About the Role

We are seeking an experienced CMC Manager to lead the transition of new pharmaceutical products from early research through scale‑up and into GMP manufacturing.

This is a highly specialised, independent role. You’ll work closely with research teams to translate innovative concepts into validated, compliant manufacturing processes.

* Collaborate closely with scientific teams at the associated university R&D group to integrate new discoveries into scalable processes.

* Provide technical expertise during internal and external audits.

* Ensure compliance with GMP, regulatory standards, and site quality systems.

Essential Experience & Skills

* Hands‑on product‑to‑lab experience, ideally taking products from laboratory research through to scale‑up.

* Radiopharmaceutical (radiopharma/ nuclear medicine) experience is essential—ideally within a GMP or regulated environment.

* Strong understanding and practical experience with validation requirements, including:

* Equipment qualification

* Process validation

* IQ / OQ / PQ development and execution

* Strong communication skills and confidence operating as the site’s technical process development representative.

Why Join Us?

* Be part of a brand new site directly integrated with cutting‑edge university radiopharma research.

* Play a pivotal role in bringing next‑generation radiopharmaceuticals to patients.

* Work in a specialised, purpose‑driven environment where your technical expertise has immediate impact.

* Join a growing UK organisation with ongoing investment in leadership and validation
