Biocides Regulatory Team Leader
Our client is a respected international regulatory consultancy recognised for its scientific expertise and partnership with major players in the chemical and biocidal sectors. With continued growth across its European operations, the company is seeking an experienced Biocides Regulatory Team Leader to oversee a talented group of regulatory specialists managing submissions, renewals, and complex biocidal projects under the EU Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR 528/2012).
This role combines strategic leadership with hands-on technical involvement, offering an
opportunity to lead, mentor, and shape a dynamic regulatory team in an environment that values precision, scientific excellence, and collaboration.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
This position offers the rare chance to lead a team of between 6 to 8 that is central to delivering biocidal regulatory services across Europe. You’ll not only guide day-to-day operations but also influence strategic direction — ensuring high-quality project delivery while fostering an environment where technical skill, compliance, and innovation thrive.
The company’s growth is backed by a strong reputation in scientific consulting, built on decades of practical expertise and trusted client relationships. They are continuously investing in new technologies, digital tools, and team development to stay ahead in the evolving regulatory landscape. You’ll benefit from a culture that encourages leadership initiative, autonomy in decision-making, and genuine cross-functional collaboration.
Furthermore, this is a fully remote opportunity designed for professionals who value flexibility without losing the sense of team connection. You’ll be part of a forward-thinking business where your input directly impacts client outcomes, company performance, and your own career trajectory.
