Life science recruiter Hobson Prior has been granted Swiss Cantonal and Federal licences.

The firm will operate through wholly owned subsidiary, Hobson Prior Switzerland. The licences permit the firm to trade fully in Switzerland.

Managing director Matthew Perrett says: “Switzerland is a key market for the European life science industry and one which is central to our development plans over the coming years. Obtaining our licences will allow us to further enhance our services and is a demonstration of our commitment to our Swiss-based clients.”
