What you’ll be doing:
Own and grow the EU MSAT market — develop new client relationships and expand existing partnerships across Europe.
Drive new business opportunities — both independently and in collaboration with the wider BioTalent team.
Contribute to our strategic growth in Europe as we continue to expand our international footprint.
Option to build and mentor a team around you as your desk grows, if leadership is part of your career plan.
What we're looking for:
Proven track record of success in life science recruitment, ideally within MSAT, Biologics, or advanced manufacturing markets.
Demonstrated billing success with a strong network of EU-based clients.
Strong business development skills and experience expanding client accounts.
Leadership capability or potential — whether you’ve led formally, mentored others, or want to develop this in the future.
Excellent communication, organisation, and customer service skills.
Why Join BioTalent?
Thought leadership approach to recruitment — market immersion, proactive industry training, and budget to attend both local and international life science conferences.
Serious progression opportunities — whether your ambition is to build and manage a team or become a market-leading independent biller.
International mobility — with offices across the US, London HQ, and ongoing European expansion.
Uncapped, no-threshold commission up to 50% of your billings.
Tailored performance targets based on your market and ambition — with flexibility and autonomy in how you deliver.
