* Troubleshoot migration issues, data gaps, and quality problems, escalating where needed.
* Liaise with Veeva Professional Services and other implementation partners to stay aligned with best practice.
* Support data reconciliation and post-go-live verification activities.
What Were Looking For
* 58+ years experience in data or content migrations within the life sciences industry.
* Previous experience leading or contributing to a Veeva Vault migration (Quality, Regulatory, Clinical, or Commercial).
* Hands-on knowledge of Veeva Vault Loader, APIs, or other ETL tools (e.g. Boomi, Informatica, Talend).
* Strong understanding of GxP, 21 CFR Part 11, Annex 11, and cloud system validation.
* Excellent stakeholder and vendor management skills.
* Confident working with complex datasets and metadata.
* Fluent in English; additional EU language(s) a bonus.
* Able to work within the EU and travel occasionally as required.
Nice to Have
* Experience working across multiple Vault modules.
* Familiarity with IDMP, SPOR, or controlled vocabularies.
* Understanding of data governance frameworks or Agile project delivery.
* Background in wider digital or regulatory transformation projects.
