Pharmaceutical Compliance Specialist

About the role

We are seeking an organized, detail‑oriented Pharmaceutical Compliance Specialist to join our team. This is an entry‑level position supporting the licensing and regulatory compliance of pharmaceutical drug wholesalers across the United States. Our company assists pharmaceutical businesses obtain and maintain state licenses required to operate as drug wholesalers. In this role, you will work with state regulatory agencies, review licensing information, identify and resolve issues, and monitor changes to licensing requirements. This is a hands‑on role where you will work across several key areas of pharmaceutical licensing and compliance, supporting the team wherever needed. The ideal candidate is someone who is curious, resourceful, comfortable communicating with government agencies, and enjoys figuring out how to solve problems.

Responsibilities

• License Verification: Review newly issued state licenses to ensure they were issued correctly and contain accurate information.
• Application Deficiencies & Problem Solving: Monitor submitted license applications and identify deficiencies, requests for additional information, and other issues. Work directly with state boards, departments, and government officials to resolve application problems.
• Regulatory Compliance: Identify changes that may impact existing or future licenses. Research new requirements and determine what action may be needed. Communicate regulatory changes to the appropriate team members and assist with implementing necessary updates.
• Additional duties:
  • Maintain detailed records, deadlines, and follow‑up items.
  • Assist other team members with various regulatory and licensing projects.
  • Take ownership of assigned issues and follow them through to completion.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree preferred in Business, Communications, Public Policy, or a related field; or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
• Excellent organizational and follow‑up skills.
• Strong attention to detail.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Ability to research and understand information from government websites and regulations.
• Comfortable making phone calls and communicating with government officials.
• Strong problem‑solving skills and a willingness to figure things out independently.
• Ability to manage multiple projects, deadlines, and priorities.
• Comfortable working with spreadsheets, databases, email, and standard office software.
• A proactive attitude and willingness to learn.
• Previous experience in pharmaceutical, healthcare, regulatory, licensing, or compliance is a plus but not required.

Ideal Candidate

You don't need to know pharmaceutical regulations on day one. We are looking for someone who is smart, organized, curious, and resourceful—someone who will see a problem, research it, make the necessary calls, follow up, and keep working until it is resolved. The role requires someone who is comfortable wearing different hats and jumping between tasks. One day you may be verifying a newly issued license, the next you may be calling a state board to resolve an application deficiency, and the next you may be researching a new licensing requirement. If you like solving problems, keeping things organized, and learning how things work, this could be a great entry point into pharmaceutical regulatory compliance.
