Why Patients Need You

Everything we do, every day, is in line with an unwavering commitment to the quality and the delivery of safe and effective products to patients. Our science and risk-based compliant quality culture is flexible, innovative, and customer oriented.

What You Will Achieve

You will be a member of Pfizer’s dedicated and highly effective external quality team. You will provide quality oversight for Pfizer product testing at Contract Testing Organizations (CTOs), including Contract Manufacturing Organizations (CMOs) that perform testing, to ensure compliance with cGMP regulations and quality agreements, including small and large molecules finished intermediates, drug substance, and drug product. You will serve as the quality single point of contact for designated CTOs and participate as a key member of CTO/CMO governance teams to enable site selection and testing implementation - including due diligence activities, oversight of quality activities at testing sites, and/or decommissioning activities.

You will evaluate and review external QC data for Pfizer’s commercial batch manufacturing of drugs. You will make sure that product and process documents match the specifications based on established sampling and statistical process control procedures. Your expertise will help in identifying deviations from established standards in the testing of products. In the relevant cases, you will coordinate and/or approve investigations and change control activities to ensure compliance with internal processes and regulatory expectations.

As a Manager, you provide guidance to external operational teams for managing projects. Your planning skills will help in preparing forecasts for external resource requirements, and providing areas of improvement for products, processes or services.

It is your problem solving skills that will make Pfizer ready to achieve new milestones and help patients across the globe.
