      While I focus within the Molecular and Genomics space I have built a large network across several disciplines from Clinical Diagnostics and Biomedical Science to Cell Biology and Imaging to Chemistry and Physics. I support a variety of commercial jobs functions, matching exceptional talent with great opportunities at market-leading companies across the UK, Mainland Europe and the US. I regularly recruit for: Sales - Inside Sales, Regional/Field Sales, Business Development, Sales Manager and Leadership Technical Support Field Application Specialists Marketing - Content Marketing, Digital Marketing, Product Managers, Marketing Manager and Leadership Service Engineering - Onsite Engineers, Field Service Engineers, Service Managers and Leadership Supporting Job Hunters If you are actively searching and would like assistance, our service is free and confidential. I like to take the time to know the individual, get a better understanding of what roles would excite you and what you want your next step to look like, rather than making assumptions and sending you endless job descriptions. Supporting Talent Hunters I have supported a wide range of organisations across our sector from start ups with single digit employees, internationals hiring their first person in country to some of the largest names in our market. I work on contingency basis meaning you only pay once we find you someone you want to hire, to ensure success we start with an in-depth conversation to outline exactly what you need and leverage networks built up over 25 years to find them. Supporting the Comfortable but Curious If you are secure and happy with your current job, it's the best time to look! I am happy to set up a confidential call to get to understand your career plan, the steps along the way and to help you achieve it, I will not tell you about every single live vacancy, just the once in a life time opportunities that you will not want to miss out on.
