Regulatory Affairs Specialist

What the role covers day to day

You will prepare and manage regulatory submissions to the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation and state licensing authorities, covering new product registrations, renewals, and post-approval changes for the company's India portfolio. You will review labelling, packaging, and promotional material for regulatory compliance before it goes to market, track regulatory timelines against launch plans, and respond to queries and deficiency letters from regulators. You will also monitor changes in Indian pharmaceutical regulation and translate what they mean for the company's existing approvals and pipeline, and coordinate with the global regulatory team on submissions that need to align across markets.
