If you have expertise in or a desire to learn Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) in a GxP regulated production environment, this could be your chance to personally impact business-critical systems in the Life Science Industry.

Bring your own personal ambition and dedication, and we will promise you a chance to join a team of highly qualified colleagues spanning across two office locations.

The position

As a MES Analyst, you will have a key role in our MES project teams. Our overall aim is to improve the efficiency of all manufacturing-related processes for our customers in the Life Science industry. You will be a central person in these transformation activities.

·       Cooperating with the customer on-site regarding aspects such as gap analysis, designing business processes, configuration, documentation and validation of processes, as well as, training before the data conversion and go-live activities.

·       Writing validation test protocols and reports for projects and patch upgrades. Participate in and/or review test execution to ensure the right quality level.

The position requires the ability to take independent decisions based on business requirements and business strategy. Many areas of the customers' organisation must be taken into consideration in the decision making since the position influences the quality level of the batch documentation. As such, this position is operating across several functional and managerial levels and is an exciting opportunity to work with many stakeholders.

Qualifications

We expect you to have a Master’s degree within a relevant discipline e.g. business, economics, pharmacist or equivalent. You have been working in a similar position or in the pharmaceutical production area having process knowledge.

On a personal level, this position requires strong commitment and the ability to make decisions, often in a consensus-driven and also the political environment. Furthermore, it requires the ability to be self-motivated, structured and targeted with a high degree of flexibility. You use your empathy and excellent general and IT apprehension to change complex technical challenges and demands into workable solutions. Hence, you need good communication skills that enable you to discuss complicated IT matters with non-IT personnel in written and spoken English.

Some travel should be expected as our customers have production facilities on several continents.
