Quality Assurance Specialist

Quality Assurance Specialist

– For you that thrive on working with quality from an operational perspective, with a focus on both quality and commercial perspectives.

We are looking for a Quality Assurance Specialist to join our Innovation & Launch team, someone who enjoys taking on significant responsibility and working cross-functionally and project-based. As a specialist in the team, you will thrive in an environment marked by high professionalism and sharp prioritizations, where we ultimately need to ensure that products hit the market at the correct time.

About the Job

As a QA specialist focusing on tech transfers, you will help ensure that Orifarm succeeds in bringing tech transfer products to market with the right quality and at the right time. Your primary task is to ensure alignment with the project organization that manages Tech Transfers and to ensure that quality requirements from qualification to product launch are managed.

The position is a hub between quality and the commercial side of the business, so it is crucial that you can meet commercial needs while ensuring that the process proceeds according to current GMP requirements.

Tasks may therefore include:

• Participating in project meetings with various stakeholders, both in QA, the project organization, and the commercial side of the business.
• Review and approval of e.g. API audit reports, risk assessment on excipients, EI/Nitrosamines, AMT, validation documentation, master batch records and journals as well as stability testing.
• Acting as a sparring partner for our manufacturers during product transfer, manufacturing, as well as an internal sparring partner for the commercial side of the business.
• Handling change controls and identifying tasks that need to be performed in connection with a tech transfer process.
• Creating deviations in connection with tech transfer of products, production, and launch.
• Participating in and supporting the development of new procedures related to the above tasks.
• Releasing launch products to the market.
• Preparing and negotiating quality agreements with manufacturers in connection with the tech transfer of products.

Who Are You?

You will be part of a team with many dedicated colleagues, so it is important that you thrive in an environment where we work at a high pace and where priorities can shift depending on market needs. You are independent and enjoy taking responsibility for your own areas and tasks. You thrive on and have experience working project-based and keeping your stakeholders updated. You enjoy a social environment where there is room for both laughter and sparring.

Additionally, we expect that you:

• Can work structured with attention to detail and thrive on following SOPs.
• Are proficient in English, both spoken and written.
• Have a relevant educational background at the master’s level, such as a pharmacist, biochemist, biomedical scientist, or similar.
• Experience from a similar industry is preferred but not a must.

Who Are We?

In our department, we have an informal and positive tone, where there is room for both laughter and seriousness. Our good cooperation is characterized by each of us taking responsibility for our own areas but also helping each other in a busy and exciting day. There are various tasks in the team, where the individual specialists have their core competencies, and there is always room for sparring in the team.

The team is part of QA operations, a growing area with approximately 100 employees in total. The primary goal of the department is to ensure the operation of our products, from launches to handling complaints from the market, and we highly value cross-team sparring.

Our history dates back to 1994 when Orifarm was founded in Denmark by Hans & Birgitte Bøgh-Sørensen. Since then, Orifarm has grown from a small nine-person company to today being an international company operating globally in 13 different countries. Today, Orifarm is Europe's largest parallel importer of pharmaceuticals and Denmark's largest supplier of pharmaceuticals with over 2200 employees.

We operate within seven different business areas: Over the Counter (OTC), Consumer Healthcare, Generics, Promotional Rx, Unlicensed Medicines, Parallel Import, and Clinical Trials Supplies (CTS). Additionally, we focus heavily on new business opportunities and synergistic M&A to further enhance our offerings.
