Evinova is seeking an entrepreneurial, AI-fluent Product Director to take ownership of a core product area, building it from the ground up with AI at its foundation. This is a founding product leadership role: you will define the vision, strategy, and roadmap for an AI-native product that fundamentally changes how clinical development and clinical operations teams work---designing for the end user first, enabling seamless, collaborative workflows, and driving connectivity across Evinova's modules so that the platform works as one. As Product Director, you will operate with significant autonomy and act as the general manager for your product area at Evinova. This is an individual contributor role: you will not have direct reports, but you will lead and inspire a matrixed, cross-functional team---engineering, design, data science, and commercial---through vision, influence, and clarity. You will identify whitespace, validate opportunities directly with end users and customers, ship V1 products, and iterate relentlessly---embedding AI and machine learning into every layer of the product build, maintenance, and experience, and driving connectivity across Evinova's modules so workflows flow seamlessly for clinical development and clinical operations teams. This role requires a builder who thrives in ambiguity and brings the conviction to create something new within a world-class life sciences software organization.

Partner with commercial to ensure the product does not over-fit to any one customer. Iterate relentlessly in pursuit of product-market fit., • Serve as the strategic product leader across the organization, aligning engineering, design, data science, and commercial around a unified product vision., • Communicate product strategy, progress, and trade-offs to Evinova's executive leadership and key enterprise customers., • Define and own success metrics---adoption, engagement, revenue contribution, clinical trial cycle-time reduction---and drive data-informed prioritization., • Treat your product area as your own business---own the P&L mindset, make resource trade-offs, and drive measurable commercial outcomes., • Navigate the tension between speed-to-market and regulatory compliance (GxP, 21 CFR Part 11, GDPR, HIPAA)., • Cultivate strategic partnerships with data providers and standards bodies (CDISC, HL7 FHIR) to accelerate Evinova's product capabilities., • Champion a culture of experimentation, intellectual honesty, and continuous learning within your product area and across the broader Evinova team., • 8 years of product management experience, with at least 3 years in a director-level or senior product leadership capacity owning a product area end-to-end., • Domain experience in clinical trials or life sciences. You bring a deep understanding of the clinical development and clinical operations personas, know the clinical ecosystem (EDC, CDMS, CTMS, eTMF), and can engage credibly with clinical operations leaders, medical directors, biostatisticians, data managers, and regulatory professionals., • Demonstrated entrepreneurial track record: you have taken at least one product from zero to one---as a founder, early-stage PM, or intrapreneur within a larger organization. You can point to products you conceived, shipped, and scaled., • Deep, hands-on experience building AI/ML-powered products. You understand model development lifecycles, training data strategies, prompt engineering, evaluation frameworks, and the unique UX challenges of AI-driven features. AI fluency is non-negotiable for this role., • Proven ability to operate in enterprise B2B SaaS environments, including navigating complex stakeholder landscapes, long sales cycles, and platform-level product decisions., • Strong technical acumen: comfortable partnering directly with engineers and data scientists, reviewing technical specifications, and contributing to architectural trade-off decisions., • You use AI tools daily in your own workflow---for research, analysis, writing, prototyping, and decision-making---and can articulate how AI is transforming product development practices., • You can evaluate AI/ML model outputs, reason about precision/recall trade-offs, and make informed product decisions around model thresholds, confidence scoring, and human-in-the-loop design patterns., • You maintain a current and informed perspective on the AI landscape---foundation models, agentic AI, retrieval-augmented generation, fine-tuning---and have a point of view on how these capabilities apply to regulated industries like clinical research., • Experience as a founder or co-founder of a technology company, or as the first product hire at an early-stage start-up., • Working knowledge of clinical trial data standards (CDISC SDTM/ADaM, CDASH) and regulatory submission workflows.

In-person working gives us the platform we need to connect, work at pace and challenge perceptions. That's why we work, on average, a minimum of three days per week from the office. But that doesn't mean we're not flexible. We balance the expectation of being in the office while respecting individual flexibility. Join us in our unique and ambitious world.

Interim General Manager Operations Cambridgeshire | Equivalent to £85,000 to £95,000 per annum, pro rata | Minimum three months with review | Possibility of a permanent appointment If you are between roles, working a short notice period, or your role is at risk of redundancy, this is worth reading. A privately owned, multi-site logistics business needs an experienced operations leader to hold and steady its operation while it completes a permanent appointment. It needs somebody who can start quickly and who knows what they are doing. The organisation A long established, privately owned logistics business specialising in food and food ingredients, operating from three accredited sites with warehousing, transport and contract packing. It is profitable, conservatively financed and growing, with a stated plan to double the size of its logistics operation over the next three years. The role You would lead the whole operation across the three sites: warehousing, transport, contract packing, quality and compliance, reporting directly to the Chief Executive. You would manage the operating budget, support the site management teams, and be the point of decision and escalation they need. The emphasis is continuity rather than transformation. The permanent appointee will own the longer term agenda. Your job is to hold the operation steady, protect the standards, resource the seasonal peak properly, and hand over honestly to whoever follows. That includes maintaining accreditation without adverse finding, upholding health and safety across warehousing and transport, and ensuring the operator licence obligations continue to be met. What we are looking for You will be an experienced senior operations leader from third party logistics or a comparable environment, with warehousing as your primary discipline and enough transport exposure to hold that function competently. You will have carried budget accountability and reported to a chief executive or owner. You will have held quality and compliance accountability in an accredited food environment and be capable of carrying an audit if one falls due during the period. Above all you will be available now, or on short notice. We are being open about the profile that suits this best. It is somebody with a consistent permanent career history who happens to be available: displaced through restructure, recently exited, or working out a short notice period. A team that has been through a period of change needs a steadying presence rather than somebody whose pattern is short assignments. That is a judgement about what this particular operation needs at this particular moment. Personality and fit This is a business with a flat structure, direct access to the owner, and decisions taken in the room rather than in committee. The workforce is long serving, with many people at fifteen or twenty years of service and several who progressed from the warehouse floor into management. Credibility here is earned by being visible and straight with people, not conferred by a job title. You will need the confidence to make decisions and the judgement to know which ones are not yours to make. An interim who steadies a team and hands over cleanly is worth considerably more here than one who arrives and restructures. Location, and a note if you are not local The role is based in Cambridgeshire with regular presence at sites in the East of England and the North West. Because this appointment is about availability, we are looking a little wider than we would for a permanent role. If you are within about 90 minutes, whether that is the A1 or M1 corridors, the A14 or across into Suffolk, please do get in touch even if the journey would not tempt you permanently. Mileage and the occasional overnight can be discussed. The terms A minimum of three months with a formal review at three months. Remuneration equivalent to £85,000 to £95,000 per annum, pro rata for the period worked. Where the interim goes well and both parties wish to continue, a permanent appointment may become available. That possibility is real and we will be straight with you about it throughout, but it is not a promise and you should not take the role on that basis alone. The process, and how to apply We have moved this to a fast track. Apply with your curriculum vitae and tell us your availability, and we will come back to you quickly. Our client is not named at this stage; we will brief you fully before anything is shared with them, and nothing is passed on without your agreement. If you are also open to permanent opportunities, say so. We are running a permanent search for the same operation alongside this, and you may be suitable for either

General Manager Operations Cambridgeshire | £85,000 to £95,000 plus bonus, company car and benefits | Defined route to Operations Director Most operations roles at this level arrive with the structure already built, the plan already written and somebody above you who owns both. You inherit a machine and you are measured on keeping it running. This is not one of those roles. You are being asked to lead an operation that works well today, and to build the version of it that will carry a business through the most significant period of growth in its recent history. The organisation A privately owned, multi-site logistics business with a long trading history and a deliberate position in the market. It specialises in food and food ingredients, handling storage, distribution, container work, value added services and contract packing for clients who have stayed with it for decades rather than for contract terms. It has grown steadily and profitably, it is conservatively financed, and it has never had any interest in winning work on price alone. What it sells is precision and care. Customers use it because their goods are handled properly, because problems are spotted before they become costs, and because the same people answer the phone year after year. That is a genuine commercial position rather than a marketing line and protecting it while the business grows is a real part of this job. The business now intends to double the size of the operation over the next three years, through a combination of organic growth and acquisition. That ambition is the reason this appointment exists. The role and its remit You will lead the entire operation, reporting directly to the Chief Executive. Warehousing, transport, contract packing, quality and compliance across multiple accredited sites all sit with you, together with the site management teams who run them day to day. You will own the operating budget in full. You will build toward running your own profit and loss and presenting it to the board, reviewing the numbers weekly, flagging exceptions as they arise rather than saving them for a monthly meeting, and using conversations with customers to anticipate volume and plan labour and agency cover before it becomes urgent. You will carry accountability for accreditation and food safety across every site, and for health and safety across both warehousing and transport. You will lead the operational management team, develop the layer beneath it and build the succession that a growing business needs. When the business acquires again, and it fully intends to, you will assess the target operationally and lead the integration of its people, its systems and its standards. The challenge, in practical terms Three things will occupy your first year, and the business is open about all of them. The first is measurement. Performance reporting has not kept pace with growth. Measurement today leans toward customer service and complaints, with less on service levels, cost to serve, utilisation and compliance. You will build the framework that a business of this size and ambition needs, and you will be given the room to do it. The second is consistency. The sites have grown up at different times and in different ways, and some have operated with considerable independence and done so effectively. Standards, reporting and ways of working need to align. Doing that without alienating capable people who have run their sites well for years is the harder half of the task. The third is systems. A capable warehouse management system was implemented relatively recently and now runs across the business, but it is largely being used to replicate what the previous system did. Nobody has yet asked whether the business is getting everything it should from it. That is not a project you are being handed, but it is an opportunity waiting for somebody with the experience to see it. The person we are looking for You are a senior operations leader from a medium sized third-party logistics business, with warehousing as your primary discipline and genuine transport experience alongside it. That combination matters more than anything else on this list. A warehousing career with transport managed at arm's length will not be enough, because closing exactly that gap is part of the reason for the appointment. You have owned a profit and loss or a substantial budget, and you can build one, defend it and present it. You have integrated an acquisition or a significant new contract, and you understand that the operational condition of an acquired business is rarely what the financial due diligence suggested. You have held accountability for quality and compliance in an accredited food environment, and you know what an audit actually requires rather than what the manual says. Ideally your career spans a larger business earlier and a medium sized one more recently. That combination tends to produce leaders who bring proper disciplines without expecting a central function to be there to apply them. Track record We are looking for evidence rather than assertion. That means operations you have scaled rather than simply maintained, measurement frameworks you have introduced where none existed, teams you have strengthened rather than inherited functioning, and cost or service improvements you can quantify and explain. If you have taken a site or a network from inconsistent to consistent, that is the experience that matters most here. Personality and fit This is a business where relationships carry a great deal of weight. Many of the workforce have fifteen or twenty years of service, several have progressed from the warehouse floor into management, and they will form a view of you quickly. You will need to be visibly hands-on at the start, because credibility here is earned rather than granted by job title. You will also need to be the kind of leader who arrives with proposals rather than criticism. The business is candid about what is not yet right, and it welcomes challenge, but there is a real difference between somebody who says the current position is not good enough and somebody who identifies the same gap and explains how they would close it. The second person will thrive here. The first will not. Beyond that, the business wants somebody proactive. The most valuable thing you can bring is the habit of coming forward with what should happen next, rather than executing well when asked. Decisions are made quickly and often in the room, so you will need to be comfortable with pace on the day to day and with proper consideration on anything involving capital. The package £85,000 to £95,000 base, with a defined route to Operations Director and £105,000 to £115,000 on promotion against criteria agreed with you. Bonus, company car, private health insurance, pension, and 25 days holiday plus bank holidays. The process and how to apply Apply in confidence with your CV. Our client is not named at this stage. We will brief you fully on the business, the operation and the opportunity before anything is shared with them, and nothing is passed on without your agreement. Selection involves a structured competency and technical interview, followed by a second stage presentation on how you would approach the role. Psychometric assessment forms part of the process, with the interpretation shared with you as well as with our client
