RWE Leadership Placement for Global Cardiovascular Epidemiology Team

We secured two top RWE leads in eight weeks, enhancing the client’s cardiovascular epidemiology team.

The Challenge

Our client approached Barrington James with a clear objective: to identify a suitable RWE (Real-World Evidence) Product Cluster Lead for their Global Epidemiology Team, specifically focusing on their cardiovascular portfolio. The role’s requirements were extensive and demanding, seeking a candidate with:

• A minimum of 5 years of experience in RWE, evidence generation, or epidemiology.
• Expertise in developing high-quality RWE strategies for a global evidence-generation plan.
• The ability to design, execute, and oversee epidemiology and RWE studies of the highest quality.
• Experience leading complex international projects.
• Strong communication skills in cross-functional settings.
• A Ph.D. or MSc in Epidemiology, Medicine, Public Health, or a related discipline.
• A collaborative, proactive working style.

The Solution

The collaboration began with a detailed briefing session with the client’s Senior HR Partner and the Executive Director of the Global Epidemiology Cardiovascular Team. The Barrington James team quickly set out to find candidates who met the outlined criteria. Within just one week, four promising candidates were identified who closely matched the job requirements. Weekly catch-up calls with the client’s HR and Hiring Manager kept the project on track. All four candidates were invited for interviews, with three advancing to the final round. After a rigorous selection process, the hiring team extended offers to the two strongest candidates, and internal approval was received to bring them on board. From the initial briefing to contract signing, the process spanned only eight weeks.

The Outcome

The success of this talent acquisition was evident as the two selected candidates joined our client’s team, significantly enhancing the Global Epidemiology Cardiovascular Team’s capabilities. Their expertise and experience aligned well with the company’s goals. Impressed by Barrington James’ commitment, efficiency, and ability to meet unique talent needs, our client chose to continue working exclusively with Barrington James. This partnership has led to seven successful placements within the RWE and Epidemiology Teams across 2022 and 2023.
