Case study: Supporting a diagnostics organisation post-restructuring
Client overview
Our client, a mid-sized diagnostics organisation based in the US, has been making strides by developing a ground-breaking blood test for cancer detection. As they pushed forward with this vital work, they encountered an unexpected challenge: a reduction in force that left their clinical research team understaffed at a crucial time.
The challenge
The sudden downsizing posed a significant obstacle for the organisation. With critical projects underway, they needed to quickly rebuild their team with highly skilled professionals to avoid delays, including Senior Clinical Research Associates (Sr. CRA) and Clinical Trial Managers (CTM).
Our solution
BioTalent’s partnership with the diagnostics organisation began with a clear understanding of their immediate needs. Leveraging our industry expertise and extensive network, we quickly identified and screened qualified candidates for the Sr. CRA, CTM, and Senior CTM contract roles.
Chloe Cummins, our lead recruiter on this project, played a pivotal role. Her deep understanding of the client’s requirements and effective communication ensured that we were aligned with their expectations from the start, allowing us to move swiftly and provide multiple strong candidates for the client’s review in a very short time.
The results
- Roles filled: one Sr. CRA, one CTM, one Sr. CTM contract role
- Interview efficiency: only six candidates interviewed (two hours) to fill all roles
- Timeframe: critical positions filled in just a few weeks, with a start date immediately after the new year
Over the past six months, we successfully supported the client in filling three critical contract roles. Despite the urgency and the specialised nature of these positions, the client only needed to interview six candidates in total, spending just two hours to secure the right talent for their team.
“BioTalent quickly helped us rebuild our clinical research team after a reduction in force, filling three key contract roles in just a few weeks. Their expertise, communication, and ability to provide quality candidates in record time made all the difference. We highly recommend BioTalent for their personal attention and seamless recruitment process.”
