This is our Regulatory Landscape newsletter for November 2025 with our monthly insights on the evolving market for Regulatory professionals.
It appears that Regulatory hiring is bouncing back after a very slow period. For the month of October there were 108 new Regulatory positions posted at smaller and mid-sized biopharma companies in the US. This is up 46% from September and flat from October 2024. This is the highest number of postings we’ve seen in a single month so far this year.
47% of these new positions were in Clinical Regulatory Strategy and 21% were in CMC Regulatory, 12% in Regulatory Operations, and 19% were in Advertising, Promotions & Labeling. This is the highest number of new Regulatory Advertising, Promotions, and Labeling roles we have ever seen since we started tracking job postings in 2020. Roughly 60% of all October Regulatory roles were at Director level and above. There were five new Regulatory VP/SVP positions posted in October.
43% of the new Regulatory positions in October were listed as Onsite, 27% were posted as Remote and 30% were Hybrid (remote/onsite). 33% of the October Regulatory positions were in California, 25% were in Massachusetts, and 27% were in the NJ/NY/PA area.
