Supplier Quality Assurance Engineer (M/F)

The firm Partnaire CDI in Blois is recruiting for one of its clients, a major industrial site in the pharmaceutical sector recognized for its high standards in innovation and continuous improvement, a SUPPLIER QUALITY ASSURANCE OFFICER (M/F) as part of a new position creation. To meet an increase in activity related to complaint management and supplier requirements, this key role will allow you to structure and drive the quality policy with all our partners and external service providers.

Within a team of 3 people (coordinator and technician), you will autonomously manage the quality system applied to suppliers and service providers. You will guarantee the compliance of items and services, manage the quality relationship on a daily basis, and lead continuous improvement initiatives in a highly cross-functional environment. In detail, your missions are as follows: Supplier Quality Operational Management: Become the preferred quality partner for suppliers, manage complaints, deviations, and non-conformities, conduct investigations, and make decisive decisions on product acceptability. Audits and evaluation: participate in supplier approvals, conduct external audits as a lead auditor, write reports, and follow up on associated action plans (CAPA). Specifications and documentary review: participate in the drafting and updating of the documentary system (specifications, risk analyses, procedures). Performance Management: monitor and analyze key indicators (dashboards, NQA), alert in case of drift, and drive the continuous improvement process. Cross-functional Coordination: ensure the interface with internal site teams, cross-functional departments (SSEE, Purchasing, Production), as well as with the group's Quality teams. You can apply if:

• You have a higher education degree (Master's level/Bac+5, Engineering Degree or Pharmacist) with at least 3 to 5 years of experience in a similar role.
• You are familiar with the pharmaceutical sector as well as its regulatory quality standards (BPF, BDP, ISO 9001).
• You have professional English proficiency, which is essential for communicating with international suppliers.
• You master problem-solving methodology, risk analyses, and the use of computerized tools (such as SAP, TrackWise, Veeva).
• You demonstrate excellent teamwork, strong rigor, and the ability to make decisive decisions while remaining a good communicator.

The position may not be for you if:

• You are looking for a position exclusively focused on internal tasks: this is a role strongly oriented towards the outside and network animation.
• You prefer executing already fixed processes: this is a new position that requires proactivity, initiative, and the ability to structure your activities.
• Highly regulated and audited environments limit your daily creativity.
• Contract type: CDI, Executive status (Cadre).
• Location: La Chaussée Saint Victor (41).
• Remuneration: Fixed salary of 36KEUR to 42KEUR per year depending on profile + objective bonus.
