Supplier Quality Engineer - Femtech - Oxford
A well‑funded and rapidly scaling Femtech innovator in Oxford is seeking a Supplier Quality Engineer to strengthen and develop its supplier base, ensuring that all components and materials entering and leaving the business meet the highest standards. Newton Colmore is recruiting for this role exclusively, so applications must be made directly through us.
In this position, you will take ownership of the continual evaluation of existing suppliers, the identification and onboarding of new partners, and the ongoing monitoring of supplier performance. You will ensure compliance with ISO 13485, lead CAPA activity, apply your quality expertise to design‑for‑manufacture considerations and support the wider supplier quality function as the company scales.
This role offers significantly better balance than most Supplier Quality positions. Travel will account for only around 30% of your time, compared with the typical 50-80% seen across the industry. The position is also hybrid, allowing you to work from home two days per week, giving you greater flexibility while still remaining closely connected to the team and manufacturing environment.
Ideally, you will be a qualified Lead Auditor with experience working within an ISO 13485‑compliant environment. However, we are also open to candidates from other highly regulated sectors such as biotech or aerospace.
The technology being developed is genuinely transformative within women's health, with the potential to improve outcomes and quality of life for thousands of people worldwide. The company has secured significant investment due to the success of its platform, providing long‑term stability and a strong foundation for continued growth.
In return, you will receive an excellent starting salary, private healthcare, income protection, life assurance, a pension scheme and a generous holiday allowance, alongside the opportunity to contribute to a groundbreaking Femtech innovation.
Interest in this role is expected to be high. If this opportunity aligns with your experience and ambitions, we encourage you to apply promptly.
