Senior Executive- GLP

Quality Assurance (QA) Most Common

For a GLP Compliance / GLP QA role, the position generally falls under Quality Assurance, particularly when the responsibilities include:

• GLP compliance monitoring
• Laboratory/study inspections
• SOP and protocol review
• Deviation & CAPA
• Data integrity / ALCOA+
• Audit and regulatory inspection support
• Quality system management

2. Quality Control (QC) – Possible

If the role is primarily focused on laboratory testing and analytical activities, it may be part of QC. However, a dedicated GLP Compliance role is usually more QA-oriented.

3. R&D / Preclinical – Possible

In organizations conducting non-clinical/preclinical studies, GLP activities may sit within R&D/Preclinical, with an independent QA function overseeing GLP compliance.
