Electronics Engineer Consultant – Security Clearance – Cambridge
A new design consultancy, based in Cambridge, are currently looking for a Electronics Engineer Consultant to add to the team of experienced experts, specifically with a focus on security cleared projects.
Although this is a new design consultancy, they have the backing of larger companies meaning you still have the job security of working for a large company. You will also have benefits including pension, share purchase schemes, healthcare, life assurance and other excellent benefits not normally available to smaller organisations.
We are looking for an Electronics Engineer who has ideally worked on MOD, Security Clearance or other sensitive technologies. Due to the nature of consultancy services, your electronics experience could be across a number of fields such as RF Engineering, Microwave Electronics, Analogue Electronics, Sensors Technologies, PCB Electronics or other complex electronics design.
It will also be ideal if you have specific Firmware, Embedded or other software experience.
Due to the nature of work, you must already hold or be able to obtain security clearance.
Apart from the benefits, you will be rewarded with an excellent salary, career opportunities and a continued skills training to keep you at the forefront of technologies.
This is a rare opportunity to be involved with a design consultancy at the ground level, meaning future career development will be more likely than with other consultancies or companies. Due to this, I’m expecting a lot of interest in this role. If you are interested in the role, apply now or risk missing out.
For more information, please feel free to call Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices recruitment and Scientific recruitment specialists Newton Colmore Consulting, on +44 121 268 2240 or make an application and one of our team at Newton Colmore Consulting will contact you.

FPGA Electronics Engineer – Defence – Cambridge
I’m supporting a defence company in Cambridge that works on some of the most challenging engineering problems facing UK defence and national security. They’re looking for an FPGA specialist who enjoys getting into the detail, building solutions from first principles and turning complex ideas into working systems that make a real‑world difference.
You’d be joining a team where engineers, scientists and designers collaborate closely, moving quickly from concept to prototype. The work is varied, hands‑on and genuinely meaningful, with projects focused on countering emerging technological and cyber threats. It’s the kind of environment where curiosity is encouraged, technical depth is valued and people take pride in solving problems that matter.
The role spans the full development cycle, from requirements capture through to design, implementation, verification and delivery. You’ll be working with modern FPGA toolchains and contributing to projects that often involve DSP, modelling, embedded systems or advanced communications technologies. Strong experience with VHDL or Verilog is essential, and any exposure to areas such as MATLAB/Simulink, electronics, embedded C/C++, SDRs, radar or communications systems would be a real advantage. They’re open to engineers at different career stages, provided you bring solid fundamentals and a genuine interest in this type of work. Prior defence experience helps but isn’t essential.
The organisation offers a well‑resourced, supportive environment with excellent facilities and a culture that invests in people. Relocation support is available where appropriate. Due to the nature of the projects, you’ll need to be eligible for UK Security Clearance, and the role isn’t open to visa sponsorship.
Interest in this role is expected to be high, so early applications are encouraged.
To discuss the position in more detail, you can contact Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices, Biotech and DeepTech Recruitment at Newton Colmore, on +44 121 268 2240. You can also submit your CV and a member of the team will be in touch to talk through next steps.....Read more...

Employer Description:'It takes a village to raise a child’
A wonderful saying that beautifully captures how an entire community of people must interact with children for them to experience and grow in a safe and healthy environment.
After becoming a mum in 2013, our director, Helen, joined a generation of mothers juggling career and mum life. A careful balancing act which lead her to discover that, without the support of others, life was going to be a real struggle.
Since then her family has grown and she found the need to lean on the local community more and more, bringing her to where she is today – recreating new, a much loved community child care setting.
In October 2023 Jiminy Cricket, a 40 year old setting closed and the wonderful team who have helped care for so many local children were no longer there to support us. An increasingly common and sad situation for smaller independent settings these days.
So here we are, reinventing a much loved local setting for families. Creating an environment that aims to nurture and care for the children of the village in the way we were always meant to….and what a privilege that is.Working Hours :The Nursery is open Monday to Friday 8.00am to 6.00pm

Regulatory Affairs and Quality Assurance Assistant – Medical Devices - Cambridge
Due to the growth of a medical devices company based in Cambridge, there is need for a new Regulatory Affairs and Quality Assurance Assistant to work with and support the company’s Quality Assurance and Regulatory Affairs Manager. The team provide quality assurance and regulatory affairs advise on the creation of new products and the improvement of existing technologies.
It would be highly advantageous if you have knowledge of design processes, but it’s not essential. This team does not just fill out quality assurance and regulatory documents; this is a team where they will be very involved with the R&D team, providing vital advice on the creation of medical devices, and ensuring the team operates within the FDA 510k, ISO 13485, and FDA 21 CFR Part 820 standards.
It would be ideal if you have both quality assurance and regulatory affairs knowledge. However, people have moved into this role from either regulatory affairs or quality assurance background, but with a general knowledge in the other side.
It is essential that you have medical devices knowledge, especially ISO 13485 and FDA 510k knowledge. Although writing submissions will not be a major part of your role, you will relay information to the teams responsible for this, so ideally you will have done this in the past or at least assisted.
Ideally, you will have QMS experience. If you do have this knowledge, I would advise making it clear on your CV as this is highly desirable in this role.
The products this company has been developing are industry-changing and will improve the lives of people around the world.
It is expected that you would hold a 1st or 2:1 degree within an engineering or sciences discipline along with some experience within regulatory affairs or quality assurance. Although experience working within a medical devices R&D or design team is more important than education.
This is a growing company; due to this, they offer career progression, excellent salary, benefits package, the chance to work on life-improving devices, and share options.
If you have regulatory affairs knowledge in the medical devices sector and are looking for a challenging role, then apply now.
I expect a lot of interest in this role, and the company are looking to recruit quickly. So, if you are interested in this role, I suggest applying immediately or risk missing out.

In return, you’ll be rewarded with an excellent starting salary, a comprehensive pension scheme, performance-related bonuses, and access to ongoing career development and skills training. This is a role where your growth is taken seriously, and your contributions are genuinely valued.

Medical Devices – Senior Mechanical Design Engineer – Cambridge
Due to successful growth plans, a Medical Devices organization based in Cambridge is currently seeking a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer to contribute to the development and improvement of life-saving Medical Devices.
Collaborating closely with other industry experts, such as electronics design engineers, software engineers, physicists, and other Medical Devices specialists, you will tackle some of the most complex challenges in the development of new Medical Technologies.
Ideally, you will have a background in developing new Medical Devices throughout the entire design life cycle, adhering to ISO 13485 standards. If you have not worked on Medical Devices, we will consider candidates from other highly regulated industries such as life sciences, robotics, product development, etc.
For the 3D CAD elements of your role, you will primarily use SolidWorks. Familiarity with this tool would be advantageous, but we are open to considering other 3D CAD tools if you have a proven track record of quickly acquiring new skills.
When discussing complex problems, it would be beneficial if the Medical Devices you have worked on have involved fluidics, mechanism design, thermal issues, FEA, or other intricate applications. We do not expect you to have experience in all of these areas; they are just a few examples of the challenges you may encounter.
This company is experiencing growth but remains at a size where your work will significantly impact the company's success and projects. Therefore, we are seeking a team player accustomed to collaborating with diverse individuals both within and outside of the organization.
While continually facing challenges, you will advance your skills at the forefront of the sector. In addition to this, you will receive an excellent starting salary, a bonus (typically around 20%, recently even higher), BUPA healthcare, a pension plan, a generous holiday allowance, and other outstanding benefits.
Salary will be commensurate with experience, and we welcome applications from candidates with a few years of industry experience to those with over twenty years of experience. Finding the right fit is more important to us than a specific number of years of experience.
It is expected that you hold a degree in addition to any industry experience. If you also possess a PhD, it would be welcomed but is not essential.
Interviews will be conducted as soon as a suitable candidate is identified. If you are interested in exploring this role, we recommend submitting your application and CV. Please note that your CV will not be forwarded to the company until after we have discussed the role and the company in detail.
For more information, please feel free to call Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices Recruitment and Scientific Recruitment Specialist at Newton Colmore, at 0121 268 2240. Alternatively, you can submit an application, and a member of our Newton Colmore team will contact you.

Physicist – Defence Systems – Cambridge
A recently established and growing defence company, located in Cambridge, is currently seeking a couple of Physicists to contribute to the invention and development of cutting-edge technologies used in various capacities to ensure the security of defence, aerospace, telecommunications, and other sectors where security is of paramount importance.
You will collaborate with a team of experts, including electronics, engineering, design, embedded systems, and other physicists, to develop these systems. Working alongside this expert team will offer you continuous opportunities for skill development.
Given the diverse range of systems and technologies you will work on, we welcome physicists from various fields, such as microfluidics, sensors, optics, acoustics, electromagnetics, thermal physics, and other complex domains. Ideally, you should be proficient in analytical, numerical, and finite element simulations, as well as hands-on engineering physics for building systems.
With a variety of projects and disciplines to engage in, your work will remain engaging and challenging. The company is dedicated to enhancing your skills and knowledge, ensuring you are well-equipped to work on cutting-edge technologies and innovate new systems.
As the world increasingly adopts smart technologies and artificial intelligence devices, you may also have the opportunity to work on Machine Learning and AI technologies. If you have experience or an interest in these fields, it will be advantageous.
Previous experience in defence, aerospace, or telecommunications is not mandatory; we welcome physicists from all sectors.
Given the sectors you will be working in, the ability to obtain Security Clearance is essential. Typically, this requires being a British citizen without a criminal record or having lived and paid taxes in the UK for more than five consecutive years.
In addition to career development and involvement in complex and innovative projects, you will receive an attractive starting salary, regular pay reviews, bonuses, complimentary meals, free parking, a generous company pension, gym membership, wellness programs, healthcare, dental benefits, and other exceptional perks that are competitive with any UK company.
Due to the complex and inventive nature of the work, we anticipate significant interest in this role. If you are interested, we recommend submitting your application now to avoid missing out.
For further information, please do not hesitate to call Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices Recruitment and Scientific Recruitment Specialist at Newton Colmore, on +44 121 268 2240, or submit an application, and a member of our Newton Colmore team will contact you.

Scrub Nurse - Territory Manager – Manchester – Orthopaedic Sales – North West
Perfect for an Orthopaedic Nurse, Scrub Nurse, ODP or Theatre Practitioner ready to move into sales
This is a rare opportunity for an orthopaedic clinician who wants to step out of the theatre and into a high‑impact commercial role — without starting from scratch. You’ll be taking over a warm, well‑established extremities and trauma territory across the North West, with strong existing relationships and a portfolio that already has real momentum behind it.
You’ll be joining a clinically led organisation that values hands‑on orthopaedic experience just as much as commercial ability. They’re agile, supportive and deeply respected by surgical teams, and they’re looking for someone who understands the rhythm of the theatre, the pressures of trauma cases and the importance of being the calm, knowledgeable presence surgeons can rely on. What you don’t yet know commercially, they will train. What you already know clinically will set you apart from day one.
Your day will still revolve around the theatre, but in a new way. You’ll become the technical partner surgeons trust during foot and ankle trauma procedures, guiding them through complex cases and representing a portfolio known for its quality and performance. You’ll also step into the commercial side: protecting established business, identifying new opportunities, and growing the territory through genuine relationship‑building. You’ll move confidently through hospitals, engaging with surgeons, theatre managers, procurement teams and clinical leads, always with an eye on where the next opportunity sits.
You’ll take ownership of product evaluations, support conversions from first conversation through to procurement approval, and deliver high‑quality training sessions for scrub teams and nursing staff. Your ability to communicate clearly, stay composed under pressure and build rapport quickly will be central to your success.
To thrive here, you’ll bring a few years of orthopaedic theatre experience, whether as a Scrub Nurse, ODP, Theatre Practitioner or similar. Ideally with exposure to trauma, extremities or biologics. You’ll be completely at home in the operating theatre and able to command respect through your clinical knowledge and calm, assured communication. Full commercial experience isn’t essential; what matters is your drive, resilience and appetite to learn how to win in a competitive market. A full UK driving licence and willingness to travel across the region are required.
In return, you’ll receive an excellent starting salary, a company car, phone, laptop, healthcare, income protection, pension and a suite of additional benefits. The company has also recently restructured to create clear, transparent progression pathways, something that genuinely sets them apart in a sector where development is often left to chance.
If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to transition from clinical practice into a commercial role, this is it. Opportunities like this move quickly, and waiting could mean missing out.
To discuss the role in more detail, contact Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices, Biotech and DeepTech Recruitment at Newton Colmore, on +44 121 268 2240. You can also submit your CV and a member of the team will be in touch to guide you through the next steps.....Read more...
