The Quality Manager serves as the accountable quality leader for dedicated manufacturing operations at the Round Lake Drug Delivery site. This role is responsible for ensuring compliant execution of manufacturing activities through direct QA oversight, robust quality system execution, and effective people leadership.

The manager oversees daytoday quality performance within the penicillin area, including batch disposition, deviation and CAPA execution, and strict adherence to contamination control and segregation requirements. The role partners closely with Manufacturing, Engineering, Microbiology, Supply Chain, and other stakeholders to ensure safe, compliant, and reliable product supply.

Within Quality, every role makes a difference. Products that Baxter makes are shipped worldwide for patients in need. Whether it's building a new process from scratch or facing a never-before-seen production hurdle, individuals within Quality are given the trust and opportunity to bring creativity to the table. Regardless of your specific role with a product, it is sure to touch a portion of our global operation.

The mission of Baxter is to save and sustain lives. This mission is embedded into everything we do. This means if there is a decision to be made where quantity and quality are at odds, we will always choose quality. Our patients come first, always.

The Quality function values both working together as a team and independently. We draw energy from working in a plant or an office where there are opportunities to collaborate. As the company evolves, so does the way our team approaches work as it strives to create top-of-the-line products.

We build relationships with each other to get work done. Building these relationships is easy because we all share common traits of being reliable, ethical, and caring. We lean on our colleagues for their expertise and hold each other accountable. We feel empowered to speak up when there's a new insight or opportunity to improve something. This open dialog builds trust within the team and helps create a better product for our customers.
