Lisamarie O'Brien

I help life sciences companies grow by connecting the right people, partnerships, and opportunities.

Throughout my career, I’ve built relationships across biotech, pharma, CROs, CDMOs, clinical research organizations, technology providers, investors, and the broader life sciences ecosystem. My role at Barrington James sits at the intersection of relationships, talent, and commercial growth—helping organizations identify the people and opportunities that can move their business forward.

What I really do is connect the dots.

I take the time to understand what a company is trying to accomplish, where they’re looking to grow, and what challenges are standing in the way. From there, I connect them with the right talent, strategic partners, clients, or industry relationships to help turn those goals into action.

My background in talent and executive search gives me a unique perspective on growth. The right hire can change a business. The right introduction can open a new market. And the right partnership can create an opportunity neither side could have found alone.

I believe the strongest business relationships are built by creating value first. Sometimes that means solving a hiring challenge. Sometimes it means making an introduction. And sometimes it’s simply recognizing two people who should know each other and making the connection.

At Barrington James, I work with life sciences organizations to support growth through strategic talent solutions, business development, relationship building, and market expansion. 

If you’re building something interesting in life sciences, I’m always interested in learning more and figuring out who I can connect you with along the way.
