The core value I identify most with is striving for “growth”.

This mentality comes from a commitment to building teams with clients by providing a service that allows for long-term collaboration. The central elements that I strive for to ensure growth are strong relationship building, shared accountability, and a transparent process.

My educational background includes a master’s degree in Global Health, which sparked my interest in working within the life sciences industry. I have worked within life science recruitment since 2022, focusing on permanent quality and regulatory roles within the pharmaceutical and medical device industries. At QTC, I lead the permanent quality and regulatory recruitment within the medical device division.

Providing actionable long-term solutions

My position involves supporting candidates and clients across the medical device sector by identifying their needs and providing actionable long-term solutions. On the candidate side, this includes assisting professionals ranging from early-career to executive level in finding the next step in their careers through tailored consultation and market insights. Our client base ranges from early-stage startups to large multinational corporations, so my role is to provide a step-by-step plan to find the most suitable candidate within a predefined timeline.

Specialised focus on the life sciences industry

I was attracted to QTC due to its specialised focus on the life sciences industry, which allows for an in-depth understanding of candidate and client expectations through a strong database and advanced market knowledge. The size of the organisation provides a dynamic workplace with close relationships across all teams due to shared goals and focus.

Creating value in Life Science

For me, “creating value in life science” encompasses providing tailored support to candidates and clients through detailed consultation to properly understand needs and provide timely solutions. This includes constant communication from briefing to post-placement to ensure a long-term partnership that equally benefits both candidates and clients.
