  • Act as senior adviser to executive leadership on regulatory risk, market access, product safety, and quality strategy.
  • Ensure THG Ingenuity remains audit-ready for MHRA, BRC, GMP/GDP, ISO, customer audits, and regulatory inspections.

Regulatory Compliance Oversight

  • Oversee compliance across UK/EU/US/APAC including food law, cosmetics regulations, REACH/CLP, electrical/electronic safety, toy/textile standards, packaging & EPR, import/export requirements and marketplace obligations.
  • Act as WDA(H) Licence Holder and GDP Responsible Person, ensuring compliance with MHRA expectations for medicinal categories.
  • Sign off regulatory documentation including technical files, PIFs, safety assessments, labels, claims, test protocols, certifications, and risk assessments.
  • Provide clarity, interpretation and pragmatic application of regulatory requirements to internal teams and clients.

Responsible Person Capability

  • Act as the named Responsible Person (RP) on the WDA, with ultimate accountability for GDP compliance, MHRA liaison, and the quality and integrity of medicinal products at the Manchester site. Provide expert oversight of pharmaceutical supply chain, quality systems, and regulatory requirements, with authority to make critical decisions to safeguard patient safety and product quality.

Product Quality & Operational Excellence

  • Lead development and continuous improvement of QMS across fulfilment centres and Ingenuity operations.
  • Oversee product testing programmes, quality standards, inbound/outbound processes, and operational product-handling expectations.
  • Drive a culture of product quality, operational accuracy, and risk awareness across fulfilment networks.
  • Maintain executive alignment with COO and provide regular reporting on partnership performance, pipeline, and strategic impact.

Supplier & Manufacturing Compliance

  • Lead supplier assurance programmes across all product categories including audits, onboarding, technical reviews, and ongoing compliance monitoring.
  • Ensure full alignment of manufacturing partners, laboratories and suppliers with THG’s compliance and quality standards.
  • Oversee corrective actions, escalations and performance improvement initiatives.

Governance, Risk, Incident & Crisis Management

  • Own THG’s product safety and compliance risk frameworks, including enterprise-level risk registers. Lead investigations, recalls, withdrawals, incident reporting, CAPAs, and interface with regulators where required. Provide risk-based decision-making that balances regulatory obligations with commercial implications.

Commercial, Client & Tender Leadership

  • Act as the senior compliance and quality contact for major B2B clients, Ingenuity brands, and regulated industry partners. Lead regulatory and technical inputs into public sector tenders (including NHS), global brand RFPs/RFQs, and regulated-category bids. Educate clients on THG’s compliance capability, support onboarding of complex categories, and guide feasibility/go-no-go decisions. Partner with Legal, Commercial and Client teams to negotiate compliance clauses, product safety responsibilities, and quality SLAs.

Team Leadership & Development

  • Build and develop a multidisciplinary Regulatory, Quality & Compliance team spanning consumer goods, food, pharmaceuticals, beauty, electricals, and general merchandise. Create a culture of cross-functional collaboration, pragmatic problem solving, and commercially aware compliance delivery. Oversee prioritisation, resource planning, and continuous improvement of compliance workflows.

Cultural Requirements & Ways of Working

  • Operate with a commercial mindset, enabling growth while ensuring regulatory defensibility and product safety.
  • Promote a culture where teams respect regulatory boundaries while being empowered to find efficient, client-friendly solutions.
  • Model collaborative behaviour across Legal, Fulfilment, Commercial, Operations, Tech and Supply Chain teams.
  • Champion data-driven decision making and structured risk tolerance discussions.

Skills & Experience Required:

  • Extensive experience across multi-category regulatory frameworks (food, beauty, pharmaceuticals, electricals, toys/textiles, FMCG, general merchandise).
  • Proven leadership of multi-disciplinary compliance/quality teams in a global, high-volume environment.
  • Experience as WDA(H) Licence Holder or senior GDP/RP-level pharmaceutical compliance leader.
  • Demonstrated success in supporting large-scale tenders, regulated bids and complex client onboarding.

  • 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.
