With founders who come directly from careers in Pharma, Biotech, MedTech, and Consultancy, being truly embedded in our sectors has always been at the heart of what we do.

Get in touch

Our experience within Life Sciences extends beyond Pharma, Biotech and MedTech organisations to the specialist consultancies and service providers that support them.

Having worked directly within the Business Intelligence, Medical Communications and Market Access consultancy sectors ourselves, we understand first-hand the dynamics of a consultancy environment and the importance of securing people who combine strong technical expertise with the commercial awareness and client-facing skills required to succeed.

We have dedicated and experienced Consultants with established networks across Healthcare Communications, Market Access & HEOR, Commercial Insights & Analytics, Strategy & Management Consulting, as well as the wider CRO and CDMO landscape. This depth of market knowledge enables us to understand the nuances of individual disciplines and identify experienced professionals with the specialist knowledge, sector credibility, and commercial capabilities our clients require.

Across North America and Europe, we partner with organisations ranging from specialist and growing consultancies through to established global service providers, CROs and CDMOs. Whether making a critical senior appointment, strengthening an established practice or function, building a new capability, or expanding into a new geography, we help our clients secure the specialist talent needed to support their growth and deliver exceptional work for their Life Sciences customers.

Public Relations Lead at SomX Health

Carrot Life Sciences entered their consideration alongside multiple agencies to help support the recruitment of this crucial role.

“Thanks so much for the flexibility and patience. We were consistently impressed by the support and service Carrot Life Sciences provided through the process, so from one client service professional to another, thank you!”

Jessica Somauroo

Co-Founder, Somx Health

“The candidates that Carrot provide are always up to the certain caliber that we require and service is prompt with communication etc without being pushy or chasing too hard for feedback knowing we are an incredibly busy team. They provided us with some really strong candidates and one that we have now offered! Really happy with the great service from Carrot as always and they would be our first port of call for any future recruitment needs.”

“Carrot Life Sciences came into the picture after we performed an initial screening of the market on our own. We could not find the right caliber of candidates with the relevant experience and leadership levels. They helped us identify in a short time strong profiles from the talent market which we probably wouldn’t have had access to without their support. We managed to secure our final candidate meeting the leadership expectations of the role. It was a successful collaboration and would recommend their service moving forward.”

“The team at Carrot came up with some highly creative and value added ways to secure high calibre talent in a notoriously difficult region of the UK to recruit technical specialists. Carrot really stands out above competitors in the recruitment services marketplace because of their expert knowledge and excellent customer service focus. They deliver consistently – even when given the most challenging job brief to fulfil!”

“Carrot Life Sciences were very attentive and understanding of what we required and the capabilities we were looking for.  They were at all times contactable and responsive, and we were able to move very quickly on – even over the festive period.  We took 3 candidates to Assessment Centre and somewhat unusually all of them would have been great additions to our organisation but alas we could only take one! I think that would count as a very successful recruitment process for us.”
