Job Description:

Regulatory Affairs Officer

Location: Paddington, London (Hybrid Working)

Department: Medical & Regulatory Affairs, UK & Ireland

About Ipsen

At Ipsen, we are committed to improving the lives of patients through innovative medicines in areas of significant unmet need. Whilst this role will work across all Ipsen products, oncology is a key strategic focus, and this role offers the opportunity to support a portfolio of established and emerging oncology therapies that make a meaningful difference to patients across the UK and Ireland.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a Regulatory Affairs Officer to join our UK & Ireland Medical and Regulatory Affairs team. This role offers broad exposure across Regulatory Affairs, Quality, and Compliance, supporting both marketed and pipeline products, with a strong focus on our oncology portfolio.

Reporting to the Senior Regulatory Affairs Manager, you will play an important role in ensuring regulatory compliance, supporting licence maintenance activities, and helping to bring innovative medicines to healthcare professionals and patients, with an initial focus in our oncology portfolio.

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.
