Why utilise NES Fircroft for your recruitment?
Our international reach, local understanding and sector expertise makes us an invaluable recruitment partner.
Our discipline-specific recruiters facilitate access to niche talent pools and specialists
Our expert consultants are consistently engaging talent in leadership and specialist roles across all areas of the Life Science industry. Through working in niche verticals we maintain a network of contacts and relationships with passive job seekers, enabling you to thrive in a competitive landscape. Our talent pool embodies personnel from all levels of experience - from Junior, Senior and Executive, up to Directors and Officers.
We have an international office network and can expedite talent rapidly
Talent is increasingly expected to be mobile, and a leadership team’s own network is no longer sufficient to either assure success, or to reassure investors that the best possible team is being assembled. Our offices complement the European Scientific innovation hubs through a physical presence in Germany, Poland, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Belgium and the UK. Not only does this greatly extend our network reach, it means we have practical experience in assisting talent to relocate for a role.
We deliver a comprehensive methodology, without compromising on speed
Our strategic consultancy and research processes are informed and enriched with real-time statistics, data analytics, AI and chatbot technology, to ensure that companies can access the full benefit of both the human and technological intelligence behind our search methodology and commissioned recruitment advisory services to drive their agenda forward. This enables us to deploy search techniques rapidly, and precisely. Our methods increase operational efficiency and ensure regulatory compliance.
We work in partnership with you
We profile an organisation’s culture, environment, goals, platform, challenges, and team, to assess an individual’s suitability for a role. Where practical, we will visit your site to truly immerse ourselves in your culture and bring this additional knowledge to the search for optimal results.
