If you have a science background and have been looking for a proper entry point into Regulatory Affairs in IVD, most grad roles right now are not giving you what this one does.
A well established IVD company in Cambridge is building out their IVDR transition team ahead of the 2028 deadline.
The portfolio runs to over 70 products, 20 of which are already IVDR CE marked. The rest need gap analysis, technical file collation and Notified Body interaction support, and they need a methodical, detail driven RA Associate to help get it done.
Here is what you actually get from this role.
You will work across a significant IVD product portfolio at a critical point in the regulatory calendar. Your day to day mentor is a specialist with ten years in IVD. By the end of this FTC (which runs until December 2028) you will have hands on IVDR technical file experience and a real understanding of how product lifecycle works in a regulated IVD environment.
That is a genuinely useful credential for the next step in a regulatory career.
The work itself is structured and process driven. You will run a weekly product rotation: pull the documentation, check it against templates, review GSPR alignment, chase anything missing from R&D or clinical teams, get your mentor’s review at the end of the week. There is cross functional coordination involved too, and you are expected to have a voice, flag problems, and ask questions rather than wait to be directed.
To begin with, the work is administrative and methodical in nature.
If your instinct is research rather than process, this will be a difficult fit.
What they are looking for: a science or molecular background from a QA, R&D or regulatory environment rather than pure academia. Graduate level is fine.
Attention to detail, confidence asking questions across teams, and honest communication.
Cambridge hybrid, 3 days on site. Flexible start times. 37.5 hours per week.
