Lead structured audit planning and debriefing strategy and risk prioritization by reviewing supplier performance data, including deviations, CAPAs, complaints, change notifications, prior audit outcomes, and regulatory inspection history, to ensure audits are focused on high-risk areas and emerging compliance trends.

Standardize audit tools, checklists, and risk models across regions and GxP domains, incorporating regulatory intelligence and cross functional input to drive consistent and effective audit execution.

Establish and maintain centralized oversight of supplier audit observations across all GxP areas, partnering with lead auditors and subject matter experts to ensure consistent classification based on risk and regulatory impact.

Drive consistency in supplier CAPA evaluation, closure timelines, and effectiveness verification, while monitoring audit trends to identify systemic risks and recurring compliance issues across the supplier base.

Lead the auditor competency program across GxPs by assessing auditor qualifications, experience, and technical expertise, and maintaining a capability matrix that captures audit history, domain knowledge, and regional regulatory expertise.

Identify training gaps and implement targeted development plans to strengthen auditor effectiveness and consistency, ensuring auditors maintain appropriate qualifications and certifications aligned with industry expectations.

Lead peer reviews of audit reports and collaborate with subject matter experts and auditors to ensure outputs are objective, evidence based, and aligned with applicable regulatory standards. Ensure findings are documented clearly and consistently, while maintaining independence and integrity throughout all stages of audit execution and reporting.

Support regulatory inspections by providing audit documentation, risk assessments, and supplier oversight evidence. Maintain audit records, metrics, and dashboards to demonstrate program effectiveness.
