  • Operational Oversight: Manage critical assets (like SmartCubes and va-Q-tec packaging), run spot audits, and be a key player in ensuring training and performance are always on point.
  • Ensure Regulatory Adherence: Act as a Subject Matter Expert for compliance issues and drive continuous improvement to uphold our high standards.
What You'll Bring
  • Experience in Life Sciences, Clinical Trials, Pharma transport, or complex global logistics.
  • Strong understanding of specialised logistics systems and processes.
  • Excellent communicator who can manage stakeholders across the board.
  • Razor-sharp attention to detail and a calm, problem-solving mindset.
  • Thrive under pressure, manage shifting priorities with grace.
