Job description
Role Overview
This contract opportunity is for a Regulatory Affairs Associate I based in North Chicago, Illinois, with a hybrid schedule that requires onsite presence on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. The role is focused on regulatory information management, submission tracking, and maintaining accurate records across regional systems and processes.
The compensation for this position is $30 to $33 per hour.
Required Background
Applicants should have a bachelor’s degree in Regulatory Affairs. The ideal candidate will bring experience handling regulatory data, familiarity with Veeva, and a background in pharmacy or health sciences, including fresh graduates from those fields. Strong verbal and written communication skills are also important.
Key Duties
The associate will help manage planned submissions and approvals across the region, support regulatory information management work, and maintain key systems and processes such as COSMOS, HUBBLE, and CIU. The role also involves coordinating with the central data management team to build market-specific RIM objects following agreed data standards.
Additional work includes updating product registrations to reflect approvals or renewals, recording obligations and commitments, and connecting local regulatory workflows with the COSMOS activity framework to ensure complete and accurate tracking of submissions and correspondence across countries and regions. The position requires active monitoring of submission and approval dates, follow-up with affiliates when needed, and confirmation that submissions are properly archived in CIU.
The associate will also ensure notification-only activities are closed correctly, verify that agency correspondence and responses are imported into COSMOS, confirm response structures are tied to the correct activity, and make sure approval letters and related status updates are captured accurately. Support for audit and inspection requests, monthly quality-control reporting, gap identification, and data remediation is also expected. The role further includes helping define KPI and metrics needs, supporting analytics development in HUBBLE, and assisting with system enhancements, migrations, data harmonization, and process improvement initiatives.
