London, Greater London, United Kingdom NHS Blood and Transplant Full time
Job Summary

The NHS Blood and Transplant Manufacturing Development Team is a key team in the Blood Supply chain, performing a wide range of improvement and development projects to support the quality and safety of blood components for transfusion.

You will be required to lead projects, provide expert advice and generate innovative ideas to support service delivery principally in the blood irradiation programme. Work will usually be conducted as part of a team, but with a significant degree of individual responsibility, it is therefore important that you are able to communicate well and accurately, and to mentor others.

Main Responsibilities

The primary role is to act as subject matter expert and lead on service and product development within a designated area of the Manufacturing supply chain, and across other directorates where applicable. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Significant support for the blood irradiation programme, updates in response to regulations, and blood irradiation process ownership.
  • Evaluating and generating innovative ideas, supporting and contributing to the development of strategy and improved service delivery.

  • Providing expert advice on standards and specifications for systems, processes, consumables and equipment and leading on evaluation and procurement processes.
  • Developing expertise and providing the primary point of contact for internal and external agencies within a designated area, supporting the operation in the maintenance of quality.
  • Maintaining a thorough working knowledge of practices, procurement, licensing and regulatory requirements in all areas associated with blood component collection, manufacture, distribution and use.
  • Deputising for Manufacturing Development Team Heads of Function / Assistant Heads of Function as required

In summary, Process Development Leads own a number of process and product development lifecycles from the discovery phase through analysis, adoption, development, implementation and post market surveillance, delivering projects on time and to budget, operating independently but with support and guidance.
