We’re excited to welcome Scott Hayward to the team as our new Quality Manager. With more than 30 years of experience in the medical device and pharmaceutical sectors, he brings extensive expertise in production quality, quality management systems, supplier assurance, batch release, and manufacturing QA.

 

Most recently, Scott was Senior Quality Manager at OrganOx, a pioneer in organ transplantation technology. There, he played a key role in validation activities, implemented QC goods-in inspection processes, and oversaw supplier QA, manufacturing QA, and batch release operations.

 

Earlier in his career, Scott worked with leading companies including Johnson & Johnson, AbbVie, Abbott, and Owen Mumford. His experience spans a wide range of medical technologies, from stents and stent delivery systems for aneurysms to the development and manufacture of auto-injectors. At Owen Mumford, he partnered with AbbVie to support Humira, one of the world’s best-selling drugs, earning a quality award for more than two years of uninterrupted 100% On-Time-In-Full (OTIF) performance. This achievement also contributed to Owen Mumford receiving the Strategic Supplier Partner Award.

 

Alongside his technical expertise, Scott has driven numerous quality improvement initiatives, including implementing new testing equipment, developing release laboratories, and establishing incoming inspection areas and associated procedures. He has also successfully hosted multiple inspections and audits from regulators such as the FDA, MHRA, and BSI, as well as from global customers.

 

Scott’s combination of hands-on experience, problem-solving ability, and commitment to continuous improvement makes him a fantastic addition to our team. We’re thrilled to have him on board as we continue to strengthen our quality systems and deliver the highest standards for our customers.

“I look forward to working with everyone to drive continuous improvement in quality performance across the company”

Scott Hayward, Quality Manager
