Fractional Regulatory Legal Consultant (MedTech / HealthTech)
London-based tech company | Remote | ~1 day per week | c.£150/hour
We’re working with a high-growth, product-led technology company at the intersection of consumer health and proprietary motion-sensing technology.
Their apps have scaled to 15M+ users globally, and they are now entering a critical phase: formal regulatory expansion across the UK and US.
They are looking for an experienced Regulatory Legal Consultant to lead and run this process.
The Role
This is a hands-on, commercially focused regulatory role where you will:
- Lead the UK and US regulatory strategy and registration process
- Advise on product classification (wellness vs medical device)
- Navigate and manage interactions with relevant regulators (e.g. MHRA, FDA)
- Build a practical compliance framework aligned to a scaling tech business
- Coordinate external advisors where needed (legal, regulatory specialists)
- Work closely with the Founder and product team to enable safe, scalable growth
This is not a theoretical advisory role - you’ll be expected to own and drive the process end-to-end.
Ideal Profile
We’re looking for a lawyer who combines regulatory depth with commercial pragmatism:
- Proven experience in MedTech, HealthTech, or Pharma
- Strong understanding of UK and US regulatory pathways (MHRA / FDA)
- Experience with digital health, software, or app-based products highly desirable
- Track record of taking products through regulatory processes, not just advising
- Comfortable operating in a founder-led, fast-moving environment
- Able to balance risk, speed, and commercial objectives
Why this role is interesting
- Work with a product already at global scale (15M+ users)
- Own a high-impact regulatory workstream from day one
- Flexible, fractional engagement (~1 day per week)
- Direct access to Founder and decision-making
- Opportunity to shape how next-generation health technology scales responsibly
Details
- Location: Remote (UK preferred, but flexible)
- Commitment: ~1 day per week (flexible)
- Rate: c.£150/hour (depending on experience)
- Start: ASAP
