• Translate enforcement trends into capability-building deliverables (e.g., targeted deep-dives, inspection readiness playbooks, and training) for sector/site readiness teams and site/corporate auditors.
• Support the design and maintenance of an early-warning system that combines manual curation and automated analytics (machine learning, trend detection) to surface emerging inspectorate priorities.
• Partner with internal audit leaders to inform risk-based audit planning and refine audit focus areas based on external enforcement signals and evolving inspectorate priorities.
• Provide enterprise regulatory insights and analysis in collaboration with Enterprise Compliance, offering a comprehensive, strategic view of global compliance posture, key risks, and priority actions across the enterprise.
• Produce periodic enforcement trend reports, dashboards/briefings, and executive-ready communications for senior leaders and regulatory intelligence stakeholders.

• 8+ years of experience in GMP compliance, inspection management, regulatory intelligence, quality assurance, and/or audit in a global pharmaceutical and/or medical device environment.
• Deep expertise in global health authority inspections and enforcement practices; strong understanding of inspectorate approaches and evolving compliance expectations.
• Strong analytical capability to synthesize qualitative and quantitative data into clear descriptive analytics, leading indicators, and actionable recommendations; experience producing executive-level reports, dashboards, and briefings.
