Act as an internal point of contact for questionnaire related regulatory data and resolve follow-up questions until completion.
Maintain and update questionnaire data in internal databases and systems to support efficient reuse of information.
Collaborate closely with internal stakeholders such as Quality, Regulatory Affairs, R&D, Procurement Customer Service and other internal departments to gather and validate data.
Contribute to continuous improvement of questionnaire processes, data quality and efficiency.
