This organisation pride themselves on being home to the most talented and switched-on engineering experts in the UK. Residing in a countryside location in Cambridgeshire, with excellent road and rail links, they have also put together an extremely desirable package for the people who join them.

You will play a key role in their health/medical devices team as a client facing project lead, using your insight into the healthcare market to uncover new business prospects and areas to develop medical technology consultancy services. There will be opportunities to develop your career into a leadership role as you grow in experience.

This is not your run of the mill product development consultancy; the breakthrough technologies that you and a multi-disciplinary team work on together will be real life-changing inventions which will influence health and patient care.

This role will be mainly office based with ad hoc remote working.

The important bits:

  • An impressive academic record from a respected university or degree course in Mechanical Engineering or similar. A PhD would also be advantageous.
  • At least 2 years' postgrad experience (we will consider candidates who have just completed their PhD).
  • Ideally from a medical devices background, but not essential
  • Experience in any of the following areas would be highly desirable:
    • Surgical robotics or instrumentation
    • Non-invasive surgery including ultrasound
    • Eye care
  • You should have experience of leading projects from beginning to end
  • Knowledge of fluid dynamics
  • Excellent client facing skills

What's on offer for you:

  • Excellent salary in line with your experience
  • Annual bonus
  • Employer pension contribution of 12% of pensionable pay
  • Private medical cover for the family
  • Free lunch and refreshments
  • Life insurance worth 6x salary
  • 25 days holiday
  • Enhanced maternity and paternity leave, with the option to return part-time for a year
  • Brand-new purpose-built company site with state of the art facilities, including on-site gym, restaurant and coffee shop
  • Electric car leasing scheme
  • Cycle to work scheme
  • Season ticket loan
  • A range of fun activities including squash, Zumba, yoga, arts and crafts, running clubs - even a company rock band!
  • Discount on memberships for local sports facilities and theatre discounts
  • A comprehensive relocation package
  • A dedicated career coach and the scope to continuously develop and broaden your expertise
  • Autonomy and flexibility to give you an effective work-life balance
  • Flat hierarchy across the organisation

For a confidential discussion, we would love to hear from you!
