• Prepare, label, and dispense IP for dosing in strict compliance with protocols, randomization schedules, EPCU SOPs, and regulatory requirements.
• Ensure timely and accurate delivery or availability of IP for all dosing activities.
• Maintain accurate and complete documentation of IP receipt, preparation, dispensing, returns, and destruction or return to the Sponsor.
• Oversee proper storage, archiving, and maintenance of IP study documentation.
• Ensure that IP is securely stored in designated locked areas within the EPCU.
• Comply with EPCU SOPs, Good Clinical Practices (GCP), and Good Pharmacy Practices.
• Participate in project or client meetings to represent EPCU Pharmacy services, as applicable.
• Support sponsor monitoring visits related to IP accountability and documentation.

• Highly preferred: Knowledge of sterile compounding practices.
• Strong attention to detail and accuracy in documentation.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills.
• Ability to work effectively in a fast‑paced, dynamic environment.
