At CHASE, we connect the brightest talent with leading pharmaceutical, medtech and biotech organisations across the UK. With over 25 years of industry expertise and the most experienced life sciences recruitment team in the UK, we find the right people, not just available people.
There are plenty of recruitment agencies in life sciences. Here is what sets CHASE apart.
Our consultants have deep, specialist knowledge built over decades in the sector. They understand therapy areas, NHS structures, commercial functions and the candidate market and they use that knowledge to find candidates who genuinely fit, not just candidates who are available.
We operate exclusively in the UK, which means an unrivalled understanding of the local talent market, HR legislation, geography and workforce dynamics. That focus delivers better results, faster.
We face-to-face interview every candidate we put forward, using experience and judgement rather than AI screening tools. That means no shortlists of vanilla candidates, just people with the right skills, drive and cultural fit for your organisation.
Your recruitment partner represents your company to every candidate they speak to. We take that seriously — presenting your opportunity compellingly, supporting candidates throughout the process and ensuring the best people choose your role when it is offered.
Whether you need a long-term permanent hire, flexible contract resource or a senior executive search, CHASE has the expertise and networks to deliver across every level and function.
Our CHASE Graduate Academy brings new energy and fresh thinking to our clients, helping them build their talent advantage.
We recruit across commercial and clinical functions in UK life sciences, from field-based roles to C-suite.

"I have worked both for CHASE and with CHASE for many years, so I have worn both an employee and client hat. Regardless of the role I can say with total honesty that their professionalism shines through everything they do.
Be it the speed and quality of back office support as an employee or the way they go the extra mile to find me the highest quality candidates for vacancies I find the processes are faultless. I particularly value the fact that they face to face interview every potential candidate for roles as that enables me to trust their recommendations and not waste my time when recruiting staff."

For pharma and medtech companies, a specialist pharmaceutical and medtech recruitment agency is an extension of your brand. For best results, the briefing process should be a dialogue rather than an information transfer.
For employers and hiring managers, the volume of applications can feel overwhelming, and an efficient process for screening CVs is vital to separate qualified candidates from the wider applicant pool.
AI in recruitment promises efficiency, but what are the risks? Discover how to leverage recruitment technology without losing the essential human element that finds the best talent and mitigates bias.
