About The Position

Lead a team at the heart of bringing life-changing animal health innovations to the world. As the Manager of Regulatory Operational Compliance, you'll oversee the team responsible for preparing global product documentation for a diverse portfolio of veterinary and water diagnostic products — partnering closely with R&D and Lines of Business to keep innovation moving from lab to market, worldwide. This is a role for someone who thrives on solving complex problems, loves building better systems, and gets energy from leading people. You'll have the opportunity to drive continuous improvement toward a clear goal: consistent, accurate, and timely documentation for every regulatory submission — the kind of reliability that lets R&D and business teams move forward with confidence. Why this role matters: Every new diagnostic tool, every product update, every improvement to how we test and protect animal and environmental health depends on getting the documentation right the first time. Delays or inconsistencies in regulatory submissions can slow down products that veterinarians, labs, and pet owners around the world are counting on. In this role, you're not just managing paperwork — you're building the operational backbone that lets IDEXX innovate quickly and responsibly, at global scale.
