TTP is an employee-owned technology and product development consultancy, with a 40-year track record of helping ambitious clients solve complex technical challenges and bring innovative, commercially successful solutions to market.

Our working culture encourages entrepreneurship, shared ideas and technical collaboration, while providing you with the freedom to do your best work.

Role profile:

You will lead complex projects with multiple stakeholders and pioneer collaborative relationships, both internally and externally.

Key responsibilities:

• Definition of full lifecycle product development projects, from early-stage technology and product studies through to market launch.
• Act as a subject matter expert for both colleagues and our clients on the necessary project goals and milestones for regulated environments.
• Use of relevant literature, risk mitigation and the correct balance of regulated processes in product development lifecycles.
• Engage colleagues, coach and lead with informal authority to support their technical development.
• Build strong client relationships by establishing trust and credibility; enable open discussions about the details and alignment of product or project delivery throughout the full development lifecycle. Assure client satisfaction and generate follow-on opportunities for future projects.

 

Your background:

• Established in your project leadership career, you will have led on development of Class II medical devices, or other systems in a regulated and safety critical environment, from proof of concept through to scaled manufacturing with a sound understanding of ISO13485 including regulatory submissions in the US and/or EU.
• Minimum of an MSc in a relevant discipline, along with 7 years + of relevant industry exposure.
• Background in a relevant technical field, with a broad interdisciplinary understanding, able to shape system architectures and development strategy for complex electro-mechanical products.
• Accustomed to nuance in your interactions with project teams as well as clients and external collaborators. Able to employ influence and technical detail where appropriate, excite and energise your colleagues, and build consensus to achieve desired outcomes. 
• You work creatively and efficiently to understand client pain-points and suggest elegant solutions to often complex problems, with the ability to enhance and defend project proposals.
• Strong communication ability, incorporating the credibility to explain projects and processes to varying audiences and skilled at listening to and assimilating the views of diverse stakeholders.
