Continuing from our last “What’s Hot Right Now” spot, we’ll continue this and hereby promise to make this a monthly section on the blog.

Areas we’re particularly busy in currently:

Reg Affairs – we are working on some very interesting work in this area on the Medical Devices / Diagnostics side of things. Anyone with significant experience in this area – do get in touch! These skills are particularly in demand for companies launching new products or new start-up organisations developing / taking over new products. The trend towards more specific and niche products means more regulatory (and associated quality) filings, valuable skill sets to have for the future.

Biotech professionals – vacancies in various areas here, engineering / production / quality / micro etc. It’s a chicken and egg scenario, as biotech is not an area we as a country have explored greatly in the past, although this is changing somewhat. Overseas and other candidate are encouraged to contact us.

Sales and Marketing – - Medical Device Sales Specialist, Hospital Sales Reps and Business Managers are all high on the target list.

Outside Science: currently it’s music to lift us all out of the post-Marathon – cold, winter blues. This week I have attended Martin Hayes & Dennis Cahill (amazing!) and have plans for Muse and the Diversus Guitar Orchestra this weekend…

Following on from last month – Google Wave really underwhelmed didn’t it? Dublinbikes seem to be taking off though
