Vacant job

Do you want to work with products that truly make a difference in people's daily lives – every day? Now is your chance to step into a key quality role within a global organization at the forefront of medical technology and digital health. You will become part of a business developing innovative solutions for diabetes care – technology used by millions of people worldwide that has changed how chronic diseases are managed. We are now looking for a Senior Quality Specialist to strengthen our client's team in Solna!

The company operates in over 160 countries and has a long history of innovation in medical technology, diagnostics, and pharmaceuticals. The Scandinavian office in Solna is a commercial hub with approximately 20–25 employees in marketing, supply chain, and partnerships – all within a dynamic and international environment. As a Senior Quality Specialist, your closest colleagues are spread across our neighboring countries Norway, Denmark, and Finland, so much of the collaboration and training takes place digitally.

About the role
As a Senior Quality Specialist, you will support and contribute to the quality system within Diabetes Care in the EMEA region. The role is operational and involves close collaboration with both local and international functions, such as supply chain, marketing, and regulatory teams.

Among other things, you will:

• Support the implementation and maintenance of quality systems (MIMS/QS)
• Coordinate and participate in internal and external audits
• Work with quality processes such as CAPA, supplier management, document control, and deviation handling
• Ensure that operations comply with regulatory requirements and internal guidelines
• Support quality training initiatives for the organization
• Contribute to commercial projects from a quality perspective (e.g., launches, partnerships, and procurement)
• Participate in quality improvement and implementation projects

Who we are looking for
We are looking for someone who thrives in a regulated environment and has experience in quality work, preferably within medical technology, pharmaceuticals, life science, or another similar industry (e.g., automotive).

To be considered for the role, you should have:

• A Bachelor's degree in a natural science/engineering field (e.g., laboratory technician, biology, chemistry, pharmacy, life science, engineering) or a related area. Other education is acceptable in combination with relevant experience, for example in process coordination, technical analysis, quality work, or supply chain, with at least 5 years of experience in a similar role.
• 2–3 years of experience in quality work within the medical technology, diagnostics, or pharmaceutical industry (commercial operations, production, or R&D) / clinical laboratory / authority / industry organization, etc., or similar experience.
• Experience in handling/supporting QS elements such as CAPA, supplier management, handling of product deviations, etc.
• Basic knowledge of international quality systems and standards for medical devices, such as ISO 13485, ISO 9001, etc.
• Fluent communication skills in Swedish and English, both verbal and written.
• Good skills in the use of computers and business/technical software (e.g., Microsoft Office).
• Experience working in an international environment/projects is an advantage.

This is initially a six-month consultancy assignment to strengthen the team during a period of sick leave. We are currently reviewing the possibility that this could turn into a position where the client takes over the employment after the end of the assignment!

To fit into the role, you must have extensive professional experience in quality management, and we prefer that you have worked in a regulated environment governed by strict regulations and that you thrive in it! Since your closest team is not based in Sweden, it is also important that you are confident in, and enjoy creating, your own personal networks in a new workplace, and that you can perform well under the circumstances of having a manager who leads remotely.
