Biomedical, laboratory and research talent, placed properly
Lumora recruits biomedical scientists, laboratory and research professionals, and principal investigators for pharmaceutical, biotech, CRO, diagnostics and academic research employers across the UK. From bench roles through to research leadership, every candidate is matched on real scientific fit, not keyword matching.
Principal investigator and senior research hiring
Alongside bench and laboratory roles, Lumora supports the recruitment of principal investigators and senior research leads for UK universities, research institutes and biotech employers. These searches are handled with the same scientific understanding as every other brief, with particular attention to the fit between a candidate's research background and the role's objectives.
Tell us the role, we find the fit
Send us the brief, including the role, level, hours and salary band, and we come back with a shortlist of available, properly vetted candidates. We handle scheduling, chase references and stay in touch through to the start date and beyond.
- Permanent, contract and temporary hiring
- Bench, laboratory and research roles through to principal investigator and senior research leadership
- Candidates checked against the role, including qualifications and right to work, before you see a profile
