About the role
The Regulatory Affairs Senior Associate will work at the interface of R&D and Regulatory, building a genuine technical understanding of the product's formulation and analytical profile to support sound regulatory strategy. This is not a document-processing role — it requires the ability to engage with development science, identify potential issues, and contribute informed regulatory thinking rather than just administrative submission support.
Responsibilities
- Develop a working technical understanding of assigned products — formulation composition and rationale, manufacturing process, and analytical/impurity profile — sufficient to identify regulatory implications independently. - Review R&D and Analytical data, including formulation trials, stability studies, method validation and characterization data, critically to spot gaps, inconsistencies or risks. - Support the Manager/Director in framing regulatory strategy by contributing well-reasoned technical inputs. - Assess the regulatory impact of significant development changes and ensure that comparability, bridging or additional evidence requirements are addressed prospectively. - Prepare and/or review assigned dossier sections, briefing packages and responses to major authority questions, ensuring completeness. - Drive submission readiness, including gap closure, review cycles, issue escalation and completion against agreed milestones.
Requirements
Experience and Qualifications
- Minimum 4 years of relevant pharmaceutical or biopharmaceutical industry experience. - Minimum 2–3 years of genuine exposure in R&D, either formulation development and/or analytical sciences.
Required Skills
- Understanding of and hands-on experience with regulatory dossier structure and requirements, including CTD/eCTD, is preferred, though the primary emphasis of this role is technical/scientific understanding over document compilation. - Strong analytical thinking and the confidence to raise technical concerns proactively. - Clear written and verbal communication skills for cross-functional technical discussions. - Ability to manage multiple deliverables independently within defined timelines.
Added Advantage
- Experience with complex injectables, biologics/biosimilars, drug-device combination products or other technically complex dosage forms.
