Regulatory manager, Krka Bulgaria EOOD, Bulgaria

As a regulatory manager at Krka Bulgaria, I have chosen a career path that combines my passion for excellence and my interest and knowledge in regulatory affairs.

My decision to pursue a career in regulatory affairs at Krka stems from my desire to contribute to the approval of medicines with the highest quality and to ensure that patients in Bulgaria have access to safe and effective treatments. My role is multifaceted, challenging and constantly evolving. It requires a broad understanding of pharmaceutical science and legislation, as well as excellent communication and negotiation skills. Every day provides a new challenge and thus it is never boring!

At Krka, I have found a company that shares my values and visions. As my first career choice I was very excited when I was accepted in a team of professionals, who are dedicated to making a positive impact and are globally acknowledged.

Working for almost 10 years with local and global mentors, who have extensive experience in the industry, provided valuable insights and guidance, helped me develop a deeper understanding of regulatory affairs and taught me the best practices for navigating complex regulatory environments. During those years, I had the privilege of working with colleagues that provided me with invaluable mentorship and support, helping me excel in both my professional and personal life.
