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.

Medical Devices Consultant - Senior Mechanical Engineer - Cambridge
Due to the growth of a leading Medical Devices organisation, we are currently seeking a Senior Mechanical Engineer, Project Manager, Medical Devices Inventor, or Mechanical Design Consultant for a newly approved role.
The company is based in Cambridge and boasts some of the most impressive labs globally, which they are currently enhancing even further.
You will collaborate with other experts in Medical Devices who have backgrounds in Mechanical Engineering, Mechanical Design, Electronics Design, Electronics Engineering, Physical Engineering, Biomedical Sciences, and various other skills essential for inventing Medical Technology.
Consequently, teamwork will be crucial.
In this role, you will lead projects, necessitating experience as a consultant, project manager, or another role involving interactions with third parties.
Additionally, you will apply your skills hands-on, directly contributing to the development of new Medical Devices.
We require several years of experience in Mechanical Design of Medical Devices.
Familiarity with any 3D CAD tool is acceptable, as we understand that you can be trained on the necessary tools when required.
However, knowledge of SolidWorks would be advantageous.
Most individuals in similar roles hold a degree in a Mechanical Engineering field, but experience takes precedence.
In terms of experience, we welcome candidates ranging from those stepping up to a Senior Mechanical Engineer role to individuals with several years of experience as a Medical Devices Consultant or Senior Mechanical Engineer.
This organisation has an outstanding track record of fostering continuous learning to keep you at the forefront of the Medical Devices sector.
Consequently, opportunities for career and skills development are always available.
In addition to these benefits, you will receive an excellent salary (commensurate with your level of experience), a substantial bonus, a generous pension plan, healthcare coverage, complimentary meals throughout the day, life assurance, access to social clubs, wellness programs, an onsite gym, and other exceptional perks that are not commonly offered by most companies.
We anticipate substantial interest in this role, so if you are interested, we recommend submitting your application promptly.
The organisation is open to candidates with varying levels of experience.
If you possess some of the required skills but not all, it may still be worth applying as training could be provided (though you must have industry experience as a Mechanical Engineer or Mechanical Designer for Medical Devices as a minimum).
For more information, please feel free to call Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices Recruitment and Scientific Recruitment Specialist at Newton Colmore, at +44 121 268 2240.
