Building Life Science businesses through people
We help Pharmaceutical, Biotechnology, Medical Device, and Healthcare businesses to scale and build high-performing teams by sourcing the best talent using the most robust techniques.
Harris Lord is a leading Life Science search consultancy solving difficult hiring problems.
In a skills and candidate short sector, some common problems faced by Life Science companies when hiring are lack of choice, lack of quality, multiple rejection of offers and lengthy times to hire. These can result in heavy costs in revenue, product development and subsequently scale.
Our clients often come to us when they have found that the usual methods have not been successful for a particular role and a different, more rigorous approach is necessary.
We have been solving these problems since 1997 and continuously hone our methods to make sure we excel in identifying the right people for your organisation.
If you are facing challenges with any hires we would love to show you how.

Retained Search
Retained search
Working in close partnership, we take the stress out of sensitive/confidential hiring, niche skill sets, senior, c-suite, critical and difficult hires by deploying a rigorous headhunting service that identifies all the talent available in the market. We then assess against pre-agreed criteria and competencies to provide a robust shortlist of candidates and we are committed to working with you until we reach a result.
Contingent Recruitment
Contingent Recruitment
For easy to fill, every day hires we can offer a contingent recruitment service. You’ll be familiar with this: it’s a no-win no fee service with no commitment on either side. It often works relatively well for straightforward positions.
Contract / Interim
Contract/Interim
If you have a specialist or niche project, or just need some interim assistance, hiring a contractor is a great way to inject instant expertise and flexibility into your workforce without the overheads of training, employee benefits or taking on certain liabilities. We run our own inhouse payroll on a weekly basis giving you complete confidence in a fully compliant service.
Insight Studies
Insight Studies
We do comprehensive insight studies into compensation and benefits in any given market. Unlike others we use live data points for the most up to date C & B information available at any given moment in time. This is great for confidentiality, specific job titles, pipelining talent, niche skill sets & seniority levels, and can be done on demand as well as from specific target competitors in every location required. Other qualitative data as required can be collected in the project including brand perception.
We believe in creating lasting relationships with everyone we meet.
We understand that there's no one-size-fits all approach with talent acquisition, instead we take the time to focus on the service that we know we can deliver. This is why we only ever take on projects and assignments that we are confident we can deliver on. Our time is spent ascertaining what makes someone the perfect hire for a organisation and the organisation the perfect opportunity for the candidate.
Passion is at the heart of what we do, we are experts in identifying the largest talent pools, assessing within the agreed criteria and we are committed to working in partnership to the desired outcome.
Don't just take our word for it.
We help Life Science businesses hire top quality talent to enable growth and scale so they can positively impact the health outcomes of the world and our future generations to come.
