For quality engineers
Quality engineering, CAPA, complaints and supplier quality roles with device and pharmaceutical manufacturers, contract and permanent.
Why people in your role call us
CAPA appears on almost every quality CV, which makes it useless as a screening term. What separates candidates is whether they have investigated to a genuine root cause, or whether they have documented a plausible one and moved on because the due date was approaching.
Clients feel this difference only later, when the same finding returns at the next audit and the effectiveness check turns out to have been a signature. By then the engagement is months old.
So we ask about a specific investigation, in detail. It is uncomfortable for about four minutes and it is the reason our submissions convert.
Under 2 MB. PDF, DOC, DOCX, RTF, PPT or PPTX.
We never present your profile to a client without your permission. No fees, ever.
What we place you into
Root cause investigation through to demonstrated effectiveness.
Intake, assessment and reportability decisions with the trail to support them.
Disposition decisions and the evidence behind them.
Supplier audits, qualification and corrective action management.
Design controls, risk management and design transfer support.
Preparing a site or a system for an audit that is already scheduled.
What we ask you
One investigation, in detail, tells us more than a CV.
If you can answer those properly you will be represented accurately, which is most of what goes wrong elsewhere.
Rates and timelines
Quality engineering rates vary by industry, by whether the role is site-based or corporate, and by how much design quality responsibility it carries. Device roles and pharma roles do not track each other.
We do not publish rate figures. What we do is tell you the client band before you interview, so you are not guessing what you are worth or discovering it at offer stage.
Typical time to first submission: Usually within a week; faster where a client has an audit date approaching.
Questions
Both, and they are different. Device quality carries design controls and risk management that pharma quality does not, and we screen for which you have actually done.
Often, particularly site-based manufacturing quality. Corporate and design quality roles are more frequently hybrid.
Yes, including fractional arrangements for smaller organisations that cannot justify a full-time senior hire.
Auditing is its own track and we place it separately. Tell us which direction you want to move rather than letting the market decide for you.
Specific enough to be slightly uncomfortable. That is deliberate, and it is why clients trust the profiles we send.
