Finding a Life Sciences role
The competition for top talent within life sciences is fierce. Often, only a small number of candidates possess the skills necessary to excel in your specific role. As life science recruitment specialists, our team regularly connects with researchers and professionals with industry experience, meaning we may already know your future employee.
In a competitive job market, a suitably competitive salary is essential - but it isn’t the only thing that attracts top candidates. Many applicants will be looking for the opportunity to take part in exciting new research or cutting-edge projects.
Our Life Sciences recruitment team can help you communicate your opportunity in a way that attracts the best candidates for your role. We’ll support by mapping out duties and responsibilities, creating a job description and promoting it to the right people. We won’t just wait for the right candidate to come along; we’ll also contact suitable professionals who may not actively be looking for a new job.
We’ll also help with applicant vetting, assessment centres and interviews, before extending job offers on your behalf, negotiating contracts and supporting with onboarding.
