Hiring guides
Written from what employers actually advertise on this board — what the roles are, what they pay, and how to run a process that does not lose the people you want.
How to hire biotech scientists in the UK
Bench, computational and clinical roles are three separate markets with different pools and different geography. What each one actually needs, and the two constraints that decide your shortlist before salary does.
- 01 Three markets, not one sector
- 02 Laboratory roles are bound to a building
- 03 What the market is paying
- 04 Say whether the work is regulated, and say it early
- 05 Be straight about funding and contract type
