Why choose Life Science Recruitment?
In a nutshell - we're specialists. When you are looking to fill that all important scientific role, it makes sense to go to a scientific recruitment agency that specialises
exclusively in the life sciences. Our consultants are professional life scientists that made the move from industry or academia into commercial science. This has multiple advantages; firstly, the shortlist you receive is short - as the name suggests this is the way it's supposed to be. You can be assured that each of these shortlisted candidates has been assessed and screened by a peer coming from a scientific or medical background. This saves you time and energy - commodities that are in demand these days. Let us do the hard work for you. In a world of many recruitment agencies, it makes sense to choose a specialist science recruitment agency. Don't expect to be bombarded with the metric CV sending philosophy- 'send 10, bound to hit one'. Instead, we spend this time meeting, discussing and getting to know our candidates - this way, we get a feel for them and are in the best position possible to ensure that both candidate and employer are happy. When you see a referral from Life Science Recruitment, you can be assured that the candidate has been carefully matched to the position and that we feel they are very relevant and appropriate for your company and culture.
What are Our Services?
Contingency Recruitment - This is the most popular form of recruitment whereby the agency seeks out, screens and shortlists appropriate candidates for a permanent position. Once the candidate is placed and starts work a fee becomes payable. Should the candidate leave within a specified guarantee period, the agency will backfill the position or offer a refund if this is not possible, the level of which depends on the time elapsed since the engagement of the candidate.
Executive Search - When you're looking to fill that specialist scientific or medical senior position, you need a recruitment agency capable of delivering in a proficient and timely manner. Here at Life Science we pride ourselves in helping employers find the ideal candidate to fill even the most difficult of roles. For these very sensitive executive search positions you can be assured that our life science executive search team will find the perfect match for you. Please contact Eamonn O'Raghallaigh directly on (01) 685 45 45 to discuss in further detail.
Retained Assignment - This is a more specialised form of recruitment whereby Life Science is retained by the company with an up-front 'retainer' or percentage of the full fee. Our science recruitment agency will then prioritise the successful completion of the assignment. In essence, this means that our focus, energy and resources will be prioritised into filling the vacancy. This includes broadsheet advertising, executive search and lots of late evenings. The remainder of the fee is then paid once the candidate has been successfully placed and has started work. This form of recruitment is reserved for very senior and sensitive roles where the company doesn't want knowledge of the vacancy in the public domain.
