A life sciences firm built around people.

Stark Associates LLC was incorporated on September 9, 2016. From the start the firm combined two kinds of work: finding the right people for regulated roles, and delivering defined services such as clinical research support, regulatory writing and validation. Ten years on, that combination is still what sets us apart. Our recruiters understand the work because our delivery teams do it.

What we believe

In regulated industries a hire is never just a hire. The wrong person creates documentation errors, audit findings and schedule slip. The right person quietly keeps a program on track. We take that seriously on both sides of the table: candidates get honest guidance about each opportunity, and employers get people who have been screened by someone who knows what good looks like.

Who we work with

We support pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device, diagnostics, consumer healthcare and cosmetics companies, from early-stage teams preparing for their first regulatory milestone to established manufacturers running multiple sites.

Our values

• Expertise: specialist knowledge of the roles we fill and the services we deliver.
• Honesty: clear advice, even when the answer is "not this role".
• Quality: work that stands up to an audit.
• Integrity: confidentiality for candidates and clients alike.
