Who You Are

One of our core values is that we hire EQ over IQ, this applies both to our recruitment work and our own internal hiring. We are not just looking for a recruiter; we are looking for a specific kind of person. If the points below sound like you, then we would love to talk!

• You have commercial experience. 2+ year of (biotech) recruitment, sales, marketing, or customer facing roles.
• You are genuinely curious about the -omics world. Genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics: these are not just buzzwords to you. You have studied it, worked in it, or you actively follow it. That curiosity is what will make you credible with our clients and candidates.
• You have global ambitions. We work globally, spanning USA, EMEA, and APAC - often all at once. This takes some flexibility on how you structure your workday. We also travel the world to attend conferences!
• You have a real work ethic. You care about doing great work and are willing to put in the effort to get there.
• You learn fast and want to contribute faster. You pick things up quickly and ask the right questions. You are someone who can ramp up with pace and start making a real impact early.
• You have strong emotional intelligence. You can read a room, navigate sensitive conversations, and build trust with people at all levels. You understand that recruitment is a people business, and you treat it that way.
• You are commercially driven. EQ gets you trusted. Drive gets you results. You have a desire to win, to close, and to earn commission. You want to be successful and are motivated to achieve your targets.
• You are a self-starter with entrepreneurial energy. You take initiative, think commercially, and execute with confidence and ability. You bring ideas, not just effort.
• You communicate with warmth and directness. Fluent English is essential. Any additional language is a plus.

Ideally, you hold a degree in Life Sciences and bring recruitment experience with you. But what matters most is that your interest in the field is real and your drive to succeed is clear.
