    • Oversee the full lifecycle of validation activities, including planning, execution, documentation, and maintenance, with a focus on integrating CSV into agile software development processes.
    • Ensure validation deliverables such as risk assessments, validation plans, protocols, test cases, and traceability matrices are prepared to the highest standards of quality and regulatory compliance.
    • Monitor and interpret changes in global regulatory requirements, proactively updating internal policies and procedures to maintain compliance and operational excellence.
    • Utilize technology to drive operational efficiencies into the CSV process.

    • Regulatory Compliance and Quality Assurance
    • Serve as the subject matter expert on regulatory requirements for computerized systems supporting clinical research, providing guidance on the practical application of regulations to diverse technology solutions.
    • Collaborate closely with Quality to identify, assess, and remediate compliance gaps, ensuring all systems meet GCP and other relevant standards.
    • Lead the preparation and submission of documentation for regulatory inspections, audits, and sponsor audits, ensuring timely and accurate responses to findings and observations.

    • Cross Functional Collaboration and Stakeholder Engagement
    • Act as a strategic partner to corporate IT, Product, software development, Quality, and operational teams, facilitating the integration of CSV requirements into business processes and technology projects.
    • Advocate for pragmatic, risk-based approaches that balance regulatory compliance with business agility and innovation.
    • Design and deliver training programs to build organizational capability in CSV principles, regulatory requirements, and best practices.

    • Team Management & Development
    • Lead, mentor, and develop a team of validation specialists, fostering a culture of collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement.
    • Ensure the team is appropriately resourced, trained, and equipped to deliver on validation objectives and support organizational growth.
    • Conduct regular performance reviews, set clear goals, and provide constructive feedback to support professional development and high performance.

    • Audit & Inspection Support
    • Represent the CSV function during internal and external audits, regulatory inspections, and sponsor reviews.
    • Coordinate the investigation and resolution of audit findings, ensuring corrective and preventive actions are implemented effectively and sustainably.
    • Maintain readiness for audits by ensuring documentation, processes, and systems are consistently compliant and up to date.

    • Strong understanding of clinical trial processes, electronic systems (e.g., CTMS, eTMF, EDC), and their validation requirements.
    • Proven ability to lead validation projects, manage cross-functional teams, and oversee vendors or third-party system providers.
    • Excellent communication skills for translating technical requirements into clear guidance for non-technical stakeholders.
    • Advanced problem-solving and risk-assessment capabilities for determining appropriate validation scope and strategies.
    • Experience preparing for and supporting regulatory inspections, sponsor audits, and internal quality reviews.
    • Strong organizational and project-management skills, including the ability to manage multiple global initiatives simultaneously.
