Careers at VoltConsulting

Built for People Who
Lead With EQ.

We are a small, ambitious and values-driven talent firm. We are not looking for the loudest voice in the room. We are looking for partners who understand people, operate with integrity and want to build something that genuinely matters.

Start a Conversation What We Look For
Who We Are

Built Differently.
Exceptional by Standard.

VoltConsulting is an independent talent firm founded on a simple principle, that recruitment done properly changes lives and shapes organisations. We are not a volume business. We do not chase numbers. We are driven by outcomes, relationships and a standard of care that our clients and candidates have come to expect from us.

We operate across two specialist areas, pharmaceutical and life sciences executive search, and consulting firm talent across the UK, US and Europe. In both spaces, we work at a level of depth that requires genuine sector knowledge, emotional intelligence and the confidence to have the right conversations, not just the easy ones.

We are growing. And we are looking for the right people to grow with us.

We are looking for experienced recruiters and executive search professionals who bring more than a track record. We need people with an entrepreneurial mindset, the drive to contribute to the wider growth of the business and the ambition to help shape what VoltConsulting becomes. This is not a role you step into. It is a seat at the table. That means a genuine meeting of minds from the outset, shared values, shared standards and a shared commitment to building something we are all proud of.

We are also open to trailblazers from adjacent sectors who bring fresh thinking and the hunger to apply their skills in a new space. If you can complement what we already have and add something we do not, we want to hear from you.

"We built VoltConsulting because we believed there was a better way to do this. Not louder, not faster, not more transactional. Just better. More considered, more human, more invested in the outcome. If that resonates with you, we would genuinely like to hear from you."

How We Work

100% Remote.
Always Will Be.

We built VoltConsulting as a fully remote business from day one, not as a compromise, but as a deliberate choice. It gives us access to the best people regardless of where they are based, and it reflects something fundamental about how we operate.

We believe in mutual trust and genuine collaboration over proximity and oversight. The results speak for themselves, and the people who thrive here are those who take ownership, communicate openly and hold themselves to a high standard without needing to be managed.

Autonomy, accountability and trust are not perks here. They are the foundation.

Our Two Practice Areas

Two Spaces.
One Standard.

Whether you come from a life sciences background or a consulting recruitment background, there is a home for you at VoltConsulting, provided you bring the right values, the right work ethic and the right approach to people.

Pharmaceutical & Life Sciences

Our BioPharma and life sciences executive search practice places senior scientists, functional heads and C-suite leaders across Switzerland, Germany, the UK and beyond. This arm requires genuine scientific literacy, a network built over years and the patience to work in niche talent markets where others struggle.

You do not need to have a PhD, but you do need to understand the world of drug development, clinical research and the organisations that drive it.

Typical hires: Senior Scientists, Functional Heads, CMOs, CSOs, Medical Directors, Programme Leaders

Consulting Firm Talent

Our consulting practice works with pharma and life sciences consulting firms across the UK, US and Europe, recruiting at every level from Associate Consultant through to Partner. This arm requires an understanding of consulting culture, commercial instinct and the ability to identify people who can drive new business and grow a practice.

You may have worked in consulting recruitment, professional services or a related talent function. What matters most is that you understand the world you are recruiting into.

Typical hires: Associate Consultants, Consultants, Senior Consultants, Principals, Partners, Practice Leaders
What We Look For

Values Before
Everything Else.

Skills can be developed. Sector knowledge grows with time. But the values and character that define how someone treats people, that has to already be there. Here is what matters most to us.

Emotional Intelligence

The ability to read a room, understand what is not being said and connect with people on a human level. EQ is not a soft skill here, it is the most important one we have.

Integrity

We do not make promises we cannot keep. We do not oversell. We are honest with clients and candidates even when it is not what they want to hear. We need people who hold themselves to the same standard.

Patience & Persistence

The best searches take time. The right relationships are built over months and years. We are looking for people who understand the value of doing things properly, not quickly.

Ambition

We are a small firm with large ambitions. We want people who want to grow, professionally, commercially and personally, and who see VoltConsulting as the platform to do that from.

A Partnership Mindset

We are not building a team of individuals chasing personal targets. We are building a firm together. Generosity, collaboration and a genuine investment in each other's success are non-negotiable.

Sector Curiosity

You do not need to know everything about pharma or consulting on day one. But you do need to be genuinely curious about the industries you will be working in and committed to developing real knowledge over time.

Honest Expectations

This Is Not for Everyone.

We would rather be upfront than waste your time or ours. VoltConsulting is not the right fit for everyone, and that is fine. We are a lean, focused business operating at a high standard. What we offer in return is genuine autonomy, a strong values-driven culture and the opportunity to be part of building something.

If you are looking for a high-volume, KPI-driven environment with a large team around you from day one, we are probably not the right home. But if the below resonates, we would genuinely love to hear from you.

✓

You are comfortable working with a high degree of autonomy and take ownership of your outcomes

✓

You believe the quality of every conversation matters as much as the quantity

✓

You want to develop genuine sector expertise, not just place CVs

✓

You are energised by building relationships over the long term, not just closing the next deal

✓

You want to be part of a firm where your contribution is visible, valued and rewarded properly

✓

You are ambitious enough to want to grow with us as the business grows

Get in Touch

Let's Have
an Honest Conversation.

No hard sell. No pressure. Just an open conversation about who you are, what you are looking for and whether there might be something here worth exploring together.
