Rollen har ofta en utredande karaktär där du inhämtar fakta och använder ditt logiska tänkande för att komma fram till beslut. Arbetet är självständigt och uppgifterna breda, du har stor möjlighet till eget lärande, och som representant för ditt område behövs mod, engagemang, beslutsamhet och integritet.

Vi har ett nära samarbete inom våra grupper samt med övriga stödfunktioner såsom kvalitetskontroll, processteknik och underhåll, därför ställs höga krav på flexibilitet och god förmåga att kommunicera.

Det är meriterande med erfarenhet från tillverkning, kvalitetskontroll, kvalitetssäkring av läkemedel, myndighetsinspektioner eller validering/kvalificering. Även kunskaper inom LEAN är till din fördel. Vi ser gärna att du har ett intresse för teknik, system och process.

För att lyckas i rollen är du en positiv och lösningsorienterad person som trivs med ett stort kontaktnät och bred samverkan inom olika funktioner. Du är skicklig på att se helhetsperspektiv och växla mellan långa och korta deadlines. Du har förmågan att kommunicera på ett bra, förtroendeingivande sätt, och hanterar de många kontaktytorna och ibland tuffa besluten med engagemang och integritet. Visa mindre
