  • Monitor and report on compliance status, risks, and actions to internal and external parties
  • Review marketing, legal, and technical content for regulatory alignment (including SDS, labels, and case files)
  • Provide regulatory input during product development and advise on regulatory strategy
  • Support compliance with directives including WEEE, REACH, and RoHS
  • Liaise with global RA teams and work closely with counterparts in the US and APAC
  • Maintain documentation for audit readiness and represent the company during audits

  • A Bachelor's degree in a relevant field (e.g. biology, chemistry, product safety, or life sciences)
  • 3+ years of experience in regulatory affairs within the medical device or IVD industry
  • Solid knowledge of IVD product registrations and EU regulations (esp. IVDR)
  • Experience with ISO 13485; knowledge of WEEE, REACH, and RoHS is a plus
  • Strong communication skills in English (written and spoken)
  • An international outlook and preferably experience in pathology or lab diagnostics


Organization & Offer

Our partner is known for its dedication to precision diagnostics and laboratory innovation. You'll be part of a collaborative and international environment where regulatory integrity and patient impact go hand in hand. This role offers room to shape regulatory strategy across markets and contribute to life-changing healthcare technologies.
