When a vaccine shipment sits a few degrees too warm, someone has to decide whether it can still be used. That is the work of a Senior Cold Chain Excursion Assessment Specialist: reviewing temperature data, judging the risk to product quality and recommending what happens next. This full-time role is 100% remote.
About the Role
You will evaluate temperature deviations during storage and transport of temperature-sensitive products, with a focus on remote excursion investigations, product risk assessments, compliance documentation and corrective action recommendations. Day to day, that means reviewing monitoring data, data logger records and shipment reports, judging the effect of excursion length, temperature range and product specifications on quality and stability, writing assessment reports and keeping accurate digital records.
Career Impact & Growth Opportunity
Pharmaceutical cold chain is a specialised, high-trust field. Experience in excursion assessment, GDP and CAPA can lead toward Quality Assurance Manager, Responsible Person or Head of Pharma Logistics Quality roles, and the listing mentions professional development and advancement opportunities.
