Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
We're particularly interested in speaking with individuals who have:
- Demonstrable experience leading the commercial manufacture of APIs within a GMP environment.
- Experience gained within a pharmaceutical CDMO or commercial API manufacturing organisation.
- Proven leadership experience within regulated pharmaceutical manufacturing.
- A strong understanding of MHRA/EMA GMP requirements, quality systems and inspection readiness.
