About the Role

The Company is seeking an Executive Director for its GxP Quality Center of Excellence. This strategic leadership role is pivotal in establishing and leading an enterprise-wide GxP quality capability that ensures consistent, data-driven, and risk-balanced practices across R&D and associated functions. The successful candidate will be responsible for integrating various quality aspects, including vendor quality, device quality, GxP inspections, CAPA, and investigation excellence, into a unified operating model. Key responsibilities include driving a risk-balanced, data-driven quality culture, partnering with cross-functional stakeholders to mitigate quality and compliance risks, and championing enterprise-wide quality transformation. The role also involves leading global inspection management, establishing a GxP vendor quality oversight framework, and providing strategic leadership in business development quality. Applicants for this role at the company should have a Bachelor's or higher degree in a scientific discipline, with an advanced degree strongly preferred, and a minimum of 15-20 years of progressive experience in the pharmaceutical or biotech industry, particularly in quality roles. Deep knowledge of GCP, GVP, and other GxPs, as well as a proven track record in leading regulatory authority inspections, is essential. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in organizational transformation, governance, and global program leadership, with a focus on digital innovation and AI-enabled quality transformation. Experience in M&A due diligence and integration, as well as exposure to medical devices, diagnostics, and novel modalities, is a plus. The role requires exceptional leadership, strategic thinking, and the ability to influence and collaborate with senior stakeholders.
