#TEAMBULK ARE HIRING A REGULATORY AFFAIRS ASSOCIATE
Bulk™ is on an incredible journey, with a mission to move the business from a manufacturing‑led retailer to a destination brand for active nutrition. We are shaking up the sports nutrition industry through disruptive marketing campaigns that help people think differently about our brand – and we want you to be a part of it!
We want passionate risk‑takers. We want people that like to challenge our thinking. We want people that live and breathe digital and have an affinity to the world of nutrition, health, fitness, and sports.
IN A NUTSHELL
Reporting to the Regulatory Affairs Manager, this Regulatory Affairs Associate is a key member of the Regs team within the wider Technical function. This role plays a critical part in ensuring business‑wide compliance, safeguarding Bulk™ against regulatory risk, and enabling confident product launches across the UK and key EU markets. You will take ownership of core regulatory activities, from pack copy approval to ingredient risk assessment, while also contributing to the expansion into new international markets.
WHAT WILL YOU BE DOING?
- Own regulatory sign‑off for formulations, pack copy, artwork, and web content, ensuring compliance across all markets
- Maintain and develop regulatory databases, supporting accurate and consistent product information
- Monitor regulatory changes (horizon scanning) and translate these into clear business actions
- Partner with internal teams and third parties to deliver compliant product launches, including pre‑market notifications
- Assess new ingredients and claims, supporting innovation with clear risk‑based guidance
- Lead responses to non‑compliance, driving corrective actions and continuous improvement
- Initiate and manage regulatory updates to packaging and digital content
- Act as the regulatory point of contact for designated markets, providing expert guidance across the business
- Support key compliance activities, including nutrition surveillance, product specifications, international registrations, and audits

- Solid, hands‑on knowledge of UK and EU food and food supplements regulations, with experience across formulation checks, pack copy, and label sign‑off
