�� Fractional Leadership Consultant | Life Sciences
London | Hybrid | Executive Search, Advisory & Fractional Leadership
  
If you're a recruiter who enjoys building relationships with founders, investors and senior leadership teams — and you're looking to move beyond traditional contingent recruitment — this could be one of the most interesting opportunities in the market right now
.We're partnered with a key client, a global life sciences talent business, to hire a lead into their rapidly growing Fractional Leadership & Advisory Practice
  
This isn't a typical recruitment desk.
You'll be working with
✔VC-backed Biotech companies
✔ Founders, CEOs & Board members
✔ Fractional C-Suite leaders
✔ Investors, Venture Capital & Family Offices
✔ Advisory Boards & Interim Executives
  
  
Rather than reacting to live vacancies, you'll build long-term strategic partnerships with high-growth life sciences businesses, helping them access the leadership, expertise and advisory support they need to scale.
  
Why This Opportunity?
�� One of the most commercially attractive markets in life sciences
�� Existing platform already established with:
  • 75+ MSAs and contract agreements
  • Strong VC and investor network
  • Existing fractional and advisory success stories
  • Established US & European infrastructure
�� Work directly with founders and investors across key biotech hubs in Europe & North America
�� Opportunity to help build and shape a high-growth business unit with a genuine leadership pathway.
  
Who Could Be a Fit?
We're open-minded on background.
You might be:
  • A high-performing contingent recruiter looking for something more consultative
  • An executive search consultant
  • A life sciences recruiter wanting exposure to founders and investors
  • An experienced recruiter operating in the VC/PE space who is open to transitioning this into Biotech/LS
  
You do NOT need to have done fractional/interim recruitment previously. They are happy to consider perm recruitment profiles.
  
  
What matters most is:
✅ Strong business development ability
✅ Confidence engaging senior stakeholders
✅ Commercial curiosity
✅ Entrepreneurial mindset
✅ Natural gravitas and credibility
✅ Ambition to build something long term
