We work with the most prestigious organisations and institutions that are changing the world we live in today. With the right staff they’re doing this not in a 10 years’ time but right now. The staff we provide work within a team of professionals to help millions of people and animals worldwide live longer and happier lives.
It’s no exaggeration to say that the people we recruit perform a vital role in beating illnesses such as: Cancer, HIV, Aids, Parkinsons, Alzheimer’s, Heart Disease, Diabetes and so on. Quite literally without their work we would be hundreds of years behind in the battle to beat these debilitating and killer diseases.
Ok, so what are we going on about and how can you get involved? Specifically, we’re talking about a career within drug discovery, medical research or to use the correct term: Life Sciences. The UK is a global leader in Life Sciences and the pioneering research that goes into finding cures and medicines that will at some stage affect us all – young and old. The key to continuing this success is, in our opinion at least, getting the right staff interested in working in this amazing and rewarding industry.
You’re probably thinking “I can’t possibly help find the cure for Cancer”, well you’re wrong. Keep reading.
Way back in 2002 S3 Science Recruitment was established to help organisations within Life Sciences find individuals that had a passion for working with animals. Outside of the industry itself little was known to the average person about how our understanding of animals directly influences the advancement of medicine, treatment and surgery. Fast forward to 2016 and there isn’t a day that goes by that the world media doesn’t report yet another amazing scientific breakthrough. The last 14 years has seen the research community come out of the dark with everyone aware of where of where their medicines come from. Every year the public raise more and more money for research, how about ‘Movember’, ‘Dryathlon’ or simply being a part of a sponsored fun run in the local park – we’ve all heard of the brilliant charity events that help fund our client’s vital work. With so many success stories we know that if we continue our good work in attracting people to work in this industry, this is simply the beginning of even bigger things to come.
