• Troubleshoot system issues and provide first-line support to laboratory and manufacturing teams.
• Collaborate with Quality, IT, Manufacturing, and global support teams to deliver compliant system enhancements.
• Maintain controlled documentation, SOPs, and training materials in line with regulatory requirements.
• Support inspections, audits, and digital transformation initiatives while helping maintain data integrity and laboratory compliance.

Your edge (desired, not required)

• Bachelor's degree in Chemistry, Biological Sciences, Computer Science, or a related scientific discipline.
• 4+ years of hands-on LabWare LIMS experience within a pharmaceutical or GMP-regulated environment.
• Experience configuring analyses, product specifications, calculations, and static data within LabWare LIMS.
• Strong understanding of GMP, GDP, ALCOA+, pharmaceutical quality systems, and regulatory compliance.
• Experience with Computer System Validation (CSV), SDLC, change control, and User Acceptance Testing.
• Knowledge of SQL, LIMS Basic, or other laboratory systems would be advantageous.
• Excellent communication, analytical, organisational, and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams in a fast-paced, regulated environment.

Why this role matters
