Regulatory Compliance MD
Navigating policies and remaining compliant in an ever-changing world is extremely challenging, and the life sciences is a prime example of where this challenge can affect the wider world. The life sciences industry accounts for the health and wellbeing of a global humanity, and in doing so, they need to ensure that every product and device entering the market is both safe and effective.
The regulatory compliance MDR rule is a piece of European legislation that oversees the production and release of medical devices – the rule is in place to ensure that every new medical device is safe for application per individual use. For companies manufacturing said medical devices, they will need to add a person responsible for regulatory compliance MDR to their team. This professional (whose title is usually abbreviated to PRRC) is responsible for piloting the manufacturing and testing processes in line with the MDR regulations. This includes checking whether or not the device conforms with the established set of regulations, maintaining and developing the technical documents related to the manufacturing processes and device, performing post-market audits and surveillance, and overseeing any quality management systems, to name a few.
Generally, a PRRC will have a specialised degree in a relevant life sciences field, but not all regulatory affairs jobs will require this – four years of experience in medical services or other compliance roles could make for a suitable candidate in many instances. This role is essential in a company’s efforts to remain compliant while bringing new devices to the market, and it will likely be one that’s hard to fill in today’s talent-short market. Thankfully, BioTalent are here to help. We have the means, the contacts, and the passion required to find the best compliancy candidates for the job at hand.

Life Sciences in London
London is overflowing with opportunity for those wishing to flourish in the wonderful world of the life sciences. Aside from being the best city in the world, (probably) London boasts some of the top bioscience courses found anywhere, such as the Pharmacology programme at UCL, or the Medicine course at Imperial College. The life sciences are closely intertwined with London’s long history of meaningful advancement and discovery, and the vast array of exciting life science jobs reflect this.
Suffice to say, you can find plenty of opportunities through the life sciences in London. The market is thriving, and London is uniquely positioned to lead the charge. We have seen a megalithic surge in the industry’s popularity and visibility in the post-COVID climate, and a rise in popularity means more funding and even more opportunity for development. The life sciences consistently stand at the forefront of discovery, of healthcare, societal wellbeing, and the future of a global humanity, making for a truly exciting field of work.
In fields as impactful as life sciences, (of which there are not many) consistent development is critical. For businesses to remain relevant, sustainable, desirable, and effective in what is undoubtably a fast-moving industry, placing an emphasis on facing the future should be part of the day plan. Some of the biggest names in the life sciences field operate out of London and the surrounding areas, (AstraZeneca, Quell Therapeutics, Touchlight, Pulmocide) and there are plenty of visionary startups bursting into life too, marking a fantastic opportunity for anyone hoping to make an impact as they grow alongside a high-potential enterprise.
