1.1
For employers
A shortlist for your pharma role in 7 business days.
Tell us about the role and we'll speak to every candidate ourselves. You'll meet the ones who fit within 7 business days, and you pay nothing until your new hire starts.
1.2
Our promises
Three promises we make every client, and what each one means in practice.
7
business days to your shortlist
The clock starts the day your brief is complete. If a role needs longer, we'll tell you straight away and give you a date we can keep.
90
days of free replacement
If your new hire leaves within 90 days of their start date, we find you someone new for the same role, with no second fee.
$0
until your hire starts
There's no retainer and nothing to pay while we search. The invoice comes once they've started, and if nobody starts, you pay nothing.
Before anyone reaches your shortlist, we've talked with them ourselves about the submissions, audits and quality systems they've actually worked on.
1.3
How it works
From your brief to your new hire's first day, here's what you'll get from us.
Day 0
Your brief
Tell us the role, where it's based and how soon you need someone. We read every brief the day it arrives and call you if anything's unclear.
Days 1–6
Screening
We search the market ourselves and speak to every person before you hear their name.
Day 7
Your shortlist
Your shortlist arrives with a note from us on every name, so you know who you'd like to meet before you open a single CV.
Then
Interviews and your hire
You interview the people you like and make your offer. Our invoice only comes once your new hire has started.
1.4
Our standards
How we'll handle your search, and how you'll know we did.
- 01
Everyone on your shortlist will have spoken to us first.
How you'll know
Each name comes with a short note from us on why they fit your role and what they've actually worked on.
- 02
We approach people directly, one at a time.
How you'll know
Nothing goes out in bulk. If you'd like the search kept quiet, we won't name your company until a candidate is serious and you've said we can.
- 03
If only two people are right for the role, you'll get two.
How you'll know
We'd rather hand you a short, honest list than a long, padded one. If your role is rare enough for that, we'll tell you on day zero.
- 04
You'll see the fee in writing before we start.
How you'll know
It goes into your brief, and nothing is due until your new hire starts work.
- 05
Everyone we speak to about your role hears back from us.
How you'll know
Hired or not, every candidate gets an answer. They're meeting your company through us, so we treat them the way you would.

FAQ
What people ask us on a first call, and what we tell them.
Can't see your question?
Ask us directly
01What do you charge?
We agree the fee with you in writing before we start. It depends on the role and the salary band, and it goes into your brief, so there’s no invoice you didn’t expect. You pay nothing until your hire starts work, and nothing at all if nobody starts.
02Do we have to work with you exclusively?
We agree the terms with you before we start, and whatever we agree goes into the brief. If you’re also using other agencies for the same role, just tell us at the start. It changes how the 7 days work in practice, and we’d rather talk about that up front than find out on day six.
03What happens after I send a brief?
One of us reads it the same business day. If anything’s unclear, like the seniority, the salary band or whether the role is on site, we’ll come back to you with questions, and the 7 days start once they’re answered. Your shortlist arrives on day 7 either way, though you’ll usually hear from us before then.
04Is 7 business days realistic for every role?
For most of the roles we fill, yes. For a genuinely rare profile, say a niche device specialism in one particular city, 7 days might bring you two people instead of five. We’ll tell you which of those you’re looking at on day zero. We’d rather hand you a short, honest list than a long, padded one.
05How does the 90-day guarantee work?
If your hire resigns, or you let them go for performance reasons, within 90 calendar days of their start date, we run the search again at no extra fee. The guarantee covers the replacement search itself. Its conditions, such as notice being given and the role staying the same, are written into the agreement you sign before we start, so you’ll know them before anything goes wrong.
06Can you keep my search confidential?
Yes. If you’re replacing someone who’s still in the role, or you’d rather the market didn’t know you’re building a new team, we approach people without naming you. We only tell a candidate who you are once they’re serious and you’ve said we can. We look after candidates’ privacy in the same way.
07Do you work outside pharma, or outside the US?
No. We work on pharmaceutical, biotech and medical device roles in the United States, and nothing else. Keeping our focus that narrow is what lets us make the promises on this page.
