Compliance Manager, Electronics (Life Safety Products)
Ormskirk, West Lancashire
\n
Up to £70,000
\n
Office based with test house travel
\n
Every electronic product you trust, from the phone in your pocket to the alarm on your ceiling, got there through compliance. Someone determined which standards applied, built the technical file, managed the test house, and put their name to the declaration. This role puts you in charge of that whole discipline for a market-leading UK manufacturer whose products protect life every single day.
\n
KO2's client is a long-established, highly profitable British electronics manufacturer, a genuine market leader that designs and builds its products in the UK and exports worldwide. Their systems are electronic sensing and detection devices communicating, increasingly wirelessly, with control equipment that triggers alarm and notification devices. Life safety electronics, engineered and certified to some of the most demanding harmonised standards in the industry.
\n
The opportunity
\n
This is a succession appointment. The company's current compliance specialist retires next spring, and the business wants their successor in post by the autumn so a proper handover happens with the person who holds the knowledge today. You will take ownership of the compliance function: determining applicable standards and directives for new and existing products, creating and maintaining Technical Construction Files and Declarations of Conformity, managing relationships with third party test and approval houses in the UK and Europe, overseeing the workflow of a well-equipped in-house EMC facility, and leading a small verification team.
\n
What you will need
\n
Here is the honest picture. The full standards landscape for these products is wide: EN 54 and its many parts, BS 5839, BS 8629, BS 7273, EN 62368-1, EN 50130, EN 50131, EN 61000, EN 12094-1, the Construction Products Regulation, plus the directive set that applies to any electronic product: RED, LVD, EMC, RoHS, Environmental Product Declarations and the incoming Cyber Resilience Act. Nobody arrives knowing all of that, and the client does not expect you to. What they need is:
\n
\n
Why this role
\n
Compliance carries real weight in this business: nothing ships without it. You inherit an experienced team, an in-house EMC facility, and a structured handover from a respected long-serving specialist rather than an empty desk. The company is stable, privately owned, profitable, and its products sit in a regulated, non-discretionary market that does not slow down when the economy does. At £70,000 in West Lancashire, with a genuine leadership platform and a clean succession story, this is one of the strongest compliance appointments in the North West this year.
