Job Title: Product Lead, Regulatory Innovation & Development

Job Type: Full-time, Permanent Position

Location: West London, UK

Remuneration: Competitive salary and package

Cpl Life Sciences is partnering with a stealth-mode AI biotech operating at the intersection of AI and drug development, with a focus on AAV, CNS and neurological disease programmes.

This is a unique opportunity to lead the development and implementation of AI-enabled approaches across Regulatory, Quality and Development functions, supporting innovative therapeutic programmes from early development through to registration.

This position is the first of this type into the business so we are looking for a very experienced professional with ideally both drug development and AI-related experience. This role is part of the AI innovation leadership team.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
