About
Why I started Juol Partners
What I wanted to do differently, and how we run every search as a result.
Why Juol
Fifteen years, one market
01
Three sectors, nothing else
Life Sciences, Clinical Diagnostics and Analytical Instrumentation. We are not generalists moving between markets.
02
Fifteen years inside it
We understand the science, the businesses driving these markets and the specialist talent behind them.
03
People who are not looking
The strongest candidates rarely are. Most searches start with someone already in our network.
From the founder
I have spent my whole career in Life Sciences and Clinical Diagnostics recruitment, and I set up Juol Partners to hold that work to a higher standard. Too much of the industry runs on volume: a rush of CVs, a race to the invoice and little attention paid to what happens next.
I wanted to work the other way.
To take ownership of a search. To introduce people who go on to make a difference to the businesses they join, and to be measured on that difference rather than simply on filling the role.
It is a harder standard to work to, and it is the one Juol Partners exists to meet.

The standard
What that looks like in practice
Trusted
This market runs on trust, and trust is earned only by doing what you said you would, again and again. It is what we have spent a career building.
Experienced
One market, a whole career. We have never had to learn a client’s world from scratch, because we already work in it.
Accountable
We own the search from brief to start date. We will challenge the brief where it needs it, ask the difficult questions early and give you straight answers on the market and the shortlist.
Invested
We care what happens after someone starts. A hire that unravels within a year is a failure to us, whatever the invoice said.
Aligned
When our interests and yours point the same way, every decision in a search gets easier. So we build the relationship that way from the start.
Work with us
If that is the kind of partner you have been looking for, we would be glad to talk.
Whether you are hiring now or simply want a sharper view of your market.
