Somebody has to decide whether an ingredient earns its place in a formula, at what dose and in which form, and then prove it. In this role you make that call for Beseha's own products: you appraise the evidence, help develop and improve formulations, verify that every raw material matches its specification, and prepare regulatory files until they are ready for the Egyptian Drug Authority.
Experience: 2-6 years in supplement, nutraceutical or health product research and development
Why this role mattersBeseha customers take their supplements daily, trusting that what is in the bottle is safe, effective and honestly labelled. Your work turns that trust into something we can demonstrate, and helps Beseha stand as a credible scientific voice in a market crowded with claims.
What you will do
- Appraise the scientific evidence for ingredients, doses and dosage forms (tablets, capsules, powders, liquids) so every formulation decision rests on solid human data, not trends.
- Contribute to developing new Beseha formulations from concept to final specification with the contract manufacturer.
- Improve existing products by reviewing dosing, bioavailability and stability against the latest evidence and customer feedback.
- Review supplier specifications and certificates of analysis (COA) against approved specifications to protect the quality and safety of every raw-material batch.
- Prepare and follow up regulatory files with the Egyptian Drug Authority so products are registered and updated on time.
- Check claims on packaging, product pages and blog content to make sure they are accurate and scientifically supported.
- Write clear scientific briefs for marketing, customer service and pharmacist teams so they can explain products to people accurately and safely.
- Build an organised reference base of ingredients, studies and suppliers that speeds up future scientific decisions.
What we need
- Bachelor's degree in pharmacy, nutrition science, chemistry or a related science.
- 2-6 years in R&D, formulation or quality for supplements, nutraceuticals, health or pharmaceutical products.
- Proven ability to search PubMed, Cochrane or similar databases and appraise study quality (design, sample size, bias, clinical relevance).
- Hands-on experience reading COAs and raw-material specifications and comparing them with pharmacopoeial references or approved specs.
- Clear, structured scientific writing in Arabic and English, and comfortable reading research in English.
Nice to have
- Previous experience registering supplements or health products with the Egyptian Drug Authority.
- Working knowledge of GMP and of working with third-party manufacturers.
- Using AI tools for literature search and summarising, with rigorous source verification.
- Postgraduate study or specialist certification in nutrition, pharmaceutical sciences or regulatory affairs.

- By day 60You have delivered a written evidence review for at least one ingredient or product, with a clear recommendation on dose, form and strength of evidence.
