Quality Assurance Specialist – Cambridge
A growing Medical Devices company based in Cambridge is currently looking for a new Quality Assurance Specialist to assist in the development of the QMS system for ISO 13485 standards. They are open to candidates from alternative sectors, allowing for ISO 13485 standards training.
You will also be creating and managing technical files for several Medical Devices lines, including Class I, Class IIa and Class IIb Medical Devices. You’ll collaborate with a number of Medical Devices experts, but you will be the sole person focusing on Quality Assurance duties. However, you will receive Quality Assurance assistance from the parent company’s Quality Assurance Manager. Due to this, we are open to candidates who only have a couple of years of experience of ISO 9001 or QMS, but also keen to hear from people with more experience.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone a couple of years into their career and looking for more responsibility to lead the development of a QMS system, or for someone who is looking for a route into the Medical Devices sector under ISO 13485 standards. Due to the active work in setting up the QMS system, you will need to be in the office daily; however, over time there should be the opportunity for hybrid working.
It is expected that you would hold a degree in a subject that has led you into a Quality Assurance, Quality Engineering, or Design Assurance role.
Apart from having a Quality Assurance background, it would also be highly advantageous if you have a good understanding of Regulatory Affairs.
Part of your role will involve working alongside the manufacturing teams for these medical devices. Due to this, it would be highly beneficial if your Medical Devices Quality Assurance experience came from a Quality Engineering background, although this is not essential.
I anticipate a lot of interest in this role, so if you are interested, I suggest making an application now or risk missing out.
For more information, please feel free to call Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices recruitment, Science recruitment and Biotech 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.....Read more...

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.

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.
