A leading, global pharmaceutical manufacturing business is seeking an experienced Validation Engineer to support delivery of a major site validation and capital programme on a 12-month contract.

This is a high-impact role within a busy engineering environment, offering exposure across equipment, utilities, facilities, and laboratory systems, with a need for hands-on execution specialists. If this capability brings with it project lead experience, this will also be valued.

The Role

Working as part of the Engineering function, you will support delivery of a structured site-wide validation programme, alongside capital project activity.

Responsibilities will include:

• Supporting delivery of the Site Validation Master Plan (SVMP)
• Generating and reviewing validation / qualification documentation (IQ/OQ/PQ, FAT/SAT, etc.)
• Leading or supporting execution of validation activities across manufacturing, lab, and utility systems
• Working closely with internal stakeholders to ensure GMP and regulatory compliance
• Reviewing vendor documentation and supporting supplier-led validation activities
• Participating in FATs and site-based commissioning activities where required
• Managing or supporting third-party contractors and vendors
• Owning change controls, deviations, and CAPAs linked to validation activities
• Supporting requalification, new equipment introduction, and decommissioning activities

Project / Programme Exposure

In addition to core validation delivery, there is scope to contribute at a more strategic level:

• Supporting or leading capital project delivery (GxP and non-GxP)
• Defining project scope, timelines, and deliverables
• Managing project risks, budgets, and progress reporting
• Coordinating cross-functional stakeholders and teams
• Driving project governance, change management, and close-out activities

What We’re Looking For

We’re open to a range of profiles, from strong delivery-focused CQV engineers to more senior, project-led professionals:

• Experience in validation / CQV within GMP-regulated environments (pharma / biotech / related)
• Strong understanding of validation principles across equipment, utilities, or facilities
• Experience authoring and executing validation documentation
• Ability to work effectively across cross-functional teams and stakeholders
• Confidence operating in a fast-paced, project-driven environment
• Strong communication and problem-solving skills

We are exclusively supporting one of our longest standing clients in a significant expansion through the course of 2026.

As part of this, they are appointing a new position of Senior Quality Assurance Officer within their operational quality team on site in South London.

This person will strike the balance in hands on quality activities, as well as performing a deputy in absence of the Team Leader. As well as the usual operational quality activities such as batch release, deviation management and change control implementation, this person will need to take a lead on process ownership of investigation management and risk assessments.

If you enjoy working in a flat structured team, with broad responsibilities and a genuine opportunity for development, this could be the ideal career move.

This is a fully site based role in South London.

For further details, please contact Mark Bux-Ryan.

What you need to bring:

• Established QA experience within a GMP setting – ideally pharmaceuticals, although food manufacturing will be considered.
• Evidenced experienced of independent process ownership within QA activities – ideally investigation and risk assessment management
• Excellent stakeholder management skills
• Flexible and adaptable approach
