The Director, Regulatory Platforms holds strategic oversight and operational accountability for the technology systems that power CSL's Global Regulatory Affairs and Safety organisation including Regulatory Information Management, Submissions Management, Submissions Archive, Publishing, Labelling, Regulatory Intelligence, and Collaboration. This is a role that sits at the intersection of regulatory operations and technology execution: understanding not just how these platforms work, but how they need to work for a regulatory organisation to function without friction.
Based in Maidenhead, UK (Hybrid, 3 days a week)
Why It Matters
Regulatory technology is invisible when it works and immovable when it doesn't. Submissions have deadlines that don't move for system downtime, and inspectors expect validated, audit-ready environments as a matter of course. This role exists to make sure that reliability is never in question serving as the primary digital business partner to the Head of Regulatory Operations and Global Regions, and as the escalation point when platforms need to flex, scale, or simply hold steady under pressure.
