Auria Consulting Group’s fractional leadership services offer pharmaceutical and life sciences companies access to experienced quality and compliance executives—such as Chief Quality Officers (CQOs) and Senior Vice Presidents of Quality—on a flexible, part-time, or interim basis. Ideal for organizations undergoing growth, preparing for inspections, managing remediation, or navigating strategic transitions, our fractional leaders bring decades of GMP, regulatory, and operational expertise. They embed directly into your team to provide both strategic direction and day-to-day oversight, while mentoring internal staff and ensuring alignment with global regulatory expectations. This service helps bridge leadership gaps, drive critical initiatives, and support organizational stability without the long-term commitment of a full-time executive.

Our fractional leadership services include:

• Interim CQO or SVP of Quality placement

• Strategic quality planning and governance oversight

• Inspection readiness leadership and front-room/back-room coordination

• Quality system assessments and roadmap development

• Oversight of remediation programs and compliance commitments

• Cross-functional team alignment and leadership coaching

• Representation in regulatory agency interactions and audits

• Support for site start-ups, expansions, or M&A transitions

• Design and implementation of KPIs and quality metrics
