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...
Medical Devices Project Leader – Cambridge
We are seeking a dynamic and driven Project Leader to join our innovative medical devices team based in Cambridge. This is a unique opportunity to lead cutting-edge development projects that directly impact patient care and improve lives. You’ll be at the heart of a multidisciplinary environment, guiding cross-functional teams through the full product lifecycle—from concept to commercialisation.
The ideal candidate will bring proven experience in project leadership within the medical technology or life sciences sector, with a strong grasp of regulatory pathways and product development processes. You’ll be comfortable navigating complex technical challenges, managing timelines and budgets, and communicating effectively with stakeholders at all levels.
A strong academic foundation is essential. We’re looking for someone with a degree in a discipline that naturally leads into medical device design—mechanical engineering, electronics engineering, biomedical engineering, or a closely related field. Your technical background will allow you to engage meaningfully with design teams and contribute to the development of robust, compliant, and innovative solutions.
Mentorship is a key part of this role. We believe in nurturing talent and fostering growth, and you’ll be expected to support and guide junior members of staff, helping them develop both technically and professionally. Your ability to lead by example and share knowledge will be instrumental in building a high-performing, collaborative team culture.
What sets you apart is not just your professional expertise, but your mindset. We value individuals who approach problems with curiosity and creativity. If you have a technical hobby—whether it’s tinkering with electronics, building software, or engineering side projects—that demonstrates your passion for problem solving, we see that as a distinct advantage.
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.

Principal Usability Engineer – Implantable Medical Devices – Oxford
We are working with a pioneering medical technology company in Oxfordshire to recruit a Principal Usability Engineer who will lead the design and evaluation of intuitive, user-centred implantable devices. This is a rare opportunity to shape how surgical teams and clinicians interact with transformative technologies, ensuring that every touchpoint is purposeful, accessible, and grounded in real-world clinical workflows.
The role is based in Oxfordshire and offers hybrid working, with three days on-site including Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Occasional travel to partner sites across Europe will be required, so a willingness to travel is essential. This is a direct hire with a medical devices company, not a design consultancy.
You will champion usability across the full product lifecycle, from early concept development to post-market evaluation. Working closely with engineering, clinical, and design teams, you will ensure that user needs drive design decisions rather than simply meeting regulatory compliance. Your work will span formative and summative usability studies, interface refinement, and continuous evaluation of user experience across a portfolio of implantable technologies.
You will lead usability studies in clinical and simulated environments, translate user insights into actionable design inputs, and collaborate with industrial designers, software engineers, and systems teams to refine workflows and interactions. You will contribute to usability documentation for regulatory submissions, represent usability in design reviews and stakeholder presentations, and mentor internal teams while managing external partners.
To succeed in this role, you will bring a strong background in usability engineering, UX design, or human-computer interaction within regulated environments. Experience with surgical or implantable medical technologies is highly desirable. You should be confident in leading usability studies, synthesising complex user data into clear design direction, and communicating effectively across multidisciplinary teams. Familiarity with tools such as Axure, Figma, or Adobe XD is beneficial, alongside a proactive mindset and a deep empathy for users.
This is more than a technical leadership position. It is a chance to influence how innovative medical technologies are experienced in real-world clinical settings. You will be joining a company that values design thinking, continuous learning, and meaningful impact.
The role offers a competitive package including shares or equity, life assurance, pension, private healthcare, income protection, and an employer discount scheme—benefits more commonly found in larger organisations.

Principal Human Factors Engineer – Implantable Medical Devices - Oxford
We’re partnering with a pioneering medical technology company to recruit a Principal Human Factors Engineer who will shape how clinicians and surgical teams interact with transformative implantable devices. This is a rare opportunity to lead usability engineering across the full product lifecycle, embedding human-centred design into every stage of development and ensuring that systems are safe, effective, and intuitive to use.
The role is based in Oxfordshire and offers hybrid working, with three days on-site including Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Occasional travel to third-party sites across Europe will be required, so a willingness to travel is essential. This is a direct hire with a medical devices company — not a design consultancy.
In this role, you’ll be responsible for developing and delivering the company’s usability strategy in line with international standards and regulatory frameworks. You’ll lead formative and summative studies in clinical and simulated environments, translating user insights into actionable design inputs and risk management decisions. You’ll collaborate across engineering, clinical, regulatory, and quality teams to embed usability as a guiding design principle, not just a compliance checkbox.
You’ll take ownership of the usability engineering file, contribute to global submissions, and represent human factors in audits, design reviews, and stakeholder presentations. Your work will span cadaver lab studies, system integration testing, and continuous evaluation of user experience across a portfolio of neuromodulation technologies. You’ll also mentor internal teams, manage external partners, and help foster a culture of user advocacy and design excellence.
To succeed in this role, you’ll bring a strong background in human factors engineering for regulated medical devices, ideally with experience in surgical or implantable systems. You’ll be comfortable leading usability studies, navigating international regulatory expectations, and translating complex user needs into clear design requirements. A proactive mindset, excellent communication skills, and a deep empathy for users will be key to your success.
This is more than a technical leadership role — it’s a chance to influence how innovative medical technologies are experienced in real-world clinical settings. If you’re passionate about usability, design, and making a meaningful impact, we’d love to hear from you.
Alongside the opportunity to lead impactful work, this role offers a competitive package including shares/equity, life assurance, pension, private healthcare, income protection, and an employer discount scheme — benefits more commonly found in larger organisations.
