Affinity Group Limited

Quest in the UK is seeking to hire first-class biomedical scientists, the vast majority of whom are currently working in the National Health Service (NHS). The company believes it can offer employees something different.

Linda Smith, the UK Director of Human Resources, says: “This is a slightly different organisation doing the same sort of work. We are much smaller than the NHS, so we are more flexible. We are working in an industry that is quite altruistic in that it is concerned with human health, and yet we are also participating in some of the most advanced clinical trials going on in the country and worldwide. Working here is all about cutting-edge technology and innovation; those are principles that are part of the company’s values.”
