Job description

Remote - Contract - Start: Late October / Early November

I'm currently supporting a global pharmaceutical organisation looking for an experienced Validation Consultant to support a major Veeva CTMS implementation within Clinical Development Operations.

Key responsibilities:

• Lead the end-to-end UAT process, including approach, planning, preparation, execution and delivery
• Develop and maintain validation documentation including URS, Traceability Matrices, Master Validation Plans, Risk Assessments, Design Specifications and UAT scripts
• Support the validation of the Veeva CTMS / Clinical Vault environment
• Translate clinical operations requirements into appropriate testing and validation activities
• Coordinate testing activities and work closely with business users and IT validation teams
• Ensure validation activities are completed in line with GxP requirements

Key experience:

• Previous Veeva CTMS or Veeva Clinical Vault experience
• Strong pharmaceutical / life sciences experience
• Hands-on experience leading UAT for clinical systems implementations
• Strong understanding of business requirements and clinical operations processes
• Comfortable acting as the link between business and IT/validation teams

This is a fully remote, long-term contract, with an anticipated start in late October/early November and potential to run through to the end of 2027.
