What is Androlabs?
Androlabs is the first pharmaceutical company that is entirely dedicated to men. Founded in February 2021 and headquartered in London, Androlabs is a fast-growing and ambitious scaleup company. Our medicines are commercialised in 20+ countries throughout Europe, the UK and Australia.
What is our mission and how do we work?
Gender disparities in health awareness and access to routine check-ups and treatment can result in excess preventable deaths and illness. Globally, nearly twice as many male deaths are considered preventable compared to females, contributing to the concerning statistic that men live, on average, five years less than women. At Androlabs, our mission is to close the male life expectancy gap by tackling these issues head-on.
We partner with healthcare professionals who treat patients daily and lead initiatives to raise awareness of men’s health, improve education, and remove barriers to care. We have already launched the first-ever men’s health pub, developed a leading patient education platform, built a HCP zone with CPD-accredited learning, convened scientific advisory committee meetings with 17 of Europe’s top KOLs, and facilitated publications that have evolved the field of men’s health treatment.
By putting patients first and adopting a science-led approach, we are reshaping the traditional pharma model to deliver better outcomes across men’s health.
We are a diverse team of ~40 people are based across 7 countries, and speak more than 14 languages. We are profitable, growing, and have big ambitions to create a world-leading men's health company that makes a difference in society.
At Androlabs, our core values— Knowledge and Transparency, Agency, First Principle Thinking & Humility —guide our actions every day. They shape our daily operations and interactions. Whether it’s empowering a colleague with the right information, proactively addressing challenges, or embracing feedback, we live these values every day to ensure that Androlabs is a place where innovation thrives, and excellence is the norm.
Androlabs is part of Tithonia Group, an entrepreneurial life sciences company.
The Role
This is the most senior regulatory role in the business. You will report directly to the co-founder in charge of Portfolio, and own the complete regulatory lifecycle across our portfolio — from MAH and PV compliance to variation strategy, new product applications, labelling oversight, CMC sign-off, and budget management. You'll lead a small team and a network of external partners, and you'll be the person who fills expertise gaps — including your own — by sourcing and directing the right specialists.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This is not a coordination role. There is no larger regulatory function above you. You make the decisions, you approve the submissions, and the buck stops with you.
What do you need to do to win?
- Own every regulatory decision and submission across the portfolio.
- Keep us compliant, strategically sharp, and commercially relevant.
- Build a well-oiled regulatory machine from the inside.
Who will you work with?
Our Co-founders, the CMC team, Quality team and our Regulatory Affairs Associate, as well as external regulatory partners and contractors, and health authorities across EU and UK markets.

- Coordinate with the CMC & Innovation Manager to align change implementation plans with regulatory timelines
- Establish and manage a network of regulatory contractors and firms; onboard, govern, and hold partners accountable for delivery quality
New Product Applications and Line Extensions

- Own dossier planning and compilation: content scope, module responsibilities, authoring resources, query management through to approval
- Evaluate line extension opportunities and advise on regulatory feasibility; coordinate with Medical, Clinical, and CMC from inception
Leadership and Authoring Quality
- Lead, manage, and hold accountable the regulatory team including direct reports, contractors, and external partners
