Local Contact Person for Pharmacovigilance - LCPPV in Uganda (Freelance)

Tepsivo is a young company on an ambitious mission to reshape the world of Pharma and pharmacovigilance into a modern-day industry. Since our conception in 2020, we’ve become the world’s first fully digital global drug safety provider, with a genuine end-to-end PV system run by our in-house developed tools.

We’re looking for an experienced Local Contact Person for Pharmacovigilance (LCPPV) who is ready to take on the challenge of supporting our customers in navigating the PV landscape in Uganda.

While doing this, you get the chance to make a dent in the PV services industry that has so far been dominated by dinosaurs relying on obsolete business models with low value-added activities and manual labor-intensive processes.

It’s high time for a change, and that’s what we’re here to do. Are you?

What is your ideal background?

• Pharmacist or physician
• Residence in Uganda
• Professional fluency in English
• Experience in the local pharmacovigilance activities in Uganda
• Has experience as a freelancer

What do we expect you to do?

As the LCPPV, we expect you to support Tepsivo Customers with their local pharmacovigilance system implementation and maintenance in Uganda.

We expect you to be an innovative thinker comfortable with implementing new types of processes and use of smart technology. We expect you to have the ability to work independently and collaboratively and assume complete accountability for all your activities. Last but not least, we expect you to be able to operate in a highly regulated environment requiring full documentation of all performed activities.

As the LCPPV in Uganda, you will report directly to the Director of PV Services.

General areas of responsibilities:

• Acting as LCPPV for Tepsivo Customers
• Support Tepsivo Customers in their local PV needs within Uganda
• Reporting of local ICSRs via Tepsivo Platform
• Regulatory Intelligence within Uganda
• Support in local audits and inspections
• Completion of CAPAs
• Liaising with the local regulatory authorities

Our modus operandi

We’re a modern company and believe in a decentralized approach to management. This means we are strong supporters of providing enough freedom on where you work as well as how. Your boss will not look over your shoulder every day. Instead, you will have transparent access to key company data and objectives, and we will expect you to make informed decisions on the areas of your responsibility. In return, we expect you to be fully accountable for your own work, good or bad.

This can only work with people of the right talent and those who genuinely share our values and philosophy. Tepsivo solutions have removed, automated, or otherwise digitized routine PV activities and what is left is value-added work requiring a strong skill set. If you’re selected to work at Tepsivo, that means you’re already among the best of your peers, and that is something we hope to foster and reward accordingly.

If you’re ready for a true challenge, then please submit your CV, let’s talk!
