Case Study: Pop Science achieves faster sourcing of niche pharma talent and stronger brand presence with LinkedIn Talent Solutions

How a pharma recruitment firm sources its niche candidates

Pop Science is a London‑based recruitment agency specializing in science and pharmaceutical roles, from alt‑drug scientists to clinical development and engineering positions. The firm’s core challenge was finding highly specialized candidates quickly, staying ahead of in‑house recruiters, and building brand awareness to attract innovative clients and create long‑term talent pipelines.

By adopting LinkedIn Talent Solutions, Pop Science gained faster access to niche candidates across the UK, Europe and beyond, built a passive pipeline of talent, and amplified its employer brand through regular industry content (growing a following of 1,000+). The platform also streamlined workflows—tracking, organizing and speeding up sourcing—so recruiters move quicker than competitors, deliver faster placements, win new clients and free up leadership time for higher‑value activities.
