This is a hands-on role with real ownership — ideal for someone who enjoys working across strategy and execution in a fast-moving environment.

You’ll be responsible for leading regulatory submissions across the UK, EU, and US, including FDA 510(k), De Novo, and Q-Subs, while acting as a key point of contact for regulators and notified bodies.

  • Represent the business in FDA and regulatory authority interactions
  • Develop regulatory strategies, including classification and market pathways
  • Carry out gap analysis on technical documentation and clinical evidence
  • Maintain clinical evaluation reports (CERs) and technical files
  • Review product claims, labelling and promotional material
  • Support post-market surveillance and regulatory compliance activities
  • Work closely with Quality, Clinical, R&D and commercial teams

What We’re Looking For

  • Around 10+ years of experience in medical device regulatory affairs
  • Strong knowledge of EU MDR and FDA requirements
  • Experience with 510(k), De Novo, and Q-Sub processes
  • Comfortable working cross-functionally and influencing stakeholders
  • Able to balance detail with a practical, commercial mindset
