The candidate will be responsible for supporting activities related to Medical Device Coding for Complaints and bring strong knowledge of Risk Management methodology as it relates to project planning. Ideal candidates will bring past experience with implementation of a new software system for quality applications (PMS system, Complaint Handling system, eQMS, eDMS, etc.). Project Management skills and titles are very important. The ideal candidate would have 5+ years in a Program/Project Management setting, although I will consider candidates with as little as ~5 years of PM experience with some experience in a Medical Device setting, although similar mixed experience is fine as well.
