About Technovent
What is Technovent?
Technovent is a specialist medical devices company founded in 2007 in Bridgend, Wales. The company designs and manufactures maxillofacial prosthetic products including magnetic attachment systems, medical-grade silicone materials, and colouring systems used in facial and dental reconstruction. Technovent's products help patients who have lost facial features due to cancer, trauma, or congenital conditions regain their appearance and confidence.
The company works closely with maxillofacial prosthetists, anaplastologists, and dental technicians worldwide, providing the materials and tools they need to create lifelike prostheses. Technovent is recognised as a leader in this niche but vital area of healthcare.
Where will I work?
Technovent is based in Bridgend, United Kingdom, and operates primarily on-site. The nature of the work — manufacturing precision medical devices and materials — requires hands-on presence at the facility. The Bridgend location in South Wales offers easy access to the M4 corridor and is within reach of Cardiff, Swansea, and the broader South Wales region.
What is the team like?
With approximately 12 employees, Technovent is a small, close-knit team of specialists. The team includes engineers, materials scientists, production staff, and commercial professionals who share a passion for improving patients' lives through innovative prosthetic solutions. The small team size means everyone plays a meaningful role and has direct impact on the company's products and mission.
Technovent values precision, craftsmanship, and innovation, attracting people who take pride in producing products that make a real difference to patients' quality of life.
Work-Life Balance
Technovent operates a 4-day work week at 32 hours with full pay. Despite being a small manufacturing company, Technovent has embraced the shorter working week as a way to attract and retain skilled employees in a competitive market. The extra day off each week gives team members more time for personal pursuits while maintaining the focus and productivity needed for precision medical device manufacturing.
