As a Regulatory Affairs Intern I was part of a team tasked in creating a SharePoint portal used to enhance communication between business units, provide guidance regarding internal and external requirements, and serve as a database maintaining up-to-date regulatory requirements of various jurisdictions. My main project was to create a Regulatory Affairs MS Guidebook. This involved the collection and analysis of data in order to identify processes needing improvement. After identifying the processes to be covered I drafted the Guidebook in order to improve process execution, reduce business risks and ensure compliance on issues of both regulatory and organizational importance. Based on my research of various international regulatory requirements and, Zeiss' internal policies I designed simplified process outlines which identifed and explained each of the key areas of importance. Upon completion of the guidebook I presented the project to various stakeholders in order to introduce the project, gain feedback and improve the finished product. In addition to the RA Guidebook I was also involved in several other projects and assisted other team members when required. Additional tasks included preparing presentations for my SVP, researching sustainability initiatives, brainstorming future KPIs, editing documents, starring in corporate training videos and assisting in the interview and selection process of the new replacement intern.
