ensure compliance with end-user requirements, industry regulation (GMP, GDP) and DT standards (Cyber, Data integrity, etc.) in all solution designs.
• Assess vendor documentation, software versions, Data Flow and network/port communication to ensure readiness.
• Act as the DT SME (Subject Matter Expert) during qualification activities.

2. Governance & Reporting

• Execute project lifecycle deliverables (GP0–GP4), including IT Assessments, Design Specifications (DS), Configuration Specification (CfS) and entry-into-service readiness.
• Track and report project progress, risks, and compliance metrics into PMO systems (Power BI, Qlik, or equivalent).
• Provide inputs into portfolio and batch execution planning.
• Contribute to standardisation of templates, quality frameworks, and automation of documentation.
• Actively contribute to the Knowledge Academy: create, update, and review Knowledge Base articles, training materials, and associated instructions.
• Mentor new starters (minimum 6-month ramp-up) and contribute to cyclical training.
• Share expertise to avoid single points of failure, building resilience into the team.
• Engage with IT System Owners (ITSO), Process Data Owners (PDOs), compliance, and vendor stakeholders.

4. Stakeholder Engagement

• Partner with IT Security, Infrastructure, Compliance, and Business teams to align requirements.
• Support procurement/legal in contract definition, ensuring supplier obligations reflect IT governance and compliance requirements.
• Work with requestors and demand managers to clarify scope, timelines, and regulatory impact.
• Represent SME voice in governance forums, decision boards, and SteerCos when required.

What you'll need

Technical & Regulatory Experience

• 3+ years working across IT & OT in regulated (ideally pharmaceutical) environments.
• Strong grasp of IT/OT infrastructure, automation systems, and their integration into enterprise IT.
• Familiarity with IT security controls, identity/access management, and regulatory compliance in GMP/GxP contexts.
• Experience in system lifecycle management (commissioning, updates, obsolescence, retirement).
• Exposure to vendor management, documentation review, and qualification activities.

Capabilities & Behaviours

• Structured, analytical thinker: able to bring order and clarity in complex projects.
• Skilled communicator: able to influence suppliers, engage stakeholders, and explain technical decisions in business terms.
• Strong collaborator: thrives in cross-functional teams, balancing independence with teamwork.
• Quality-driven and resilient: committed to “first-time-right” deliverables and able to handle workload peaks.
