Regulatory Affairs Recruitment
What is Regulatory Affairs?
Regulatory Affairs experts deal with the regulations, laws, and guidelines that govern industries such as pharmaceuticals, medical devices, food and cosmetics, biologics, and veterinary products.
Additionally, it also involves coordinating and liaising with regulatory agencies to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements for drug or product development, clinical trials, approvals, and post-approval activities such as labelling, advertising, and manufacturing quality control.
Lastly, those working in this sector ensure that products are safe and effective for human use and are produced under safe and controlled conditions.
Our Experience
Scienta was built on a background of regulatory affairs recruitment, with our three founders working within the sector before deciding to start their own business.
Since then, we have continued to build our skills internally as well as our relationships with talent in the field. We now have a strong network of highly skills professionals as well as a team dedicated to hiring within regulatory affairs.
