Quality Assurance Associate – Thetford

Full-time | On-site | Core hours between 07:00–17:30 with flexible working within this window

Are you meticulous, analytical, and passionate about producing high‑quality documentation that drives compliance and operational excellence? We’re looking for a Quality Assurance Associate to join our Compounding Unit in Thetford — someone who thrives in a regulated environment and brings strong technical writing and data analysis experience to the table. Our compounding department manufactures aseptic products such as chemo-therapy, antibiotics and nutrition.

This role is critical to maintaining the highest standards of GMP and “Specials” manufacturing compliance, and is fully on-site due to the hands‑on nature of our operations.

What you’ll be doing

In this role, you’ll play a vital part in ensuring our facility operates safely, compliantly, and in line with regulatory and corporate expectations. Key responsibilities include:

Ensuring continuous compliance of the Compounding Unit with cGMP, “Specials” manufacturing requirements, local procedures, and Baxter Corporate policies.
Leading and executing high‑quality documentation reviews with strong technical writing accuracy.
Analysing complaint data, monitoring trends, and managing CAPAs to drive effective solutions.

This role requires strong technical writing and analytical skills — these are essential. We’re looking for someone who can interpret data, write clearly and concisely, and produce documentation that stands up to regulatory scrutiny.

You will also bring:

Experience in a GMP or regulated manufacturing environment (pharmaceutical experience idea but not essentiall).
Confidence in reviewing complex data sets and producing accurate, high‑quality reports.
Excellent attention to detail and a proactive approach to identifying issues and improvements.
Strong communication skills and the ability to challenge appropriately in support of compliance.
A collaborative mindset with the ability to work effectively with Operations, Quality Systems, and wider teams.
