Life sciences talent and strategic consultancy RBW Consulting has announced that it is to create 25 new jobs after setting up a new office in Newcastle. The company already has two offices in the UK, as well as three in the US, and the new base will be within the Newcastle Helix science park.
Business Live reports that the opening of the Newcastle office comes only six months after its latest opening in the US, and will help establish the firm’s presence in the North East, chosen for its reputation as a centre for excellence in science and innovation, and will form part of the company’s wider expansion.
The new office will be in The Catalyst development within the science park, which is home to National Innovation Centre for Ageing and the National Innovation Centre for Data, and hosted and funded by Newcastle University in partnership with the UK Government.
Newcastle Helix is a 24-acre development that helps gather businesses, industry leaders, and researchers together in one internationally renowned innovation cluster.
RBW has commenced a recruitment drive for an initial team of ten for the new office, which will be expanded to 25 staff as the science hub grows.
Richard Warren, co-founder and CEO, said: “This is an exciting time for the life science sector, witnessing accelerated growth and unprecedented levels of innovation.”
He examined that the company’s goal is to facilitate access to the necessary talent needed by the life sciences sector and to partner on strategic development.
“Extending our current operations to become part of the thriving global centre for life science in Newcastle was a great opportunity for our business, and we look forward to playing an active role in this impressive ecosystem,” he added.
