Bedford, United Kingdom SPD Development Company Ltd Full time

SPD Swiss Precision Diagnostics GmbH (SPD) is a world leader in the research, design and supply of advanced consumer diagnostic products and we believe we were the first in the world to receive IVDR certificates, for Quality Management System and Class B self-test devices. SPD was formed in 2007 as a joint venture between Procter & Gamble (P&G) and Alere (now Abbott) and our brands, such as Clearblue, are recognised the world over as providing accurate home pregnancy and fertility monitoring tests.

We are currently searching for a Regulatory Affairs Specialist - Innovation to join our Regulatory Affairs team based at our Innovation Centre in Bedford, UK. This role will be a Fixed Term Contract for 18 months and will follow a hybrid working pattern.

The Regulatory Affairs Specialist role supports SPDs product portfolio transition from IVDD to IVDR, and also the regulatory strategy and implementation for assigned new product development projects as directed by the Regulatory Affairs Manager - Innovation and the Regulatory Director.

The role fundamentally provides technical regulatory knowledge and guidance on global regulations, specific to In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices (IVD) and Medical Devices (MD). As part of this, the role examines new legislation and implements into processes if required, with initial focus on requirements as part of the IVDD to IVDR transition. The role will support new product concept work and business development (third party sourcing) projects. The role holder advises teams on the regulatory environment and requirements associated with the products being investigated but must also be focussed on identifying compliant solutions to regulatory problems that represent the least burdensome route.
