Alexander Madell – Quality Assurance and Regulatory Affairs Consultant
What Will Your Role Entail?
As a Quality Assurance and Regulatory Affairs Consultant, Alexander will be working closely with external clients to provide a comprehensive range of support, from drafting technical files for medical devices to implementing new Quality Management Systems (QMS). He will also act as the UK Responsible Person (UKRP) for businesses outside the UK, helping them bring their medical device products to the UK market.

“I’m thrilled to be joining a growing business that offers such a variety of work,” says Alexander. “At LFH, I’ll have the chance to support a diverse range of clients and help develop the business further. Having previously worked in larger organisations, the opportunity to be part of a more dynamic, flexible team where I can make a tangible impact really excites me. I can’t wait to get started!”
What Do You Love About the Regulation Industry?
“While it’s not something most people dream of doing, the regulatory industry is incredibly dynamic and fast-paced,” Alexander explains. “The constant evolution of technology keeps things interesting, and I love being able to leverage my science background to help bring safer, more effective products to market. The regulatory field provides endless opportunities for learning and problem-solving, which is something I truly enjoy.”
What Are Some of the Challenges You Face in Your Role?
“Regulatory roles have often been seen as obstacles to business success, the dreaded ‘red tape’,” Alexander acknowledges. “But I believe the industry is changing. More businesses are recognising the need for robust, effective regulation to ensure safety without being overly burdensome. Gaining buy-in from other departments is becoming easier as organisations see the value in compliance.”

“I finished school in Australia before moving back to the UK for university. I originally planned to return to Australia, but life had other plans,” says Alexander. “I reconnected with someone I’d known since I was five, and we’re now happily married. So, I’ve settled back in Essex, where I started, and I haven’t looked back since!”
Faiza Jabeen – Senior Regulatory Affairs Consultant

Her role includes developing regulatory strategies, creating vital regulatory documents, and leading discussions with regulatory authorities on behalf of clients.

Faiza’s passion for the regulatory field is evident: “It might surprise people, but I genuinely love my job,” she admits. “What I find so satisfying is knowing that my work helps create products that are safe and effective, ultimately improving people’s lives. The regulatory landscape is always changing, so there’s always something new to learn. This keeps my work dynamic and fulfilling.”
What Are Some of the Challenges You Face in Your Role?

My goal is to help make sure that regulatory priorities are understood and embraced by all teams, not just seen as a burden.”
