Under the right circumstances recruiting a temporary Animal Technician makes good business sense.
A sudden, unexpected shortage of staff can be all that’s needed to turn an effective, productive animal unit into a dysfunctional team with over worked, exhausted staff. We’re here to provide you with a range of temporary Animal Technicians from our every growing Temp Bank. Whether you need emergency cover or have a planned requirement for short/medium term staff we can deliver.
Our Temp Bank covers all your staffing needs.
We’ve vast experience placing highly competent, security-cleared animal technicians and other research staff on short or long-term contracts with organisations, large and small, throughout the UK and Europe.
FAQs:
My experience of using temporary Animal Technicians is that they are expensive, why are the hourly charges so high?
Maybe you’ve been using the wrong recruitment agency as our hourly temp rates are the lowest in the industry. When we started providing the Life Sciences industry with our temporary Animal Technicians we looked closely at the services and charges being offered by other providers and were amazed at the astronomical costs and lack of clarity as to where this money was being spent to provide quality, affordable temporary staff. S3 as a business has always kept its overheads as low as possible, with affordable offices that we own and recruiter’s earnings that are performance and commission focused. By following these basic principles we are able to offer our clients the most affordable charge rates available in the industry not only for today but also for the future. We’ve structured our pricing scale to keep things simple and clear with all inclusive hourly rates that do away with the need for our clients to factor in or arrange their own accommodation and travel costs.

I’m very concerned about the risk of Animal Rights infiltrations within my Animal Unit. What precautions do you take to ensure this won’t happen if I choose to hire one of your temporary staff?
We understand that this is a real concern particularly as there has been a marked increase in the number of Animal Rights expose’s being carried out by agency staff. Rest assured we have not had a single incident of a current serving S3 temporary worker being involved directly or indirectly with any Animal Rights infiltrations or expose. We attribute this 100{d032a66a408d42071468e1b0b17ea416de8281560e8e4d053b72cbe361c2f33d} success rate down to:
- Advanced security screening carried out by the UK’s fastest growing security solutions provider, Horus Security. We would never attempt to security screen candidates ourselves and our decision to outsource this important function has proved invaluable. We’re never complacent and every year we review our relationship with Horus and view all of the available security screening providers to make sure we are able to continue to offer our clients temporary workers that are comprehensively security screened.
- An employment contract with our temporary workers that makes clear our intentions should they breach any of their agreed security or confidentiality clauses. S3 Science would not hesitate to take legal action should any of our temporary workers be linked with an expose or infiltration of any kind.
- More than any of the above – a good relationship with our temporary workers. By keeping in regular contact we can monitor and report to our clients any workplace issues our temporary workers raise. We have always operated a 24/7 telephone line solely for our temporary workers to use should they have any concerns whatsoever.
What sets your temporary Animal Technicians apart from other agencies?
All our temporary Animal technicians are either permanently employed by S3 or are paid clear and simple hourly rates that are the highest in the industry. We’ve never paid the national minimum wage and understand the basic principle that a happy, well paid worker is a better worker. We also recognise that these staff will often be working away from home away from family and friends. With this in mind we’ve got a dedicated Temp bank Recruitment Manager to cater for all their needs 24/7.
What if I want to take on one of your temporary Animal Technicians permanently?
Because of the quality of our temporary Animal Technicians we get asked this question time and again. The answer is simple: we will not stand in the way of you hiring our staff permanently with astronomical fees. Unlike a lot of recruitment agencies we’ve never applied our basic permanent recruitment fee structure when taking on a temporary member of staff. With a common sense approach we’ve created a sliding fee scale so that the longer you keep the temp the lower the permanent fee. Contact us to find out more.
