Your Role 

As Senior RQS Data Specialist, you will help govern, improve and operate regulatory, quality and safety data and information. Working with the Veeva Vault RIM Data Lead, RQS Data Governance Lead and global stakeholders, you will turn regulatory, quality, safety and business needs into clear standards, data-quality controls, sustainable processes and fit-for-purpose information models.

Data governance and quality: Act as Business Data Steward and subject matter expert for enterprise regulatory data domains, including medicinal product, substance, organization, registration, manufacturing, submission and reference data. Define RQS data-management standards and principles (including FAIR and ALCOA+) as well as maintain data ownership and stewardship accountabilities; set data-quality objectives, entry and maintenance rules, controls, measures and remediation plans so data is accurate, complete, traceable and fit for business and regulatory use.

Data operations: Coordinate people, processes and technology into a cohesive operating model covering roles, training, reporting, requirements capture, data-flow mapping, delivery mechanisms, lifecycle controls and resourcing. Ensure governance requirements are embedded in business processes, data products and supporting systems.

Data architecture and meaning: Support consistent RQS data definitions and use; ensure stakeholders document data meaning, master and metadata needs, security requirements, analytical use and governance for sustainable “data with meaning”.

Regulatory compliance and submissions: Support health-authority requirements for regulatory and medicinal-product information, applying xEVMPD, ISO IDMP and eCTD 4.0; contribute to data-focused discussions with health authorities, when applicable.

Strategy and improvement: Support the RQS data strategy from vision through implementation and assess advanced technologies that reduce manual work, improve consistency and strengthen controls without compromising compliance.

Leadership and collaboration: Provide pro-active (indirect) business leadership in cross-functional projects by owning the activities or coordinating RQS, R&D, Healthcare, Life Science, DDIT, technology and data-management stakeholders to achieve the goals. Mentor and train junior colleagues as well as when applicable, oversee external CROs and service providers, resources and delivery in a matrix organization.
