Commercial Associate – Medical Technology

Watford
3 weeks ago
Create job alert

We’re two early-stage medical technology startups — Precure and Pluto — building the future of healthcare.
Our products combine software and medical innovation to help clinicians, researchers, and health organisations deliver better outcomes.

We’re at the exciting part — building, experimenting, and scaling. We already have partners in Portugal and are expanding across Europe. To help us grow, we’re looking for a Commercial Associate who’s ready to get stuck in, take ownership, and help turn great technology into real-world impact.

This will not be an easy position. You'll have to wear multiple hats but be at the cutting edge of an industry thats growing globally and be able to grow with the business. You'll get exposure of the full business process from conversations about company incorporation to negotiating rates with government bodies.

The Opportunity

You’ll sit at the intersection of sales, partnerships, and strategy — working directly with founders to help shape how our businesses grow.
Your day-to-day might include:



Structuring pilots and partnerships with hospitals, clinics, or research partners

*

Running demos and presentations that bring our software to life

*

Managing early sales conversations, from first contact to close

*

Building and nurturing relationships with clinicians, partners, and investors

*

Feeding insights from the field back into product development and go-to-market plans

You’ll be a key part of a small team — learning how to build, sell, and scale an early-stage tech company from the ground up.

Who You Are

We’re not looking for a traditional salesperson — we’re looking for someone who’s curious, entrepreneurial, and genuinely interested in how technology can change healthcare.

You might be:

*

1–3 years out of university, or more established and looking to move into startups

*

Experienced (or just naturally good) at building relationships and communicating clearly

*

Comfortable around technology and software, even if you’re not an engineer

*

Energised by problem-solving and making things happen with limited resources

*

Happy operating in a fast-moving, sometimes ambiguous environment

*

Portuguese-speaking or experienced in Portuguese markets (a big plus)

What We Offer

*

£30,000–£50,000 depending on experience

*

Direct access to founders and real ownership of projects

*

Flexible working (we’re a distributed team across the UK and EU)

*

Fast learning curve in medtech, business development, and software innovation

*

A front-row seat in two growing startups with international reach

Medical Technology Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the medical technology (MedTech) jobs market in the UK is changing fast. Hospitals and health systems are under pressure to do more with less. Diagnostics and devices are becoming smarter, more connected and more regulated. AI, robotics and remote monitoring are no longer “future tech” – they’re being built into mainstream care pathways. At the same time, budgets are tight, funding cycles are uneven and some healthtech start-ups are consolidating or being acquired. That means fewer vague “innovation” roles and more focus on medical technology jobs that directly support regulatory approval, patient safety, NHS adoption and commercial growth. Whether you are a MedTech job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter building teams for medical device, diagnostics or digital health companies, this guide breaks down the key medical technology hiring trends for 2026.

Medical Technology Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK medical technology hiring has shifted from title‑led CV screens to capability‑driven assessments that emphasise regulatory‑aware product delivery (QMS, ISO 13485), software lifecycle & risk (IEC 62304/14971), usability (IEC 62366), clinical & regulatory strategy (MDR/UKCA), device cyber security & privacy, and measurable patient/clinical and commercial impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for SaMD engineers, AI/ML in medical devices, product & quality engineers, regulatory/clinical affairs specialists, validation/verification, manufacturing/operations, and digital health roles. Who this is for: Software/firmware engineers in medtech, SaMD/AI engineers, systems & verification engineers, quality & regulatory affairs (QARA), clinical evaluation/PMCF specialists, human factors engineers, medical device cyber security & privacy, test/validation, manufacturing & operations, field/service engineers, and medtech product managers in the UK.

Why Medical Technology Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Medical technology (medtech) is transforming healthcare in the UK — from wearable sensors to AI diagnostic tools, from surgical robots to telemedicine platforms. Advances in hardware, software, data and connectivity are enabling more personalized, efficient and accessible care. But with great power comes great responsibility. As medical devices and health technologies enter hospitals, clinics and consumers’ homes, professionals in this domain must master much more than engineering and algorithms. They must also understand law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. That is, medtech careers are now deeply multidisciplinary. In this article, we explore why medical technology careers in the UK are becoming more multidisciplinary, how these five allied fields now intersect with medtech work, and what job-seekers and employers should do to succeed in this evolving ecosystem.
