Scope of work

The end partner, a global medical device manufacturer, needed multiple senior regulatory affairs managers to help prepare for the IVDR and MDR regulation changes. We were the preferred supplier of their official FSP provider, and so, were brought on board to help complete the hires. This was an EMEA wide project, with candidates required in countries such as Egypt and Slovakia.

The solution

We deployed a dedicated, expert sourcing team that had an extensive network of suitable and qualified candidates, with a project manager based in Basel to oversee the delivery. We conducted a well-executed social media campaign to secure candidates in the more niche territories, and utilised specialist recruitment tools such as LinkedIn Recruiter, giving us unrivalled access to the market. We also created a step-by-step guide in-house to help companies navigate through the regulation changes. This demonstrated that we fully understood the requirements of our partner, and were able to advise candidates accordingly. We offered a fixed fee programme with an innovative payment structure that suited our partner’s needs, due to the high fluctuation in salaries across the territories.

The outcome

We successfully placed 14 candidates in various locations including: Dubai, Egypt, Slovakia, Italy, France, Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.

The medical devices manufacturer was extremely well prepared for the transition of MDR regulations and continues to consult our e-book for advice.
