La devise de Leonid : "the right thing not the easy thing" "La bonne chose, pas la chose facile" en français c'est beaucoup moins sympa donc on l'a gardé en anglais. <img src="https://statics.teams.cdn.office.net/evergreen-assets/personal-expressions/v2/assets/emoticons/cool/default/20_f.png?v=v18" alt="Cool" height="20px" width="20px">Ce qui notre distingue, c’est notre approche axée sur le client : nous vous garantissons un niveau de service exceptionnel et nous nous engageons à fournir un processus honnête et personnalisé à vos candidat.e.s. En tant que cabinet spécialisé dans le financement de l’innovation et la gouvernance d'entreprise, nous sommes de véritables experts en la matière.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Chez Leonid, nous travaillons sur la base d’un modèle dit ‘’retained’’. C’est-à-dire que nos clients payent un tiers de nos honoraires sous forme d’acompte et bloquent ainsi un tiers du temps de l’une de nos ressources : c’est une des raisons qui nous permet une telle réactivité !&nbsp;&nbsp;Pourquoi cette méthode ?&nbsp;&nbsp;Nous souhaitons établir de réels partenariats et se positionner comme une réelle extension de votre équipe recrutement. Notre objectif : vous connaître au mieux pour vous fournir un service personnalisé et de qualité avec le minimum d’incertitudes.&nbsp;&nbsp;Voici un guide pour vous éclairer sur les avantages de notre approche par rapport au recrutement « traditionnel » au succès : (Link to the retained vs contingency page)&nbsp;

Grâce à Leonid Live - notre plateforme d'entretiens vidéo sur mesure – nous redonnons vie à la candidature. Nous enregistrons de courtes vidéos de présentation avec les candidat.e.s et leur permettons de mettre en avant des aspects relatifs à leurs personnalités et à leurs motivations.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Le Magic Month efface toute incertitude liée au processus de recrutement. Nous fonctionnons avec un calendrier prédéfini et nous avons des étapes claires et précise du jour 1 jusqu’au jour de prise de poste du candidat. Plus aucune inquiétude quant à la durée du processus ! Leonid s’engage à pourvoir tous les rôles sous 30 jours, ce qui est 3 à 4 fois plus rapide que la durée moyenne du marché !&nbsp;&nbsp;

Leonid Group est un cabinet de recrutement spécialisé dans les métiers du financement de l’innovation et de la gouvernance d’entreprise.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Basées à Londres, Barcelone et à Paris, nos équipes sont composées de consultants et consultantes expert.e.s de leur domaine et sont animées par le désir d’offrir un meilleur processus de recrutement tant pour leurs client.e.s, que pour les candidat.e.s !&nbsp;&nbsp;Nous avons effectué des placements dans plus de 30 pays différents !&nbsp;<h5> </h5>

We work on a retained search basis. In other words, our clients pay us an up-front fee before we embark on a candidate search.
Why do we do this? We believe that the traditional &lsquo;contingency&rsquo; recruitment model is flawed; paying only once a placement has been made simply does not work in the best interests of the hiring company. Instead, we take a true partnership approach; acting as an extension of our clients&rsquo; own in-house talent acquisition team to deliver exceptional service and the highest levels of candidate care. To understand the benefits of the Leonid approach versus contingency recruiters, we have produced&nbsp;<a href="https://www.leonid-group.com/retained-vs-contingency/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">this simple guide</a> to help you understand the differences.

<h5>Our clients love receiving their LeonidLive shortlists! While the first step in an interview process is usually a screening call, we take this one step further.</h5>
We produce 5-10 minute video interviews with a member of our talent acquisition team (with questions set by you) and these enable you to get an instant feel for a candidate&rsquo;s passion and communication skills &ndash; things which cannot be ascertained from a CV alone.

We work on a retained search basis. In other words, our clients pay us an up-front fee before we embark on a candidate search.&nbsp;There are two further payment stages, the final one is only due once the candidate has successfully completed their probation period with you.
Why do we do this?
We believe that the traditional &lsquo;contingency&rsquo; recruitment model is flawed; paying only one a placement has been made simply does not work in the best interests of the hiring company.&nbsp;Instead, we take a true partnership approach; acting as an extension of our clients&rsquo; own in-house talent acquisition team to deliver exceptional service and the highest levels of candidate care.

<h3>Leonid was founded out of a desire to redefine the recruitment process.</h3>
After spending over a decade in the industry, our founder James Mitchell had become disillusioned with the traditional recruitment model and decided to take action.
Armed with only his solid experience, his drive and a MacBook gifted by his father to support the cause, James set off on a mission to help organisations by improving their experiences of hiring team members.
Today, James continues to head up the company, alongside a passionate team who support Leonid&rsquo;s mission.&nbsp;Unlike other recruiters, our team don't work to hard financial targets. Instead, we focus on building long-lasting relationships and act as an extension of in-house talent acquisition teams.
Check out our short video here to learn the story of Leonid in James's own words.

James Mitchell créé Leonid Group en 2018.

<h1>NOTRE HISTOIRE.</h1>

<h2>CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY.</h2>
Leonid is passionate about a number of causes and is committed to being socially and environmentally responsible.

<h2>BENEFITS OF RETAINED RECRUITMENT</h2>

Contingency recruitment essentially means ‘no placement, no fee’. A recruiter is tasked with filling a role but chances are, they may not be working exclusively on it, and if they don’t succeed in filling the role, then their work goes unrewarded and they move on to the next job.

Le recrutement au succès équivaut à : « pas de placement, pas d’honoraires ».&nbsp;Vous travaillez avec un.e consultant.e dont le travail ne sera pas rémunéré s’il ne trouve pas de candidat.e adéquat.e et qui n’a en plus de cela certainement pas d’exclusivité sur le poste.

Lorsque que l’on travaille sur le modèle “retained” le.a consultant.e en recrutement facture une partie des honoraires en amont du process : c’est la garantie que son travail sera (au moins en partie rémunéré) et la garantie pour vous qu’il ou qu’elle aura la capacité d’investir des moyens plus conséquents !

<h2>DRAWBACKS OF CONTINGENCY RECRUITMENT</h2>

<h2>QUELLES SONT LES DIFFÉRENCES?</h2>Chez Leonid, nous travaillons sur la base d’un modèle dit ‘’retained’’. C’est-à-dire que nos clients payent un tiers de nos honoraires sous forme d’acompte et bloquent ainsi un tiers du temps de l’une de nos ressources&nbsp;: c’est une des raisons qui nous permet une telle réactivité&nbsp;! Et ça fonctionne très bien : nous avons un taux de réussite de 98%, d’excellents retours et un grand nombre de clients réguliers opérant dans les secteurs du financement de l’innovation et de la gouvernance d'entreprise.&nbsp;&nbsp;Pour les entreprises qui ont l’habitude de travailler avec des cabinets spécialisés dans le recrutement à succès, le modèle ‘’retained’’ peut paraitre un peu déroutant, mais pas d’inquiétude&nbsp;: voici une vue d’ensemble des avantages et inconvénients du recrutement à succès et du recrutement dit “retained”.

When working to a retained model, the recruiter collects a partial fee from clients before the recruitment process begins.The remainder of the fee is paid upon successful placement of the candidate. The agency will work on an exclusive basis meaning they are the only ones working on the role.

<h2>WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES</h2><h2> OF EACH APPROACH?</h2>At Leonid, we work on a retained model, regardless of the role seniority. This means we do take a fee up front, before we begin the search for your perfect candidate.We believe this works very well; we have a 98% success rate, excellent feedback and lots of repeat custom from companies in the corporate governance and R&amp;D tax sectors. However, we understand that for hiring companies, it can be a bit of a leap at first, particularly for those who are used to working with contingency recruiters as the norm.

About the company &amp; role
A multinational biopharmaceutical company which specialises in the development and manufacture of biosimilars as well as offering end-to-end B2B CDMO services is currently seeking a new Head of Legal, Compliance &amp; Data Privacy to support the business, reporting directly into the CEO. This role will also sit on the Executive Committee and manage an existing team of three.
Primarily, this role will be a strategic stakeholder supporting and guiding the rest of the ExCo and wider business on all key legal and regulatory issues (including compliance and privacy) as well as managing and directing the workflow of three Senior Counsels split across Spain and South America.
The business has significant operations in Europe and South America but also offers services worldwide (notably across major markets in the EU, US and LATAM). The business also operates under a unique corporate structure which has afforded them the ability to remain agile, autonomous and entrepreneurial after more than a decade in operation whilst also experiencing extensive growth and support from a larger corporate entity.
After a number of years, the incumbent Head of Legal is relocating for a new opportunity and the business is seeking an experienced Head of Legal/General Counsel to take over the function(s) and team.
The role is primarily based in Madrid at the global headquarters (relocation assistance available and a staggered relocation option can be discussed for those coming from overseas); there will also be some travel to LATAM and elsewhere as per business need.
&nbsp;
What&rsquo;s on offer?
This role has substantial scope and oversight from day one, with a seat on the ExCo and direct reporting line into the CEO as well as inheriting an existing team structure (and likely further scope to hire in the short and mid-term).
The function takes direct ownership over everything related to Legal as well as Compliance, Corporate Governance and (from a legal perspective) Data Privacy. The role also offers international complexity and you would be joining at a period of exciting and sustained growth within the company and the wider sector.
A fully comprehensive compensation package is available for this role which will include Bonus, Long Term Incentive as well as the usual Insurances, Private Healthcare etc. Significant relocation assistance can be offered where needed. For guidance purposes only (DOE), a combination of base, bonus (circa 25%) and LTI will afford a package value in excess of &euro;250,000.
&nbsp;
About you
As this is a senior position within the business, this role will suit those who have previously held a &ldquo;Head of&rdquo; position in a multinational legal function (ideally with previous oversight of Compliance and Privacy).
Due to the nature of the sector, this role will suit those already operating in the pharmaceutical space OR directly related sectors (i.e. Medical Devices, Biotechnology) at minimum you would need to have both the passion for the space and an appreciation of the complex regulatory frameworks that impact this area.
Fluency in Spanish is not required as the business is international and the team already has good coverage of this to native level, however in order to effectively build relationships, especially within parts of the LATAM business it&rsquo;s likely you will at minimum have conversational level Spanish and a keen interest in utilising the company&rsquo;s funded Spanish Course(s).
For guidance purposes only, you&rsquo;re likely to have in excess of 15 years of post-qualified experience with a good portion of this gained in-house in the pharmaceutical industry. Fundamentally, a pragmatic and strategic approach to legal is required here; this is a dynamic business that are used to having a highly effective Legal lead and will be expecting strong and effective decision making and advice from their Legal function.
This role will require relocation to Madrid, applications are welcome from those already in Spain as well as those with experience in markets across Europe and the US who are able and willing to relocate.
This is a strategic role and the business is willing to wait for the right person, however due to the importance of this role and timelines for the incumbent, candidates would ideally be available to start a new role within 3 months or less.
