RSA Expands Into Switzerland

RSA a global resourcing provider to the Life Science and Healthcare sectors today announces the formation of RSA AG in Zug, Switzerland.

RSA delivers a unique range of resourcing solutions through RSA Search & Selection, RSA Consulting, RSA Interims and RSA Pharmarecruit. The Swiss operation will allow RSA to enhance the services it already provides to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies based there. Over the past few years many health care companies have located their headquarters in Zug, making it an ideal location for RSA . The new company will be backed by the full resource of the RSA Headquarters in Hertfordshire, U.K. - which is already Europe’s largest provider of specialist resourcing services to the Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology industries - and RSA GmbH in Frankfurt.

Nick Stephens , CEO of RSA comments: This is a very exciting time for us. The opening of RSA AG in Switzerland follows the successful establishment of our German office in 2004 and will ensure that we continue to grow and maintain our position as the number one pharmaceutical resourcing company in Europe. The presence of so many pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies in Switzerland creates an ongoing demand both for high calibre individuals and for our unique consulting services. Having a base in Switzerland will help RSA to meet the needs of new and existing clients thereî.

Switzerland has a long history of innovation in pharmaceuticals and biotechnology and in recent years a steady stream of start-up and expanding biotech companies have been springing up, taking advantage of the scientific strength of the nation.
