Job description

Role Overview

Based in Rewari, Haryana, this full-time onsite position sits within the Quality Control team and is focused on safeguarding the quality, compliance, and release readiness of pharmaceutical products. The role involves managing QC lab operations, carrying out and reviewing analytical work, and helping maintain a strong quality culture in a regulated GMP setting.

Key Responsibilities

  • Direct and coordinate QC laboratory work, including sampling, analysis, and release support for raw materials, packaging materials, and finished goods.
  • Examine and sign off analytical outcomes and Certificates of Analysis, while ensuring material decisions are completed promptly in SAP.
  • Handle core quality processes such as out-of-specification and out-of-trend events, deviations, change management, and Annual Product Quality Reviews.
  • Maintain compliance with cGMP, GLP, and applicable regulatory standards across QC activities and records such as SOPs, STPs, and DMS documentation.
  • Oversee laboratory readiness, including instrument qualification and validation, calibration, stability testing, and control of reagents and chemicals.
  • Contribute to audits, regulatory reviews, vendor coordination, and communication with external testing laboratories.
  • Coach and guide team members, assign work effectively, and support continuous improvement while maintaining EHS compliance.

What the Employer Is Looking For

  • A degree in Pharmacy, Chemistry, or another Life Sciences field that is relevant to the role.
  • Substantial experience in Quality Control within pharmaceutical or other regulated manufacturing environments.
  • Solid working knowledge of cGMP, GLP, and quality management processes such as OOS, deviations, change control, and APQR.
  • Practical exposure to analytical methods and lab equipment such as HPLC, GC, UV, and dissolution testing systems.
  • Working familiarity with SAP for material tracking and batch disposition is an advantage.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead people and manage several priorities at once.
  • Strong skills in communication, troubleshooting, and stakeholder coordination.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Opportunity to work in an agile, fast-moving career environment.
  • An inclusive and principled workplace culture.
  • Performance-linked compensation programs.
  • Exposure to collaboration with global cross-functional teams.
  • Access to continuous learning and professional development opportunities.
