Life Sciences Consulting & Resourcing Solutions in Chicago, IL
Chicago holds the largest concentration of life science activity in the Midwest, and its R&D facilities and established manufacturing base produce a well-qualified professional workforce. Redbock has worked with scientific companies in the city since 2012. Over this time, we have developed a detailed understanding of the resourcing challenges facing local businesses. Our purpose is to provide Chicago organizations with the expertise a regulated program demands, at the point the program requires it.
Most of our Chicago work is with large biotech and medical device companies, as well as large- to medium-sized pharma organizations. These clients typically approach us once a program has exceeded the capacity of its internal team, or a required specialist skill is unavailable in-house. We identify consultants with direct, relevant experience who can contribute from the outset, so project timelines are protected.
