Every year, Medical Device companies invest millions in Research & Development.
Brilliant engineers develop innovative technologies.
Scientists solve complex technical challenges.
Teams create products capable of transforming patient care.
Yet the uncomfortable truth is this…
Innovation has no value until it reaches the patient.
The difference between a great idea and a successful medical device is rarely the technology alone. It is the people who can navigate the journey from concept, through development, regulatory approval, manufacturing, and finally into global markets.
That journey is where careers are built.
I’m currently recruiting for a Senior R&D Project & Commercialization Manager for an international Medical Device manufacturer based in County Mayo, Ireland.
This isn’t simply another Project Management role.
This is an opportunity to lead multidisciplinary teams responsible for taking innovative products from New Product Development through to successful global commercialization. The role requires someone who understands that delivering a project isn’t about updating Gantt charts—it’s about aligning Engineering, Quality, Regulatory, Manufacturing, Marketing and Commercial teams behind one common objective.
The successful candidate will be comfortable asking difficult questions.
- Are we solving the right customer problem?
- Are we making decisions based on data?
- Have we identified the risks before they become delays?
- Can this product be manufactured, scaled and launched successfully across multiple markets?
The best Commercialization Leaders don’t simply manage timelines.
They create alignment.
They remove barriers.
They influence without authority.
They make complex programmes look straightforward.
If you’ve spent the last 8-12 years in Medical Device R&D, New Product Development or Project Management, you’ll probably recognise that the most rewarding part of your career hasn’t been writing technical reports or updating project plans.
It’s been watching a product you’ve helped develop being launched globally and knowing patients are benefiting because your team delivered.
This position offers the opportunity to work within an organisation that continues to invest heavily in innovation while giving experienced professionals the autonomy to lead significant cross-functional programmes. With an attractive salary, annual bonus, comprehensive benefits and relocation support, it’s a genuine career move rather than simply another job.
If you’re looking for your next challenge—and you enjoy bringing together technical excellence, commercial thinking and project leadership—I would be delighted to have a confidential conversation.
Sometimes the biggest career move isn’t changing industries.
It’s finding an organisation that trusts you to lead innovation all the way to market.
