Hays Pharma Starts-Up Operations in Singapore

In recognition of the pharmaceutical industry’s rapid growth and need for staff, recruiting experts Hays brings its Hays Pharma specialization to Singapore. Now operating across 22 countries, Hays Pharma offers a significant staffing advantage to local employers.

Martin Grindrod, manager, Singapore, comments, “Singapore is one of the most open economies in the world and remains a popular trading base for the South East Asian region. The country is actively developing its pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors with funding that is earmarked to infrastructure, further research and development. We’ve seen several leading pharmaceutical companies set up operations in the country and they are investing considerable amounts of money in new facilities. Pharmaceuticals now account for more than 16 percent of the country’s manufacturing production.”

“As a result, Singapore’s pharmaceutical industry needs talented and experienced staff. Our global business network means we can attract and relocate higher level international scientists to the country and will work with candidates from abroad to fill local skill shortages,” said Martin.
