Despite the fact that the recruitment of senior positions in the life science sector can be a long and difficult process, our experience and contacts give us a distinct edge. Even when potential candidates are not looking to change jobs, they can often be persuaded by a professional approach to consider the opportunity.
Our specialist in-house research teams research the agreed target market to identify suitable companies and individuals. We will then make informal, informed and confidential approaches to qualify the credentials of candidates, keeping the recruitment process confidential in even the most sensitive situations. Of particular value to clients is the quality and regularity of the project updates that follow. These include market intelligence such as salary issues to allow the position to be benchmarked against market rates, as well as the market perception of the client concerned.
PiR is committed to using the Executive Search process to discover individuals who do not just meet the requirements of the position in question, but exceed them. We see our role as helping clients build world-class teams of executives within the life science sector. We are not happy with simply filling roles – we want the people we find to be the best possible people. Our persistence and tenacity in finding a solution is, we believe, fundamental to delivering effective customer service.
