As one of the founders of Meet, I offer over 15yrs of Life Science recruitment experience; during this time, I've worked in our European and North America hubs. Through this, I've helped grow the Meet teams in London, New York City and Chicago, shaping strategy and ensuring our market expertise spans the full drug development spectrum. During this time, I've worked as a Director in both the permanent and contract divisions, as well as taken on Client Development roles, but now find myself back in London heading up Meet's newest division - Client Partners.

The Client Partner Division is where we manage Meet's high volume, repeat business client base with the intention of forming long-lasting, strong partnerships built on trust, knowledge and reputation. This is a global function where we connect the dots across all our offices to offer this client base a truly global solution to their staffing needs.

Despite having worked in the Life Sciences space for over 15yrs I am still amazed at the continued innovation and excitement at what this industry achieves. Without a doubt, it's one of the most engaging areas to hire into, with it touching everyone's lives, so seeing the difference our placements make to the success of drug development activities is extremely rewarding. This has become ever more topical and mainstream in the wake of the COVID pandemic, and I'm amazingly proud of Meet's impact in this space.

Meet is truly a Life Sciences recruitment partner who balances the moral impact of our work with a successful business approach. We take pride in our values, from which every internal hire is made. Ensuring that your experience working with Meet feels the same whether dealing with a resourcer in London or a lead in New York. So no matter if you are looking for a high volume, global solution to your hiring headache or are a small biotech simply needing one hire per year, we have a team to fit. Get in touch and find out first hand about the Meet experience and how we can support you.
