Bethany’s role at SCi Partners involves researching scientific appointments, seeking to understand the essential and desirable skills for each role.

Understanding the importance of going beyond the skills that can be captured on a CV, Bethany works closely with clients, enabling her to fully understand the cultural ethos of the hiring organisation and to build genuine relationships. In turn, this helps her to identify relevant candidates and convey the nature of the role and organisation. She understands the importance in biotech and emerging technologies of hiring individuals with the right cultural fit as well as the right skills base.

Bethany particularly enjoys working with early phase life science companies, helping to build out world-class teams in innovative organisations, operating at the ‘bleeding-edge’ of scientific revolution.

Not only understanding but championing the importance of diversity, Bethany strives to ensure that her interactions with both candidates and clients are considerate, inclusive and tailored to individual needs. She firmly believes that organisational strength is found in an intersectionally diverse cohort.

Joining SCi Partners after an assignment as a human resources intern at HR Circle, she graduated from the University of Birmingham in 2021 with a first-class honours degree in History, having submitted her dissertation on Disability Rights. Her strong background in research has made her an asset to the team and she has developed a broad understanding of biotechnology and executive search.
