**Mission context**

As part of ongoing manufacturing operations at a major biopharmaceutical production site in Oberwallis, Recrutis is looking for a GMP Deviation Technical Writer to join the operational production teams.

The role focuses on the structured recording, writing and follow-up of GMP deviations, in close collaboration with Production, QA and MSAT teams.

- Contribute to reducing the deviation backlog within agreed timelines
- Strictly adhere to internal SOPs and site GMP requirements

- Operational English required
- German B2 minimum — mandatory (working language on site)

Strong assets:

- Direct experience in GMP deviation documentation (recording, encoding, tracking)
- Familiarity with electronic quality systems (Trackwise, Veeva Vault or equivalent)
- Prior experience at a major biotech site in Switzerland — particularly candidates already familiar with the tools and GMP culture of large-scale sites such as Lonza Visp or Lonza Stein
- Experience on site during a PQ/PPQ phase

**Languages**

- German B2 minimum — mandatory
- English: operational level required

**⚠️ Important**

This role is focused on operational documentation and reporting. Purely engineering, QA office-only or R&D profiles without hands-on manufacturing experience will not be considered.

- Full on-site presence required
- Start date: April / May 2026
