The posting

**Head of Innovation, Director

**Can you turn scientific opportunities into meaningful innovation?

As Head of Innovation you will lead our innovation portfolio and early-stage innovation activities across R&D, turning scientific insight, clinical needs, and commercial opportunities into a focused pipeline of future products and technologies.

This is a Director-level individual contributor position, reporting directly to the VP R&D. The role has no direct reports and will lead through influence in a matrix organization, bringing together R&D, Upstream Product Management, Commercial Development and other functions to evaluate opportunities, make portfolio choices, and move the fittest ideas forward.

Every two seconds, Ferrosan Medical Devices’ products help surgeons and nurses control bleeding and avoid complications in surgical procedures. We make seconds count in surgical care, and we would love to have you join us in shaping what comes next.

**Shape our future innovation portfolio

**You will play a central role in identifying, assessing, and maturing new innovation opportunities. You will connect scientific and technical possibilities with unmet clinical needs, market potential, and our strategic priorities. A key part of your role will be to create focus: building a strong innovation portfolio and driving fact-based decisions on where to invest, what to advance, and when to stop.

**Your role

**As Head of Innovation, you will:

  • Lead the R&D innovation portfolio, setting priorities and driving clear decisions on where to explore, invest, accelerate, partner, or stop
  • Mobilize and motivate scientists and engineers across our competence centers, creating commitment and bringing the right expertise together to advance innovation opportunities in a matrix organization
  • Connect science, clinical needs, and commercial potential, translating insights into compelling innovation opportunities and business rationales
  • Build and leverage our external innovation ecosystem, engaging with start-ups, academia, research institutions, and MedTech/Pharma companies to identify technologies and develop strategic partnerships
  • Create alignment and visibility around the innovation pipeline, communicating priorities, progress, risks, and recommendations to R&D and senior leadership

**Qualifications

**Ideally, you bring:

  • MSc or PhD in biomaterials, chemistry, material sciences, biomedical engineering, pharmaceutical sciences, or a related field
  • Advanced user of AI-enabled ways of working, including generative and agentic AI, with the ability to apply these tools practically to accelerate research, analysis, knowledge synthesis, and innovation
  • Proven experience in the development of Class III medical devices or combination products, ideally including exposure to the US PMA pathway
  • Strong track record in driving innovation and complex R&D programs, from early opportunities through feasibility and development
  • Strong matrix leader, able to mobilize and motivate scientists, engineers, and cross-functional teams without formal authority
  • Highly structured and concise thinker, able to synthesize complex scientific and technical topics and communicate clear conclusions and recommendations to senior stakeholders

The position is based at our headquarters in Søborg, Copenhagen. We welcome international candidates willing to relocate.

**Some of the facts and a little piece of history

**Ferrosan Medical Devices develops and produces a portfolio of medical devices used in surgical care. Our portfolio consists of various hemostatic products to minimize bleeding challenges in surgery and electromechanical medical devices to perform breast biopsies. We are an international company with products registered in more than 100 countries. Our products are marketed in collaboration with global medtech partners. New ideas are developed and matured from the first thought to finished implementation in production. And we manage the business with an uncompromising focus on quality based on current GMP requirements.

**Interested?

**Please submit your cover letter, CV, and any relevant supporting materials by 30 November 2026. We will review applications on an ongoing basis and encourage you to apply as soon as possible.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
