  • Ensure all project deliverables are developed, reviewed, approved, and executed in accordance with internal standards and regulatory requirements (GMP).
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for all internal and external stakeholders, ensuring clear communication, efficient decision-making, and strong risk management throughout project lifecycle.
  • Oversee vendor selection, contract management, and performance monitoring.
  • Manage project documentation, reporting, budget control, and change management activities.
  • Ensure projects are delivered safely and compliantly, particularly within capacity-constrained and highly regulated environments.
