Fill vacancies optimally

Research and manufacturing companies in the life sciences often face major problems in defining and filling vacant positions: Experts from specific academic directions must fill the current knowledge gaps within a team and at the same time be able to actively drive progress, ideally while still contributing fresh creative impulses. Often, the requirements for a vacant position are so narrow in terms of academic orientation within biology and technical knowledge that the number of suitable candidates worldwide does not even reach triple digits.

Bioinformaticians urgently needed

In addition to unspecialised IT experts, who are often also employed in lab automation, bioinformaticians are especially in demand. They are specially trained to handle the large amounts of data that arise with their developments. Due to the complexity of the data, general computer scientists often reach their limits when it comes to sequence analysis and structural bioinformatics. Experts in bioinformatics are indispensable, particularly in systems biology. This already high and constantly growing demand stands in stark contrast to an absurdly small number of vacant experts and university graduates, which often makes the search for suitable candidates for a job without a professional partner seem almost impossible.

Staffing requirements in the life sciences

The life sciences are a broad and complicated field from the perspective of the personnel market. The problem not only affects DAX companies and global players; medium-sized companies and suppliers also depend on young talent and experienced executives with a scientific background. In addition, the life sciences, like all sectors of the economy, are desperately looking for IT staff and computer specialists who can manage and merge the large amounts of data generated in research. Without suitable system developers with the appropriate expertise, development processes in pharmacy and the life sciences can often be prolonged by months and years. No modern company can afford such delays.
