Job Description:
Here’s the deal… I know you have seen plenty of these job advertisements before. They were boring, showed you no personality and you most likely didn’t apply for it.
So let me keep this simple and save us both some time. It's not what we do it is WHO WE ARE.
WE LOVE working with people, the recruitment industry for us has always been about the work itself. The networking, building relationships and sharing genuine human connections. We thoroughly believe that when done right, recruitment helps people discover unique opportunities and lifestyles they never thought possible. We rise to the challenge and support people and families with jobs and their relocation all over the world.
WE BUILD relationships, internally and externally. We have become friends with both our candidates and clients. Internally, we want to be more than just colleagues but team mates, mentors and a support network. Through business we found friendship which eliminated the absolutely outdated and terrible saying from the psychopaths within the industry “it’s not personal, its business”.
We have become friends with both candidates and clients we have worked with.
WE LIKE people being themselves, being authentic, being interested and actually caring about the work they are doing and for the people it’s for. This job isn’t magic really, it just takes someone who is willing to listen, is empathetic, and who wants to work hard. Work hard not just for themselves but for the people and clients they represent, for a company and brand they believe in.
WE WANT to help the world around us. If you didn’t know, Impel Talent focuses on three key areas: Life Sciences, Renewable Energy, and Space & Technology, three sectors that drive or impel the world we live in (as corny as it sounds it's actually the reason we work in those sectors). So while our work is focused on innovative and sustainable sectors, so are our minds when it comes to how we can help. We focus on sharing profit with non-profits/charities, we engage every month with a charity to support a greater cause, and we give everyone one day per month to spend devoted to a cause of their own choice.
So what will you do here?
As Principal / Partner for Life Sciences, you’ll be working directly with people—engaging, calling, and networking with professionals across the pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical technology industries globally. You’ll be responsible for building and nurturing long-term partnerships with key clients within one of our core sectors, and you’ll play a critical role in scaling our business and expanding our impact. You will manage key client accounts and relationship to grow our footprint across global offices.
You’ll support professionals throughout your network with career advice, development opportunities, and help them explore new external roles where they can thrive.
Impel Talent is reshaping the way the industry treats people. We offer recruitment, career coaching, and tailored training & development solutions for both individuals and organisations. Our mission is to impel the careers of the individuals we represent—empowering people to rise to their full potential through genuine partnership and strategic support.
Your Responsibilities:
* Partner with the Managing Director to shape the strategy and build the business plan for delivering large-scale recruitment projects within Life Sciences across key global hubs.
* Lead and mentor the Recruitment Team. You will work with the MD to aid in the development and growth of the team, and take over day to day management and growth of the Life Sciences team.
* Establish and grow long-term client relationships, introducing them to our full suite of services—from executive search to talent strategy and leadership development.
* Act as a trusted talent advisor to some of the world’s most innovative pharmaceutical, biotech, and medtech companies.
* Collaborate with the Director of Leadership & Coaching on impactful projects across HR and talent development for both clients and individual candidates.
* Co-create a candidate attraction strategy with the MD, using marketing, direct sourcing, job advertisements, events, and original content to connect with top-tier professionals.
* Deliver high-quality shortlists for senior and executive searches—this includes sourcing, networking, assessing, formatting CVs, and presenting talent to clients and stakeholders.
* Oversee live hiring processes, including international logistics, relocation planning, and interview scheduling with hiring teams.
* Provide candidates with high-value support, including interview preparation, feedback, and long-term career guidance.
* Lead and support salary negotiations to ensure successful, fair outcomes for all parties involved.
What we are offering:
* Competitive salary based on experience
* High level commission
* Autonomy on your projects and full support for ongoing assignments
* Training & development - external paid courses and development
* Support for further education
If you are interested in the above role then apply below. We are in no rush to fill this position and to us it is absolutely imperative the individual fit our values, understand our direction and believe in our culture.
