Recruit new medical equipment research and development director

The outbreak of COVID-19 epidemic in 2020 has brought great impact to the domestic and global economy, but at the same time, many fields have also ushered in new development opportunities. There is no doubt that the epidemic has made people pay more attention to health problems than ever before. Driven by domestic policies and industry dividends, the recruitment market pattern in the medical and health field will change in the post-epidemic era, and more new jobs and opportunities will appear.

Medical health is one of the key development areas in China in the future. According to the "14th Five-Year Plan" published at the end of 2020 and the outline of long-term goals for 2035, China will implement the important plan of "promoting the construction of a healthy China in an all-round way". In addition, delegates and members of the National People's Congress and the National People's Congress actively made suggestions and suggestions in the medical and health field this year, covering key directions such as the transformation of "Internet+medical health" and the development of biomedical industrialization.

Under the guidance of the national strategic planning, the government has taken active measures to support the development of the industry. According to "20021hanergy Asia salary guide", China government supports the innovation and research and development of new drugs by encouraging investment and authorizing business development subsidies, and China's life science industry will continue its fierce development momentum last year in 20021,which will also drive the recruitment boom in medical and health-related fields.

From the perspective of capital, in 2020, the medical and health sector, represented by medicine, medical devices and medical services, is one of the hottest investment fields, with the total financing exceeding 654.38+05 billion yuan, ranking first in the investment fields in the whole year, among which the venture capital in biomedicine, medical devices and diagnosis/tools increased by 654.38+000% compared with last year. The Salary Guide points out that private equity investment and venture capital institutions still attach importance to the development potential of the life science industry, and funds will continue to flood into the industry in 20021year, thus promoting more relevant recruitment opportunities.

Driven by the government's incentive policies and investment institutions, local medical and health enterprises in China have ushered in the opportunity of rapid development.

"China's economy has taken the lead in recovering from the epidemic, and the domestic market has also provided a broad development space for the medical and health industry. The proportion of local enterprises in this field is increasing, and the employment opportunities provided are becoming more and more diverse and rich. " Lan Ximeng, executive director of Hennessy Greater China, said.

At the same time, driven by domestic policies and market trends, local and foreign medical and health enterprises in China are facing fierce competition in talent recruitment, and their talent strategies are also facing transformation. Hennessy believes that local medical and health enterprises will deploy talent plans according to their own development needs, while foreign medical and health enterprises represented by pharmaceutical companies will seek new business development models in the face of changes in the domestic industry environment, and then adjust the focus of recruitment tasks.

With the further development and subdivision of the medical and health industry, compound and professional talents will be more favored by enterprises.

Local enterprises continue to make efforts, and talents in sub-sectors are sought after.

With the rapid development of local medical and health enterprises, the demand for experienced professionals has surged. In addition to marketing experts, it also includes R&D personnel in the field of innovative drugs and talents with digital skills. In addition, candidates with working experience in foreign-funded enterprises are more likely to be sought after by local enterprises.

In addition, local innovative pharmaceutical companies pay more and more attention to the business development department and regard it as one of the most important core competitiveness. The main functions of BD include authorized cooperation, that is, on the one hand, it helps enterprises to introduce new patents to save research and development time, on the other hand, it helps enterprises sell their own pipelines to make profits.

Hannash said that BD positions require a lot of skills, and excellent candidates should not only master pharmaceutical knowledge, but also have business awareness. Therefore, doctors with pharmaceutical business experience are usually the first choice for enterprises.

With the vigorous development of local medical and health enterprises, mature large-scale medical equipment enterprises and innovative enterprises with financing support show strong recruitment momentum, attracting outstanding talents through generous treatment and broad development space.

"For Hanergy, the proportion of the local market in our overall business is rising, especially for customers in the medical and health fields. We believe that the growth of local enterprises means more development opportunities for talents, and the healthy flow of talents is constantly stimulating the innovation potential of China enterprises. " Lan Ximeng said.

Hannash said that some local enterprises can offer attractive salaries and even equity incentives to relevant talents. If they can serve in the management, they can also gain a greater say in the development of the company.

However, talents in different career stages have different wishes to join local enterprises. Hannash said that executives of foreign-funded enterprises are usually more willing to join local enterprises to "expand their territory" because of their salary and management authority, while middle-level candidates prefer the more mature and perfect training system of foreign-funded enterprises.

According to Hennessy's statistics, 80% of the respondents in the medical and health industry said that they would consider the opportunities of local enterprises, but for jobs at the same level, they would give priority to multinational enterprises. Under normal circumstances, local enterprises offer an average salary increase of 20-30%, which can better attract talents with foreign investment background. In addition, encouraging middle and high-level stocks/equity is more attractive to local enterprises, and some companies even implement the welfare policy of full shareholding.

The change of policy environment and the change of recruitment strategy of foreign-funded enterprises

With the implementation of centralized bidding policy for drugs in China, the industry ecology of foreign-funded pharmaceutical companies is facing reconstruction. Due to the high production cost of R&D and its products, the price advantage is weakened in the competition with local enterprises, so the sales of some products in China market are also declining.

Affected by this, foreign-funded enterprises have launched countermeasures and actively adjusted their business strategies, and the focus of talent recruitment tasks has also changed.

Lan Ximeng believes that because multinational pharmaceutical companies usually deploy their early R&D departments overseas, their domestic market teams are mainly responsible for R&D, production and sales tasks in the middle and late stages. The current centralized drug procurement policy will promote the recruitment of foreign-funded enterprises to be more diversified.

On the one hand, foreign pharmaceutical companies actively seek cooperation with local enterprises, participate in R&D and production, in order to seek more space for product price reduction, thus increasing the demand for related posts. At the same time, foreign-funded enterprises are actively looking for experienced medical insurance negotiators to better meet domestic development needs.

On the other hand, foreign pharmaceutical companies are exploring new business development models under the development of integrated diagnosis and treatment models such as Internet hospitals. In this mode, enterprises invest a lot of resources to build their own digital marketing platform and establish the relationship among hospitals, patients and products. Therefore, talents who master digital technology will be paid more and more attention by foreign-funded enterprises.

R&D talents are in short supply and cross-border talents are in demand.

With the country encouraging the localization of medical devices and other sub-sectors, local enterprises have ushered in a huge development space, and the demand for related positions such as research and development, procurement, production, sales and operation of medical devices and equipment is increasing. According to the salary guide, in 20021year, a large number of R&D personnel, especially technicians, will be recruited in medical devices and pharmaceutical machinery related industries.

Hennessy believes that there is a shortage of talents engaged in scientific research in China at present, and the China government and academic circles pay more and more attention to the cultivation of basic scientific research talents, and have issued relevant policies to deal with it. For enterprises in the medical and health field, R&D talents are particularly scarce, and many enterprises are recruiting talents across industries. Taking medical device enterprises as an example, due to the shortage of counterpart talents, talents from automobile, material engineering and other fields will also be concerned.

"The development of the recruitment market in the medical and health field needs the support of more professionals. For the domestic market, it is especially necessary for Industry-University-Research to form a joint force to cultivate talents needed by the industry. " Lan Ximeng said.

Improve the quality of the workplace to cope with market changes.

Hannash said that local enterprises can often provide more attraction in terms of salary, functional authority and so on. However, foreign-funded enterprises have advantages in internal training, overseas job rotation and process systematization.

Under the competition between local and foreign medical and health enterprises in recruiting talents, candidates should make judgments and choices according to their own conditions.

In addition, compared with foreign-funded enterprises, they pay more attention to the ability of process-driven and executive level, and local enterprises have higher requirements for both strategic thinking and practical work. Therefore, candidates who are willing to make changes need to be prepared accordingly.

The Salary Guide suggests that in the turbulent market, employees must keep up with all industry trends, so it is very important to constantly improve their skills, especially their digital skills. Both job seekers and employees must master the latest skill set in order to maintain a certain competitiveness in the workplace and better meet the possible changes and development opportunities in the future market.
