Mississauga, Ontario, Canada Brunel Full-time

We are currently hiring a Compliance Specialist (Biobank / Human Biological Sample) for our client, a global pharmaceutical company known for its innovative technology and products. This position is offered as a full-time role on a 12-month renewable contract, with 3 days in-office and 2 days remote.

This role is part of a new initiative emphasizing strong documentation, governance, and data integrity. It involves supporting biobank and human biological sample (HBS) compliance and maintaining controlled documentation. You will help ensure that sample-related records and procedures are accurate, traceable, and prepared for internal review or audits.

Responsibilities

  • Support compliance activities tied to Human Biological Samples (HBS) (e.g., documentation completeness, traceability, governance alignment).
  • Convert historical lab/procedure documents into a new controlled template and migrate into a Content Management System (CMS).
  • Facilitate document workflows: routing for review, managing comments, and coordinating approvals/sign-off.
  • Partner with internal stakeholders (e.g., lab teams, compliance, training) to ensure finalized procedures are assigned for training.
  • Identify and resolve documentation gaps and support data integrity efforts (accuracy, version control, auditability).
  • Contribute to continuous improvement in documentation processes (practical, compliant, and scalable).

Requirements

  • Similar compliance experience within pharma/healthcare/CRO environments.
  • Demonstrated experience working with Human Biological Samples (HBS) (biobank, clinical samples, etc.).
  • Experience with controlled documents and a content/document management system (formatting, migration, routing approvals, version control).
  • Strong data integrity mindset: detail-oriented, consistent, and able to spot mismatches or missing documentation.
  • Flexible and open mindset: comfortable adapting, collaborating, and accepting that there may be multiple “right” approaches.
  • Strong stakeholder communication: influencing to move the work forward.
