About Granado:


Founded in 1870 by the Portuguese José Coxito Granado, the Granado story began by selling natural remedies created from plants, herbs and flowers native to his home, in Rio de Janeiro’s mountainous region. The brand’s first store was established in the heart of downtown Rio de Janeiro, where the historic shop still stands today.


The quality and effectiveness of the products soon made Granado one of the official Pharmaceutical suppliers to the Royal Court. For that reason, the brand was given the title of ‘Official Pharmacy of the Imperial Family of Brazil’ by the Emperor D. Pedro II, in 1880.

Emblematic in its country of origin, Granado has been passed down through the generations and is part of the Brazilian heritage.


In 2013 the brand started its global expansion by opening its first concept store outside of Brazil, at prestigious department store Le Bon Marché in Paris. Thereafter, Granado has opened stores throughout many European countries including France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, England, Greece, and Austria.


With more than 100 stores globally, the brand distributes over 15 million products per month due to its increasing and strong presence at the best pharmacies, perfumeries, and department stores throughout Brazil and Europe.

Contract vs Permanent Biotech Jobs: Which Pays Better in 2025?

In the ever-advancing world of life sciences, biotechnology has emerged as one of the fastest-growing and most impactful sectors in the UK. From gene editing and regenerative medicine to synthetic biology and vaccine development, British biotech organisations are at the forefront of scientific innovation. With this growth comes a high demand for skilled professionals—scientists, data analysts, regulatory affairs specialists, bioprocess engineers, and more—who can help bring cutting-edge treatments and products to market. However, as the biotechnology landscape in the UK continues to expand, so too do the ways in which professionals choose to work. Beyond traditional permanent employment, many biotech specialists are exploring the world of contracting, which can take the form of day‑rate consulting or fixed-term contracts (FTC). Each path promises unique advantages and disadvantages, from pay rates and benefits packages to career development and job security. This article offers a comprehensive guide on contract vs. permanent biotech jobs in 2025. We will explore how the UK biotech sector is shaping up, break down the different types of employment arrangements, and present sample take‑home pay scenarios for each. Our goal is to empower you with the knowledge needed to make an informed decision that aligns with both your financial aspirations and long-term career goals within the vibrant and evolving biotech industry.

Biotech Jobs for Non‑Technical Professionals: Where Do You Fit In?

Your Place in Britain’s Biotech Boom When most people picture biotechnology careers they imagine pipettes, petri dishes and white‑coated scientists in Cambridge or Oxford. Yet for every bench scientist there is an ecosystem of professionals who never set foot in the lab but are crucial to getting a therapy, diagnostic or food‑tech breakthrough to market. The UK BioIndustry Association (BIA) reports that non‑scientific vacancies now make up more than one‑third of all biotech job ads, and demand is accelerating. According to Vacancysoft’s Life Sciences Labour Market Trends (November 2024), biotech job postings in the Golden Triangle jumped 26 % year‑on‑year, with hotspots also emerging in Birmingham and Glasgow. Finance is following suit: the sector attracted £3.5 billion in investment during 2024, a 94 % rebound from 2023 levels. More capital means more hires in project management, regulatory affairs, and commercial operations. In short, biotech is not just for PhDs, and you don’t need to master CRISPR to make an impact. This guide explains the high‑growth, non‑technical roles; the transferable skills you already possess; real‑life transition stories; and a step‑by‑step plan to pivot into the UK’s most exciting industry.
