Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA)

The MHRA Graduate Scheme is a three-year graduate development scheme that provides an exciting opportunity to play a critical role in protecting public health and positively influencing patient safety

The Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) runs a three-year graduate scheme that provides an opportunity to play a critical role in protecting public health and positively influencing patient safety.

Joining a cohort of eight graduates, you will have the opportunity to undertake several placements in London or South Mimms (Hertfordshire), working closely with highly skilled multidisciplinary teams across their core operating groups: (1) Science and Research,  (2) Healthcare Quality and Access (3) Safety and Surveillance, (4) Innovation and Compliance.

The scheme provides a fully financially supported study package towards a Level 7 (degree level) apprenticeship in Regulatory Affairs, with 20% of your time dedicated to this course. There is the option to convert this into an MSc qualification at the end of the scheme, subject to eligibility.

Following the scheme, you will be in a strong position to apply for more senior roles at the MHRA. Working here can also be a brilliant grounding for a career across the health sector or in the pharmaceutical industry.
