Where we will compete
VED should not become a high-volume generalist recruiter. Search is focused on roles where drug-development context improves the brief, screening and client decision.
- Regulatory affairs leadership and specialists
- Clinical development and clinical operations
- Regulatory and medical writing
- Biomarkers, diagnostics and precision medicine
- Biostatistics, data science and evidence roles
- Quality, safety, CMC and regulatory operations
- AI product and transformation roles within regulated R&D

Search process
Targeted market map
Build a relevant universe and outreach logic rather than relying on inbound applications.
Evidence-based screen
Test the candidate’s actual decisions and outcomes, with technical input where appropriate.
Decision-ready shortlist
Present fit, motivation, limitations, availability and compensation context clearly.
03
Commercial discipline
For senior or difficult roles, retained or milestone-based search protects the quality of the market map and assessment. Contingency search is reserved for clearly defined, realistically fillable assignments where speed matters more than extensive mapping.
