Job description

Join Rephine Barcelona: Leading Life Sciences Quality Worldwide

At Rephine, we set the standard for quality assurance and GxP compliance in the Life Sciences industry. With offices in Barcelona, the UK, India and China, we support the Pharmaceutical, Biotech, and Medical Device supply chains globally.

Who We're Looking For

Are you passionate about building your career in CSV consulting within the Pharma and Life Sciences sector? Do you thrive in dynamic environments, eager to grow technically, take ownership of your work and contribute to real impact? If you're excited by the challenge of validating computerised systems in a global consultancy with the highest quality standards, we want you as our next CSV Consultant (L3) in Barcelona.

Your Role

As an L3 CSV Consultant, you will be an active contributor to validation projects, working alongside experienced consultants and under the guidance of senior team members. You will develop your expertise across a wide range of GxP computerised systems while building the autonomy and technical depth that defines a Rephine consultant.

Key Responsibilities

CSV Project Execution

• Contribute to the validation of computerised systems (ERP, LIMS, eQMS, eDMS, SCADA, laboratory systems) in GxP-regulated pharmaceutical environments.
• Prepare and review validation documentation including VMPs, URS, IQ/OQ/PQ protocols, traceability matrices and validation reports.
• Ensure compliance with EU GMP Annex 11, FDA 21 CFR Part 11, GAMP 5 and Data Integrity guidelines.

Quality & Compliance

• Support deviation management, change controls and CAPA activities.
• Contribute to supplier audits and compliance assessments under senior supervision.
• Maintain audit-ready documentation at all times.

Client & Team Collaboration

• Work closely with cross-functional client teams (QA, IT, business owners) to gather requirements and deliver validation activities on schedule.
• Participate in client meetings and on-site visits as part of project delivery.
• Collaborate with your project team and Area Manager to ensure quality and timely delivery.

Learning & Development

• Actively develop your knowledge of GxP regulations, validation methodologies and pharma systems.
• Participate in Rephine's internal training programme and knowledge-sharing sessions.
• Progress towards greater autonomy and responsibility as your expertise grows.

Why This Role Could Excite You

• Build deep CSV expertise across a wide range of systems and pharma clients — in two to three years at Rephine you'll learn what would take five years in a single company.
• Work within a team led by a CSV Director with 25 years of experience — real mentorship from the best in the field.
• Be part of a growing global consultancy where your contributions are visible and valued from day one.
• Grow towards L2 and beyond with a clear, structured career path.

What You Bring

• A Bachelor's degree in Chemistry, Engineering, Pharmacy, Biotechnology or a related Life Sciences field.
• Some experience in the pharmaceutical industry and GxP-regulated environments — whether in CSV, QA, or a related technical role.
• Familiarity with validation documentation (VMP, URS, IQ/OQ/PQ) and regulatory frameworks (GAMP 5, Annex 11, 21 CFR Part 11) — applied or theoretical.
• Ability to manage your own workload across multiple tasks and projects.
• Fluency in Spanish and English, with strong written communication skills.
• Valid driver's license and willingness to travel to client sites when required.

Is This Role for You?

Ask yourself:

• Are you ready to commit to a consulting career and everything that comes with it — variety, pace, client interaction and continuous learning?
• Do you take ownership of your work and hold yourself to a high quality standard?
• Are you eager to grow technically and build a name for yourself in the CSV world?
• Can you adapt quickly across different clients, systems and regulatory environments?

If yes — Rephine is where your CSV career really begins.

Why Choose Rephine?

• Competitive Compensation: Salary aligned to your experience and level, with annual bonus linked to company objectives.
• Benefits: Medical insurance, pension plan and flexible salary scheme (Spain), plus birthday gift card and Summer Relax.
• Work-Life Balance: Hybrid model, flexible hours Monday to Thursday, and intensive Fridays all year round.
• 24 days holiday per year (Spain).
• Global Exposure: Work with a multicultural team across Spain, UK, Europe and beyond.
• Career Path: A structured progression from L3 to L2, L1 Tech and Line Director — with real mentorship at every stage.
